Asked on January 3rd, 2025I want to know if this is a single occupancy accommodation for a solo traveler
Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperator•Written January 2025Accommodation on tour is twin share with another client of the same sex. If we have no other 'same sex solo travellers' in the group then client will have single accommodation at no additional cost. Unfortunately I cannot guarantee that at time of booking.

Asked on August 12th, 20231/2 Zimmer oder was wäre der Preis für 1 Person?
- Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperator•Written August 2023
The 9-day Gorillas & Nile River Encounter Adventure Accommodated Tour makes use of twin share accommodation. Rooms are basic with en-suite facilities, but from time to time some rooms may be shared facilities. The price is per person sharing - which means you will share the room with another Acacia client of the same gender.

Asked on May 6th, 2022I would need a single accommodation, please let me know if it's possible on this tour.
- Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperator•Written May 2022
Unfortunately we do not offer Single Supplements on any Adventure-style tours. You would be sharing a twin bed room/chalet with a fellow solo traveller of the same sex.
