Diego Delso Around the size of France and with a population of just under 2½ million, the largely flat-savannah Land of the Tswana is one of Africa’s premier wildlife destinations (and parenthetically, diamond producers): big game and only lightly touristed, with a “fewer people, more animals” tourism philosophy. I have fond memories of visiting its reknowned Okavango Delta on safari many years ago, but there are other aspects to the country very much noting as well: read post

Kariega Game Reserve: a South African recovery story

It took us three days to drive from Cape Town along South Africa’s "Garden Route" to Kariega Game Reserve in the Eastern Cape, but it was well worth the drive. Once it was 27 farms, which have all been returned to the wild, and the reserve now covers 115 square kilometers (44½ sq. miles), owned and operated by two of those original farming families. A fictional British TV series, Wild at Heart, which ran from 2006 to 2012, told about much the same thing. The animals at Kariega were…

Safaris in Zambia are eco-amazing

Ron CogswellWhen it comes to safaris and ecotourism, Zambia often takes a back seat to the likes of Botswana, Kenya, and Tanzania. But this large country in south-central Africa is positively packed with eco treasures, and its marquis attraction is one of the planet´s most spectacular waterfalls, Victoria Falls, which it shares with Zimbabwe. In addition, there are some 20 teeming nature reserves which offer as rewarding an eco-experience as any of Zambia´s neighbors – arguably even more so,…

Just got through reading What Ever You do Don't Run...here is my review

I bought this book because I plan to get to the Okavango Delta in Botswana with its immense diversity in wildlife. After reading Australian Peter Allison’s African safari-guide tales, I’m aware of dangers I’d not considered, but remain undaunted. Being hopelessly lost in a maze of shape shifting canals and stepping on the back of an alligator while pulling your flimsy boat through shallow waters can be avoided, but it does make an exciting tale. However, being dive-bombed by malaria-carrying mosquitoes can not! The stories are all entertaining and filled with quirky Ozzie humor capped off with a sly bit of sentimentality to let us know he cares. Allison makes it plain that he likes the wildlife a lot more than he likes the tourists he has to cater to, but he does it with self-deprecating good humor. I truly enjoyed this book and am even more eager to get to the delta than before—grumpy water buffaloes that would as soon gore me as look at me, or not! This is one tourist Mr. Allison has not scared away.

Sometimes it is better NOT to use a safari company, but rather a company that can combine camps and experiences. Epic Private Journeys is amazing and Swain does a great job, too. They are not committed to one "brand" of camp or lodge and truly want the best experience for you and your budget. It is best to call a travel agent who specializes in Africa so you don't make an expensive mistake.
