Is this a hotel room rate?

No. It is the whole land package divided by its nights — room, meals, car, driver and guiding together. A room rate on its own would be a much smaller number and would not be what you pay.

Why does a longer trip cost less per night?

Arrival and departure transfers, the guide mobilisation and the car booking are largely fixed. Spread over five nights instead of three, each night carries less of them.

What is the cheapest night possible?

US$114 per person, on a 6D5N at eight travellers. That is the floor of the published card, not a promotion.

Do these figures hold for 2026?

They are the 2025 card, which is the most recent published. We confirm the current number in writing before you pay anything.

What that figure actually buys

It is not a room rate. Four things are inside every night of a land package.

A standard hotel room, twin share. The resorts are not in this figure.

Three meals

Breakfast, lunch and dinner on a set menu, every full day.

The car and driver

Private, all day, with fuel. Not a shared shuttle or a per-transfer fee.

The guiding

A tour leader, plus entrance and village donation fees at every stop.
