I have been on a Kenya tour a few years ago, and we also had to share, which sounds scary but in fact it was fine, one lady with medical needs had her own room...
On the tour I did the Tour Manager said had anyone buddied up on plane etc or we’re friends if so did they want to stay together, at the end of the day, I am on a holiday to see and do things, sleeping is a small part, it isn’t what I would want if I could help it but it’s due to the nature of the lodges etc.. so in true British form we just got on with it and manage to have a laugh about it..
I would rather spend my money while away than put it on a room.
