Solid safari advice April 5, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book offers practical advice on structuring your wildlife safari in Botswana, complete with information on where/when to find which species, how to select a safari company, how to do it on your own, choosing a lodge or camp, and tailoring your itinerary to meet your unique needs. The descriptions of the various parks and reserves were not as compellingly enticing as the Bradt guide to Tanzania, so I will probably choose to visit Tanzania instead of Botswana. But if I am lucky enough to be able to take a second safari, I will definitely use this book to decide where in Botswana to go, where to stay, and what time of year to visit.

Having just returned from Botswana, I highly recommend this book. It is accurate with just the right amount of detail. Although the author owns his own travel company, his comments and reviews were accurate, thorough and objective as to safari experiences as well as other tour operators.

This travel book of Botswana does not cover all of the wildlife viewing areas of the country. We will be traveling to the Tuli reserve on the Eastern edge and wanted to see some information on the private parks in that area as well as the lodges. The book didn't cover any of that, which was pretty disappointing.
