Anyone ever heared about a safari company from Nairobi by the name
"breakaway expeditions" ?

I am planning my travel in namibia with my wife for next September.
We will spend 21 days in a self-drive tour.
We would like to add a stop at the Epupa Falls in Kaokoland.

Can I check in all the way from Mombasa to Amsterdam on tickets bought at
two different locations and times? If not, how long time does it take to get
out of the plane in Nairobi and check in for the Amsterdam leg?

A huge thank you to those of you who gave me excellent advice for my
Kenya trip in March. Here is an account of my two weeks in Kenya that
might help others prepare for their safari adventure.

hi I,m shortly heading to Victoria Falls can any one tell me how long I need
to spend there I was thinking about 3 days max. Also I need advice on
accommodation I,d be very grateful if anyone who,s been there could give me
as much info as possible.

try to open one of the last 5 or 6.

Hi all.  I'm taking my almost 14  year old son to Tanzania at the end
of August for a month, and would be grateful for suggestions.  As it
stands, we're going to start out in the Usambara mountains for some
cultural exposure (suggested by one of the safari people) but...I'm not

Does anyone know of a good travel agency or web site for fares to Kenya From UK.

Thanks

I had a question about travelling by coach from Pretoria to Maputo.
Is it possible to arrange a visum at the border, because it would
make things more simple also. I am coming from Europe, the
Netherlands.

I am a student studying in The United Kingdom, who is currently doing a
dissertation on the effects of the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks on British
Tourism. I would be gratefull if any user reading this posting, who
reside's outside of the UK, could spare a minute to visit the link

I will rach Yaounde and I have to get the Visa.
The Consolate ask me the hotel reserve but I will sleep in Yaounde 2
nights only because I will go as soon as possible from Yaounde.
In fact I'd like to go to north and east Cameroon.

I know a 21-year-old college student who's looking to minimize her
airfare to South Africa.  Her three possible itineraries are below.
She is flexible on the dates by about three days either way, and she
might leave from Los Angeles or another US city to save money.

If money wasn't a limitation, what parts or area/s of Africa would you
most like to spend your retirement in and why ?

Is anyone here familiar with what are the neccessary things to be immunized
against before going on a trip to Tanzania? The travel clinics here in
Canada charge ridiculous amounts and I think i most prob need immunization
against HepA - not sure about yellow fever, etc. Any help ...
