Is southern Africa safe?
This is probably the most common question that travellers to the southern African region consider. Unfortunately in much of the western world, Africa only appears to make the news when there is a war, famine or election. This distorts the true image of what is happening on the ground. There are numerous southern African and African news sources on the internet which you can source to gain a true reflection, and also use travel forums where recent, potential and addicted travellers congregate. Please call us for some independent advice on where to look for such information. When travelling, use common sense and exercise a bit more caution than normal. No matter how natural you appear, tourists and travellers are very easily spotted!! Seek advice from locals they know what they are talking about!!
