Money & tipping
Although Zimbabwe has their own currency, almost everything is calculated in US dollars. There are some ATMs, for instance in Victoria Falls, but getting cash may be a challenge. We therefore advise you to bring enough cash; US dollars is preferred.
During our phototour, all lodges, transport and meals & drinks are included as mentioned.
Tips are not expected but much appreciated. In general, US$5-10 per person per day for the guide and US$5-10 per person per day for the lodge staff is suggested. The guide is paid his tip directly at the end of the last safari and the lodge usually has a tipping box for staff.
Souvenirs, helicopter rides and any other additional personal expenses can usually be paid with credit card (VISA and Mastercard most widely accepted).
