I think this is like RSSC. When you do the Safari "package" or "the cruise" you get a price that is the value. We also have a nice sized group here so that has helped.

Then when you add on hotels etc onto that package as just one or two couples you find them higher than we are getting in the group - just like the RSSC hotels usually are. In these cases you can often do the hotels cheaper on an independent basis. It just depends you just have to check pricing.

However, with the pre and posts "trips" it may be more reasonable if we have a "group" of people going. Just one or two couples the rates are going to be higher. That is why I suggest throwing things around and then as a group come up with one or two ideas that the majority are interested in then we price these. We have lots of time to come up with these ideas. Then if there are not enough interested we just stick with the basic safari and that is fine.

I think the Victoria falls option sounds fine.

Botswana Leslie mentions on another post so I am editing. Botswana is supposed to be great for animals and scenery - not as luxurious accommodations as South AFrica but the Delta is supposed to be fantastic. I researched it a little bit - mostly tented camps. Not a lot of research from me this is new terriority I dont know alot about any of this. So all of you who like to research people check it out.
