Please consider what you expect from your vacation. Do you want to be entertained, or just quiet and relaxation? Or do you want to take in impressions, adventure, and gain experience? The latter is my speciality. It is of great importance that my clients select the right tour for their personal expectations. My policy is to discuss my clients' desires, and design a package that fits these as best as possible. In cases where I sense that the client wants something that I cannot offer, I will let them know in advance, rather that risk disappointment. Camping: This is what I offer: Iglu-type tents where you can stand. Each guest gets a roll of bedding, consisting of matress, sleeping bag and pillow with fresh linen, and a towel. Camping beds are available to those who prefer to sleep under the clear sky „million star hotel“. But I cannot take both along because of space limitations, so you must chose in the beginning. Further I take chairs and a table. I will prepare the meals in my field kitchen, but help from the guests is expected in general site activities. Upon request we can limit our lodging to official campsites with facilities, but I know from experience that the remote and lonely sites are really preferred and appreciated. In some remote sites there is no water and no toilet, and I carry enough water for basic hygiene. The mobile toilet is established out of sight for privacy. In any case I plan the route so that we can take up fresh water at least every second day. You will understand that this camplife requires quite a bit of equipment to be comfortable. Therefore I must ask the guests to bring limited personal baggage in flexible bags rather that suitcases, for easier stowage. Accommodation in lodges: Other than camping in tents, I also offer tours where we stay in lodges, hotels or guestfarms. These have to be booked in advance, and all reservations must be confirmed. Prices can vary a lot, (around $200/person/night) therefore you need to tell me your preference; economy or top of the range! For the months of July-September some accommodation is booked out a year ahead, which makes it very important to start planning early enough. Combination Camping/Lodges: In some locations, there is a choice between a campsite, where we can pitch our tents, or bungalows for self-catering or full service lodges. Here I need to know your preference, camping as often as possible, or more in lodges, or lowest price, when there is a choice? Are you tempted? Then please take a look at my tour examples. |
