Ticket to Ride has worked hard to build good relationships with South African operators to ensure that the cost of the trip is as low as possible, but at the same time ensuring a high standard of service.
Payment Schedule
Place Confirmation - A £400 non-refundable deposit is to be sent in with the BOOKING FORM.

Once we receive a booking form and deposit, Riders will be sent a TTRide Welcome Pack which includes a deposit receipt and further payment plan broken down into 2-3 separate amounts. We feel that having 2-3 payment installments takes the pressure of our riders to fork out the whole sum in one go.

For more information on 'TTRide Payment Plans' please feel free to request a payment plan from the TTRide HQ info@ttride.co.uk
