Notably, the changes to the Guide / Chauffer Guide policy will include:-

·        Their accommodation & food has to be arranged by the Tour Company /client and pay direct. We could help you with recommending few locations within a budget of 20 to 25 USD [ Please call our Tours Department ]

·    Local Tour guides / Tour Leaders will be accepted at a fee of 80 USD, subject to the company taking full responsibility for communicating and accepting attached Guides Policy and this must be specifically requested in the reservation voucher 

·        All Guides will have to abide by the rules and regulations mentioned in Guides guidelines, attached herewith for the benefit of the Client / Tour Company / Service provider & themselves.

Also we would like to bring to your kind notice that there had been few occasions that where clients have had unclear perception about the concept of our camps.

It is utmost important that your clients are aware that we are a mobile camping operation and not a permanent camp or a lodge. 

We appreciate you handing over a copy of the same to your Guide with an explanation.
