Details on the figures

Richtwerte in CHF pro Person, recherchiert im Juli 2026 (Numbeo, BudgetYourTrip, lokale Anbieter; Kurs 1 CHF = 1.22 USD = 1.08 EUR). Unterkunft = Doppelzimmer geteilt durch zwei. Ohne internationale Flüge, Visum und Versicherung. Der Mietwagen ist wie die Unterkunft pro Person gerechnet (Fahrzeug inkl. Vollkasko und Sprit geteilt durch zwei). Die Unterkunft-Zeile deckt Hotels und Guesthouses ab, nicht die privaten Safari-Lodges (Sabi Sand und Co.: 400–800 CHF pro Person und Nacht all-inclusive). Der Kruger-Eintritt (rund 29 CHF pro Tag) steckt in den Aktivitäten.
