90% of this book consists of blank fill-in pages (a $2 lined composition book will serve you better), while the remaining 10% is information that can easily be culled from the internet, or from a much more complete and more informative guide book such as the "The Rough Guide" or "Insight Guides." Wish I had saved my money.
It was a very helpful tool for planning and for gleaning information on what we were seeing. I took my family on safari in South Africa and we all had a copy of this wonderful guide.
Love it and have used it two years now, keeping a journal of what I have seen. If you are going on a safari to Africa, this is a must have.
By the second day we were bringing our books on each game drive, identifying and checking off all the animals, birds, reptiles etc. without it. Fortunately they liked it enough to bring it along.
It was the color illustrations of all the animals, reptiles, birds etc and a checklist of each one that was so valuable. The packing list, resources, maps, star gazing, glossary, photography tips were excellent and up to date. We would not have remembered the names, coloring etc.
When I received this book and checked it out, I was so impressed, I purchased one for each of the other two couples we were going on Safari with. The journal part was a bonus. A must have book to get you into the Safari experience.
We went on 4 different safaris in 2 different countries. that we came across.
Its a wonderful way to remember what you saw and what you need to take. I have been to Kenya three times and would not leave home without this book.
