Need help with excursion

I'm reading all kinds of postings about excursions in BB and I just want to make sure that I'm in the ballpark price wise.
What price range should I expect for a full day of 4x4, lunch, ray/shark feeding?
Thank you?

Andie, are you talking about different companies, or just one offering a full day package with 3 different activities (quite exhausting)?

I'd say around 200 us$ p/p ? average 4x4 price is 7500, ray feeding around the same and lunch? well depends really on what they offer.

Merci Poehere. I guess I was in the ballpark. Nice to know. You're such a fountain of information...;0)

Hi Andie, Patrick does a private tour of all those options you want but charges $1000 US - if you can get another couple to share it with you it would make the price a bit more reasonable. Here is his website link - he is a really friendly, knowledgable guy!!

Hey guy's. If you look at the guides on Patrick's website that Gary posted above, the middle picture of Alexis TEMANUA was taken by me back in 2006 when we were on Bora. We did a private tour through Patrick and Alex was our guide. I sent him some pictures of our day and they used one of Alex on their site, albeit after cropping me out. Here's the link:

Here is the original.

I'm considering it...Steep price though. Is there a similar tour (all day) but with a group?

Nice one Joe - so you definitely recommend the tour?
Andie, just going from Jan Prince's latest book it looks like Patrick is the only one that does 4x4, lunch, shark/ray, lagoon tour etc but Etienne and Keishi just have the lagoon part (no 4x4) - page 435 and 436. I would just email Patrick, tell him what days you are going to be there, tell him you would like to try and share with another couple and see what he says. If you were travelling in December we would share with you!!!!
