Amazing! Thank you Liz.
I've never used agents on my trips so it was a good little exercise to
see what others are doing! My dealings with all local companies have
been super.
For me, it is important that most of my money is spent in the country
I'm in. On the other hand, one can argue that without overseas agents
many of these local outfitters will be out of business. So I understand
both sides of the issue! As long as I don't have to pay $600 more for
the same trip!
In the end, what's important is that we keep on going to Africa,
regardless of how much we pay!
BTW, on the whole, rates in East Africa are quoted and negotiated as
two people traveling together. If you are 3 or more, you will pay less.
The Rules of the Wild safari will cost closer to $800 for 6 people.
