    TBH we not not committed to these hotels, so if there is something cheaper we would be more than willing to consider it. The key, for us, is the tour of Sri Lanka and luxury in the Maldives (we have been told that the Seychelles is too far away).

    Thanks

  • Hello there,

    I have just been on the DLP website and they are having a flash sale at the moment. Would anyone be able to beat the following quote:

    Package Price: £244.00

    The price includes: Room + tickets + breakfast + local tax, includes special discount (if applicable), Credit card surcharge may apply.

    arriving on:
    Thursday 26 January 2012
    2 night(s) / 3 days

    package
    This price includes up to 50% off plus kids under 12 stay & play free
    package

    Sequoia Lodge
    Room in the Main Building with 2 double beds


    Sequoia Lodge was coming up as very reasonable compared to Davy Crockett/Santa Fe etc - but wouldn't really mind where we stayed.

    As yet, I haven't booked any transport, as still deciding whether to self-drive or use Eurostar - so would welcome any info/prices on those options too!

    Many thanks
