Guest Houses
We love to include small, intimate owner-managed guesthouses in our itineraries especially where the request is for an off-the-beaten-track itinerary. Guesthouses are smaller, cheaper accommodation options that suit self-drivers and those wanting to meet people and experience local culture.
