There are not many inconveniences in the more sophisticated countries such as Kenya, Tanzania, and Southern Africa. Food is wonderful and varied, most dietary needs can be met. Lodges are good if not world-class. Your comfort level might be challenged on rough roads, multiple flights, changes in locations, and number of guests in a vehicle. Be sure to understand the full travel details about your trip before you book. However, there are countries that are more difficult then others. Accommodations can be very basic, infrastructure unsophisticated, food simple. While on safari you will be off road and can be out for many hours, no matter how deluxe a trip you book.
The conveniences and the inconveniences will depend on which safari you select. We encourage you to call the Born Free office and discuss your comfort level with one of our safari consultants. We can then direct you to the right safari. Most travelers come back from Africa raving about the level of services and how the guides and staff are so wonderful.
The food in Africa is in one world ‘fabulous’. The choices are wide and we can cater to any dietary need from vegan to diabetic. Speak with our consultants.
