Safari tour reference numbers
Safari tour reference numbers
Each of our safaris has a specific reference number:
RT indicates a safari in Kenya
KS indicates a safari in Tanzania
The first number of the code indicates the city of departure
1 = departure from Nairobi - 2 = departure from Arusha - 4 = departure from Mombasa
The second number indicates the number of nights on safari.
The last number refers to a specific safari itinerary
Example: the safari RT 163 is a safari in Kenya (RT) that departs from Nairobi (1) and last for 6 nights (2) and describes the specific itinerary (3)

Days of departure for safari
Our safaris in Kenya and Tanzania have departures scheduled every week, operating on fixed days of the week indicated by “days of departure”. Our scheduled safari departures have international clients booked through agents all over the world. We can operate the same itineraries on any day of the week; however these would be operated as exclusive use departures which would require a customised quotation. Should any variations be required on a scheduled departure they would be considered exclusive departures and would require a customised quotation.

Driver-guides
In Kenya and Tanzania scheduled safaris are conducted by driver-guides who speak English. Many drivers are multi-lingual and additionally speak Spanish, Italian, French or German. Multi lingual drivers are provided depending on availability.
