My thoughts are that those that are staying four nights at the last camp instead of three nights like the rest of the group, should have the option of chosing the order of the camps so that they do get to spend that extra day at the camp they prefer.
It is not absolutely necessary that those that are staying four nights be in the same camps. If one wants Madikwe Hills and another wants Leopard Hills we could accommodate those wishes. However it would be much easier for charter planes etc if they were at the same camp.
First I need to define WHO the people are that will be staying 4 nights and the name of the camp where they prefer to spend that extra time. Lets see how it works out. I am assuming Leopard Hills would be the choice for the extra night as it is the most expensive camp and therefore offers a better perceived value.
I think assigning exactly who is in each of the two groups and what camp they start with at this time is premature. Many who are booked now will cancel, and a waitlist will develop and things will change tremendously in the next two years.
This assignment of groups can be 18 months from now. If we do it now I will be working on that list for 18 months.
So if you could post here or email me and tell me if you wish for 4 nights at the end and the camp where you prefer to spend that extra night we will see how it works out.
Earlier there was talk of going to Madikwe first with regards to taking Malaria pills for a shorter time. I did not comment but went along with that, but the truth is that no matter what order you go to the camps IF you chose take antimalarial drugs you will need them for 12 days either way. It really makes no difference.
2 days before, 3 days - 4 days in the malaria area, 7 days after you leave the area.
I assume we are 100% set with the dates as outlined originally unless I hear to the contrary.
