Last night I finalized arrangements with Peter Tours for the safari. In the end, I decided to go cheaper, with a group rather than on my own. Tho when we meet, I will ask about how many in the group and say 2 others would be fine with me. He is coming to the Outpost on Friday, Sept. 17 to pick up his deposit ($300 USD cash) and to drop off a sleeping bag for me to use. I pay the guide the rest when he comes to pick me up on the 25th. I feel very relieved that the safari part is now sorted.
I am sorry things didn't work out with Amanda and African Scenic Safaris. They would be great for someone with a little more flexibility in their plans.
