The Third Edition of The Best African Safari Is Here

When I first traveled to Africa in 2000, I had no idea that one safari would change the direction of my life. The giraffes had me at “Jambo,” and I have been returning ever since.

Over the years, I have answered thousands of questions from travelers planning their first safari:

Where should I go? When is the best time to travel? Is it safe? What should I pack? What are the camps really like? And, of course, what happens when you have to use the bathroom in the bush?

Those questions led me to write The Best African Safari: Tips From an Obsessive Planner. The first edition was published in 2015, and a lot has changed since then—not only in Africa, but in the way we research, plan and travel.

I am pleased to announce that the Third Edition is now available.

The book has been revised and updated using the experience I have gained from more than 26 years of traveling throughout Africa. Every year I travel there inspecting camps, working with guides and planning custom safaris for our clients. My goal remains the same: to answer the practical questions, cut through the information overload and most importantly help you plan that bucket list safari that is perfect for you.

The book is available for purchase on Amazon, but because you are visiting us here at Infinite Safari Adventures, you can read it online or download the complete PDF free of charge:

I hope it helps prevent “internet information overload” and makes the planning process easier. And when you are ready to  turn your “someday” into Now! We will be ready for you!

Safari Njema!

    At Infinite Safari Adventures giving back is not optional. It is part of our responsibility. It is who we are. One of things that means is supporting the people who live alongside wildlife. And to better do that we started The Infinite Safari Foundation. We donate a portion of every safari booked to the foundation in our clients’ name. One of the initiatives we support is the Amani Foundation. It was created to keep families together, with a focus on…

  • How to Visit Victoria Falls

    A natural wonder of Africa, Victoria Falls is a must-see for many of my guests on safari. It is an incredible, breathtaking sight and one that should not be missed. Towering twice as tall as Niagara Falls, Victoria Falls is the dividing line between the countries of Zimbabwe and Zambia. Fed by the Zambezi River, Victoria Falls was given its modern name by explorer/missionary Dr. David Livingstone in honor of Queen Victoria in 1855.  Its original name is “Mosi-oa-Tunya” which…

  • Love in the Wild: A Proposal Blessed by a Silverback

    As we say at Infinite Safari Adventures, if it can be done, we will make it happen. Our clients have enjoyed renewing wedding vows, taking cooking lessons, and celebrating bar mitzvahs in Africa. But sometimes our clients surprise even us. A few weeks ago, our lovely clients Laurie and Thom were in Rwanda to see the gorillas. Laurie had traveled with us several years ago with her daughter, who coined the term “the Elfie” (see below). Well, Thom surprised Laurie,…

  • 20 Years Ago Today

    While it may have been 20 years ago today that Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play, another wonderful thing also happened 20 years ago today. On August 27th just before my 50th birthday I summited Mt. Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain on the continent of Africa. It was a moving, spiritual experience to stand on the roof of Africa. The entire journey was amazing, from my incredible guide Geoffrey Moshi pushing me and motivating me to the summit, to the sunrise over…

  • RIP Craig

    It is not every day that a country and the world mourns the death of an elephant, but Craig was no ordinary elephant. Craig was one of the last “Tusker” elephants with giant tusks measuring over six feet in length. Craig resided in the Amboseli area of Kenya where, as many of you know, Infinite Safari and its Foundation are very involved. While it is sad that Craig has passed, we can take solace in the fact that despite those…

  • Ready For Their Close-Up

    People always ask me how close you get to the animals and whether or not you will need binoculars or a zoom lens. While you do sometimes, other times you can also almost (but don’t) reach out and touch them. Such was the case the other day during a game drive with clients in Nairobi National Park (a wonderful wildlife park that sits right up against Nairobi). We came across a mother rhino and her baby casually grazing on the…
