Anything is fine but if you can afford it consider the amount of education and dedication of your guide. Tip them well if they if you think they deserve it. We got off of boat a number of people tipped nothing. Because we asked so many questions and received so many answers we felt like we had been with a professional and tipped well. You can watch these programs on television but consider the first hand real time experience with all questions answered and honest "I don't knpws" rather than some B.S. It is a good feeling to reward the sincere environmentalist, naturalist.

Most passengers book through the boat trip company and they come and fetch you from your B and B or hotel, so most people did not take a car and park it. From what I recall, there was a parking area with some cars parked in it. I would have happily left my car there if we had not been picked up

The best is to get holed of the Parks Board they will give you the correct answer Thanks

N4 towards Middleburg, N11 towards Ermelo and N2 towards Pongola, approx 616km's, 6.5 hours. Exit 375 on the N2, turn left into R618 and drive for 25km and arrive at St Lucia.

Ciao, abbiamo fatto l'escursione sull'estuario lo scorso anno ad Agosto e ci è molto piaciuta. Le agenzie private che la propongono sono molte, tra queste mi ricordo la Advantage... ma noi - consigliati in tal senso da amici che vivono a Durban - abbiamo preferito optare per quella che organizza il Parco: meno costosa (155 Rand a persona anziché 180) e si vedono le stesse cose; non ricordo tutti gli orari, noi abbiamo scelto la partenza delle 15,00 con rientro alle 17,30. La prenotazione si può fare anche lo stesso giorno dell'escursione presso l'ufficio del Parco che si trova nella piccola cittadina di S. Lucia. Buon Sudafrica!

I would recommand you the Lidiko Lodge in San Lucia. They have a family cottage with all you need for self catering.
