Travellers opting for a 2023 small group experience with Acacia Africa, have an additional nine countries to choose from.
Lesotho, Eswatini, Malawi, Uganda, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, Kenya, and Zambia now feature on the operator’s Small Group Adventure Camping and Small Group Adventure Accommodated tours, with each trip taking a maximum of 16 people.
To mark the news, Acacia will be offering discounts of 15 per cent on Small Group Adventure Camping Tours and 10 per cent on Small Group Adventure Accommodated tours if booked before 28 February. The discount will be available on all 2023 scheduled departures and is subject to availability.
“We have expanded and broadened our small group destinations and realised the demand for ‘TRUE’ small group travel in Africa,” Arno Delport, marketing manager at Acacia Africa, said.
“Priced from only AU$935pp + optional Adventure Pass from US$80pp (AU$112) for a four-day Kruger Safari, every Small Group Adventure is packed with immersive experiences from seeing the wildlife to engaging with local communities.
“We will continue to run these trips in our custom-built vehicles – the extra space and added comfort allows clients to really stretch out on longer drives and enjoy unequalled window access throughout.
“All the memorable African experiences of Acacia’s Adventure Tours will remain – but without the crowd!”
The first country in Africa to offer a ‘digital nomad’ visa, Namibia, is destined to be a popular destination in 2023. According to Acacia, remote working has boosted bleisure travel, and the opportunity to take several trips in the Land of the Brave, and across neighbouring countries, over a six-month period is an inviting prospect.
Etosha’s salt pan, the Fish River Canyon, Spitzkoppe’s bald granite peaks, the Namib Desert and the dunes of Swakopmund, are all on offer with Acacia’s new additions. All of these locations feature on the 19-day Cape Town to Victoria Falls, the Small Group Adventure Camping Experience, also including wildlife viewing in Botswana’s Chobe National Park, a slow paced scenic mokoro safari on the Okavango Delta, and back in Namibia, game drives in Etosha National Park.
Acacia’s 13-day Small Group Kenya & Tanzania Accommodated Adventure combines classic Africa with stays in inexpensive, yet superior lodges and tented camps. The complete itinerary includes game drives in the Masai Mara, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, a Masai Culture village walk in Arusha, and a stay on the Spice Island of Zanzibar.
All prices exclude return flight. Discount excludes Adventure Pass. All offers subject to availability. Acacia Africa’s Small Group Adventure Camping and Small Group Adventure Accommodated Tours are aimed at travellers aged 18+. Acacia offers pre and post accommodation and a wide selection of city breaks and short stays.
