Africa's Top Wildlife Countries: Botswana, Kenya, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Also includin

The book does an excellent job of describing the places and countries to go for wildlife viewing in Africa. It also provides categories of available lodging with basic descriptions of activities available (ie night safaris, safari walks, etc.). Maps show where the lodges and camps are located in and near the various national parks, and many of the lodges have photos of the facility in the book. A safari company organized our trip, but the book enabled us to ask about other locations, things to do, and places to go. The book was invaluable for for our planning, and will be taken on the trip.

Bought this for background to prepare for my African safaris. This covered much of the area I was traveling and it gives a great starting point for planning and insight. Beautiful pictures. Although this book was used, it was "brand new" and appreciate the seller's description. My only issue with the book is that due to its size/weight, it is too big to take on safari, so you need a smaller safari guide for the floral/fauna and park guides.

I'll try and come back to post a more thorough review at a late point. Just wanted to get the 5 stars up because this book is excellent. Very detailed. Even the continent on the front is 3d embossed! Nice book, TONS of valuable info. I just bought about a dozen books for a safari Im planning on taking and this book may be the best of them.

Extremely informative in helping us to plan our trip to South Africa.It helped us come up with our itinerary. We're also using the Africa Adventure Company, owned by the writer of this book, to help us every step of the way especially for our Safari and Capetown visits!

If you wanna know the best places and times to see each animal in Africa, then this is for you!

Very helpful to me since I have not traveled much as to what to expect. Much info on each area of Aftica. Easy to read and the temperature charts were a good way to help decide when to go.

There may indeed be helpful information in this book, but the choppy, ill-organized layout rife with grammatical errors was frustrating to read. Worse, the author operates a travel agency specializing in African travel and uses this book to advertise his services every few pages. The blatant solicitation makes me wonder how much - if any - of his information is unbiased.

Each country was covered in detail, plus the charts about when to go/what to see/what is needed where were invaluable.

Con este libro puedes sacar ideas para organizar tu safari para pedirle a tu agencia que añada cosas que normalmente no ofrecen.

The 8th edition (bought used) does not include Madagascar which is disappointing from a company that does run a safari there. Best to purchase the latest edition if you plan to combine a visit to Madagascar with other countries. Otherwise this book has a lot of good information for people planning to see wildlife in Africa.
