Questions travellers ask

How does booking work?

Choose a tour and a date, say how many of you are going and pay the deposit by M-Pesa. Your place is confirmed straight away, and you pay the rest to your guide on the day. Some tours are paid in full up front; the tour page always shows which.

Can I talk to the guide before I book?

Yes. Every tour has a Message button. Ask about pick-up, what to bring or a private date, and the guide can send you a private price for your group right in the chat. Their phone number is shared once your booking is paid.

Is there a booking fee?

No. You pay the price the guide set, and Cabana takes no commission on the tour price.

How are guides and operators checked?

Every guide and operator is reviewed by the Cabana team before their tours go live, and every tour listing is checked before it appears on the site.

Are the free walking tours really free?

Free walks run on a pay-what-you-like basis: there is no fixed price, and you tip your guide at the end. Some walks include a small entry fee, which the tour page lists.
