Welcome
To MW Tours 2019
Great Value Tours to Africa & Subcontinent

We’re excited, to bring you a fresh approach to MW Tours that you haven’t seen before. With a new look, personalised photos and amazing new experi-
ences, we are certainly showing you why we have the best value tours to Africa & Subcontinent! Returning to our tour selection, are of course our signature tours, once
again, together with some new adventures, that we’ve experienced ourselves, to bring you the best of the best in each region.

For those of you who are new to MW Tours, you’ll find everything you need to choose your next holiday, right here in this brochure. Think of it as your complete Africa &
Subcontinent handbook. Filled with so many amazing experiences, that are sure to bring you back again and again.

To get to know our new layout, we’ll take you through understanding what sets MW Tours apart. We’ll help you understand our tours, activity grading and pricing, so you
can make an educated decision on which amazing experience you want to be a part of.

This year see’s us combine Africa & Subcontinent into the same brochure. One of the main reasons why we’ve combined this brochure, is because of the similarity of experi-
ences, from overland safari’s in desert surrounds to tropical expeditions to see earths largest mammal. We also include a new look into this region with the introduction
of everything from camping to high end luxury. We also have a selection of tours for our first-time travellers, called “Express”. These are designed to show you the best of
the country as an introduction – think of them like “the entrée to the main course”.

In Africa you feel indescribably grounded, with an outside world that is vastly different, Africa forces you to be “in the moment” because there are surprises around every
bend. India, on the other hand, the name itself spreads an aura which is so enormous that to say anything, will undermine its image. It’s a nation where religion is given
topmost priority and people of diverse backgrounds live in perfect harmony with each other. It’s these amazing areas of the world that has every traveller’s heart skip a
beat.

Since 2010, we’ve been going the extra mile for our clients. From the moment you call and speak to one of our consultants; to the airport meet & greet; the tour guide
showing you unique experiences that only the locals know and the amazing hotels we use in each, and every town. There is plenty more in here, we’d love to discuss, so
choose MW Tours for your next incredible tour!

     ent on the heading of each tour, so that you can identify the grade of the tour you are considering.

        Easy Paced: Generally suitable for anyone to join with shorter duration and a slower pace for your
        enjoyment.

              Moderate Paced: Tour may include longer periods on foot and climbing stairs as well as
              longer driving period.

                  Active Paced: Involves longer than expected walking, trekking and many overnight train
                  journeys which an active level of fitness is required for. It may also involve itineraries
                  with no more than 1 night in each location.

     We recommend all passengers with existing medical conditions (whether external or internal), assess
     your personal fitness level before attempting to book, with a consultation with your doctor.
