Sally
Asked on July 19th, 2024Can you please advise on the quote for a single room? Can you please advise the quote for an upgrade to a 5* hotel?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2024
If you would like to add on a single supplement the additional cost would be $1,020 USD. The single supplement excludes Day 4 (overnight train) & 6-8 (Guesthouse/Homestay), where you will be in shared accommodation and is subject to availability. Since this is a pre packaged itinerary we are not able to upgrade any of the accommodations however, on this trip we will be staying at 4 star + properties.

Asked on September 1st, 2016Can you help us with our visas if needed?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written September 2016
Unfortunately we are unable to give visa advice due to the vast number of nationalities which our customers represent. Some nationalities can travel freely over borders, where others require advance permission to enter. There are also changes in requirements from time to time. We recommend checking your local embassy or consulate's website for the latest up to date information.
