Limited Participation: Een essentieel onderdeel van de safari is meehelpen. Van het opzetten van uw tent tot het inpakken van de vrachtwagen in de ochtend: het maakt allemaal deel uit van uw avontuur. Uw reisleiders zorgen voor de volledige maaltijdbereiding, maar ze vragen reizigers wel om (toerbeurt) te helpen met de afwas. Er zijn enkele lange reisdagen, wat betekent dat de ochtend vroeg begint, dus moet iedereen meedoen om de dag efficiënt te laten verlopen.
