I know that the museums and monuments in Zimbabwe and Botswana charge different fees for locals and for foreigners. A citizen pays very little to visit on the basis that it is their heritage and that they have a right to experience it. Foreigners pay substantially more, preferably in US$, contributing to the upkeep of these institutions. As most visitors can afford a few $ , especially when it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit a place like Great Zimbabwe this system seems fair to me. I think this is a very good way of ensuring that local people get as much out of their institutions as possible or as they want.

Kenya as well. Some of us have discussed the possibility for South Africa.

Kathryn - do you want to mention alternative admission 'fees', or shall I.

(BTW - when's the big departure?)
