8. Frequently Asked Questions:
- How do you pay commissions?
- We quote all services to qualified trade partners in NET rates, so you can add on your desired
commission on your side. Payments can be made to the Nairobi office via wire transfer.
- Can you help organize Fam trips?
- Absolutely. To make the most of the Fam experience, we typically work one-on-one with our
trade partners to create custom Fam trips, vs. group trips. Please contact the Nairobi office, or one of
our representatives in the US or Europe, to discuss your Fam objectives and complete a Fam Request
Form. From there we will discuss options and work to get you reduced rates through our partners for
your Fam experience.
- Can travelers book direct with Hemingways Expeditions?
- No. If you are a traveler, please contact us and we’ll put you in touch with a travel agent or tour
operator who will work together with our team in Nairobi to create an outstanding safari experience for
you in East Africa.
- What type of vehicles do you use?
- We own 4 Toyota Land Cruisers with extended bodies, the most comfortable and safe safari
vehicles available today. These vehicles are used in both Kenya and Tanzania. We also own a fleet of
smaller safari vans for use on longer driving itineraries in Kenya. The majority of our travelers in Kenya
experience flying safaris, so when not flying from park to park guests utilize safari vehicles and guides
associated with the individual camps.
