Important Tour Information:
All
tours accompanied by a PADI IDC Staff Instructor, who is also a Registered
Tour Guide with extensive experience and knowledge of the region.
You can therefore upgrade your diving PADI qualifications by doing a PADI
course whilst on tour. Ask for details.
All
tours are on a Bed & Breakfast basis, with some other meals included.
Where we have excluded meals, you are able to obtain meals according to
your own budget.
We recommend +/- R30 - R50.00 for lunches, and +/- R40.00 - R70.00 for
dinners
All
tours include the hire of cylinder and weightbelt. If you need full
equipment hire, add an extra R80.00 per diving day on to the cost of the
tour.
We are flexible
with dates for the tours, but will be shortly introducing scheduled
itineraries. In the meantime, contact us with your preferred dates
and we will let you know if the tour you want is available.
Itineraries can
be adjusted to suit your requirements. Tours can be combined with
other non-diving tours, or tailormade to your requirements and interests.
Please browse the rest of our site for ideas.
We recommend that
malaria prophylaxis are taken on tours into Mozambique and the extreme
north of KwaZulu-Natal (Maputoland). N.B. Larium, whilst being an
effective deter rent, is not compatible with diving.
Visas for
Mozambique can be obtained from the Mozambique Consulate in Durban.
The address is 27th Floor, 320 West St, Durban. The phone number is
031 3040200. 24 Hour visas cost R75.00, and same day visas cost
R85.00. You need a passport valid for at least 6 months and 3 id
photographs.
Please remember,
you have to wait a minimum of 12 hours (we recommend 24 hours) after
diving before you can fly, so factor this delay in when making your
holiday arrangements.
