Hi

A couple of questions regarding the above holiday:

1. How many people are booked to go on this holiday (just curious)

2. Do you have details on the optional excursions and costs. Can all these be booked on arrival? What's the preferred currency for paying for optional excursions?

Thank you.

Anita
