As stated in our conditions of travel a limit of 15kg of luggage applies to all tours. This is due to the vehicle has limited space and occupational health and safety reasons for our guides, so please keep your luggage to a maximum of 15 kgs in a backpack or soft overnight bag with a small day pack for easy access to camera, film, sunblock etc.
Please try and keep to that limit so we can ensure we can carry everyone's luggage in our trailers. If you can try and keep your belongings in one pack or case then this also assists packing. As a general rule if you can't carry it, we won't either. It's your responsibility to pack bags into the trailer. If your trip returns to the place your are starting your trip from, think about storing excess luggage to await your return. If you're not returning to the place you started your trip, think about freight forwarding luggage. All luggage that is more than 20kg must be marked as "HEAVY" so our staff avoid injury by picking it up off the ground without knowing.
