Southern Africa Safari 2017 - Planning Phase - D Day plus 141 Days

We are in the planning phase of our Southern Africa Safari later this year, which will take in Wild Coast of South Africa, Southern Drakensberg, Botswana, Namibia and West Coast of South Africa from 1st August to 27th August a trip of +/- 7000kms.

We left planning later than we normally do and have had to re-route and re-plan where and when we stop over. Be advised if you plan to stay in lodges and hotels especially in the popular tourist spots like Chobe in Botswana for example, make sure you make reservations a minimum of one year ahead of time, when we did our Africa safari in 2013 we were doing the planning up to 2 years in advance, very necessary for places like the Masai Mara in Kenya and the Serengeti in Tanzania.

We are just waiting for 3 places to confirm our bookings and then we will be able to slow down the surfing on the internet, that will be a relief, although it certainly gets one in the mood, the problem is, it is still another 141 days before we depart, however, we know how fast time travels and there will still be a lot to do.

Stay with us and we will share the trials and tribulations in preparing for travel into Africa.
