Hi Karen
Prices haven't been set for 2011 optional excursions yet but I have copied in our prices for 2010 as a guide. I expect prices will be similar for your trip but bear in mind that some may change.
I would allow £20-30 a day for food and drinks, though I'm sure you could do it for less if you want to.
Kind regards
Olly, your editor
