Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m writing to enquire/tell you about your holidays to Botswana in summer 2015. I am
particularly interested in the Safari.
First of all, I was wondering/explaining if any kind of experience is necessary for this kind of
trip. I have never been to Africa before, and would like to know what I need to bring with me.
Secondly, the brochure you sold/sent me says that there are two trips, one in July and one in
August. I’d like to know if there are any differences between the two, in terms of the places you
visit the accommodation and so on.
My last question is about transport. I understand/hope that some parts of the journey will be in
small planes and some in jeeps. Can you tell me more about this, as I am rather a nervous
traveller?
Thank you in advance for sending me further details of the holidays. I look forward to writing
to/hearing from you.
Yours faithfully
Jane Gibbs.
