YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED                                                                    TOP OF PAGE

1)  Can I combine a tour of both the Serengeti and Masai Mara? Yes you can. However you need to realise that the time you will have to travel by road on the day you cross from the Serengeti to the Mara, is about 9-11 hours which includes a border crossing. The other option is to fly though that increases up the cost.

2) Is it safe to change money on the streets in Vietnam? If you are offered by someone on the street to give you a better rate of exchange than the banks can, be prepared for you are probably about to be "ripped off." Either you will be given counterfeit notes or they will "not have enough change" and vanish up a nearby alley to get change for you - never to be seen again.

3) What is the coldest I will be on Kilimanjaro? That is a difficult question to answer as it depends on what time of year you plan to trek and also, wind speed at the time. Generally, winds reach about 20km/h at most which pushes temperatures down substantially. Normally, summit temperatures range from about -8 to -20C deg though it can get colder.
