Changes to Africa tours September 2009
Budget Expeditions become Overland Expeditions

From 30 September 2009, all Budget Expeditions tours will be transferred into the Overland Expeditions travel style.

If you are booked on a Budget Expeditions tour to Africa departing after 30 September, you will be switched to an identical tour in the Overland Expeditions travel style. In reality there will be very little difference in terms of how your new tour will operate. The tour will have the same name, follow the same itinerary, stay in the same accommodation, travel on the same vehicle and you will enjoy the services of a Tucan Travel tour leader and driver, just like on Budget Expeditions tours. The most significant changes are the addition of included excursions to your itinerary, and the move from paying a Local Fund to paying a Local Payment. The Local Payment will be higher than the Local Fund you would have paid because of the included excursions.
