Essential Books to Pack for your travels to Africa:
Rather than try to stock every single book under the sun for Africa, we
have carefully selected the 'Essential Safari Books', and the best 'Country Guide Books'
for you to take with you to Africa. Packing good books that cover the country and areas you are visiting, and which provide more information on the birds, trees, mammals, reptiles
and tracks you will encounter on safari greatly enhances the enjoyment of your holiday.
We have also taken the unique decision of stocking books that have been 'Recommended By You.'
This enables you to see which books other like-minded travellers to Africa read before, during, and after their safari.
