Dear Dr. Schmitt, 
As you requested, I am handing you herewith six 
itineraries, at bottom of each you will find the price to be paid; 
depending on either there are two, three or four people travelling 
together. 
As I told you, I always reckon on three people travelling 
in one car, but there are of course always exceptions and therefore 
you will find the price for four people travelling into one car, but 
once again I do not advise travelling more than three. 
I have, following our conversation, once again gone 
through my files with regards to the quotations as submitted to the 
A. A. A. for your own journey. My first quotation, dated November 50th was 
$ 30.- per day and per person, my next quotation, dated February 7th, 
gave the following detail: 
12 45 or 30 day trip, 26 dollars per day and per person. 
This includes all expenses en route from the time the party reaches 
Matadi until they embark from Bukavu for Juba. 
It does not include any train, boat or air fares. 
22 Cofit of european accompanying the group 20 dollars per day. 
This european will join the group as from the time the group arrives 
in Stanleyville. 
This was when your party should have left Bukavu by 
air. Finally, on March 2nd, I confirmed the quotation given on February 
7th when it was decided that your party would go on to Entebbe, the only 
diffemce beeing the number of days during which your party would be 
travelling with my organization.
