Hi Cindy,
We recommend that travellers take both cash and credit cards - travellers cheques are difficult to exchange in Eastern Africa and credit cards are becoming more widely accepted.
When buying the optional excursions these will need to be paid in cash. We quote the price in £ Sterling but Kenyan Schillings are also accepted at the local exchange rate.
Finally, information on all the optional tours available on your trip, both the main tour and add-on will be included in the information sent to you 2-3 weeks before you travel.
Kind regards
Julia, your editor.
