Budget Travel Guide to Africa

Imagine glorious sunsets across vast plains and wildebeest frolicking in the light, just before being consumed by a hungry lioness. Africa is all this and so much more. It's tricky to summarise, it's a large continent and the variety of people and places is huge. Try and do a bit of research into the local customs before you go, take appropriate dress and learn a few words and you should get by ok.
