Travel Information for top-rated African safari countries

Of course there is the Internet with its almost endless source of information on whatever one might need to know and yes, there is also lots of information on African safari countries. Wikipedia will know about Kenya and Tanzania and there will be links to additional websites to get more specific information, but it is just so nice and handy to have it all in one location. Especially specific travel information on visa requirements, vaccinations, climate and more, are what one would like to know before departing on African safari. One example for having it all in one place to view online, to download as PDF and to download as free iBook for iPad is right here.

Also travel guides like Lonely Planet or the Rough Guide are a good source for practical travel information. For visas, always check government websites. They have the up to date information, at least they should.

Happy safari travel preparation!

Off the beaten track on African safari in South Africa

off-the-beaten-track-on-african-safari-in-south-africa

Many travellers have only 8 to 10 days for their African safari holiday. This is just enough to see Kruger and Cape Town. If you got a bit more time and if you enjoy self-drive, explore the beautiful Karoo. This can be easily combined with a visit to the Garden Route or en-route from Johannesburg to Cape Town.

The Karoo is a semi-desert with stunning landscapes, mountains, open plains and surprisingly lots of things to do and see. Enjoy
Brian Jackman’s post on the “secret Serengeti” in the Karoo and be inspired to visit this magical place on your next South Africa holiday.

Leisure African safari reads

Is there something like a leisure safari read? Maybe “The White Massai” could fall into that category, still a true story, but not really on the subject of safaris. Perhaps that is anyway the moment when an African safari holiday becomes just like other holidays with time to rest and relax at the pool with a good book. And then any novel, detective or historical book you would take with you also on other holidays, will be what you will love to read. Whatever you experience as leisure reading will be in your bag or on your Pad. … Maybe another good read is “A Lion in the Bedroom” by Pat Cavendish O’Neill, true story and true romance.

Happy safari reading!
