Savanna Safari Guide

For most people, a holiday in Africa is not complete without an African Safari. Arranging a successful safari vacation requires careful planning. The Savanna Safari Guide provides vital information and tips on where to find different safari options in East and Southern Africa - from low cost budget options to luxury exclusive safaris, and from wilderness safaris to peri-urban cultural safaris.

Most safari guide books focus solely on animals. The Savanna Safari Guide is different in that in addition to wildlife safari information, it also covers the current political and security situation, and different cultures in each of the destinations countries. (South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Tanzania and Kenya.) The political and security commentary on destination countries provides the current risk profiles of different safari destinations, and tips on how to stay safe on your safari vacation.

As a special for South Africa, the book provides an overview of the 9 cities (Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth, Nelspruit, Polokwane, Rustenburg and Pretoria) that will host matches for the FIFA 2010 World Cup. The Savanna Safari Guide is a vital resource for anyone planning to visit South Africa and neighboring countries in 2010, and in particular for soccer fans visiting South Africa for the World Cup. If you want to get to know the people, the hosting cities and sight seeing options available for you to visit in between matches, this is the book for you.
