| Whether you are traveling
overseas for business, pleasure or study, the best way to
ensure a carefree and relaxing trip is to prevent problems
before they happen. The more you learn about passports,
visas, customs, immunizations, and other travel basics,
the less likely you are to have difficulties during your
travel. There is much that you can do to prepare for your
trip abroad, depending on where you are going, how long
you are staying, and your reasons for traveling. Each African
country provides a somewhat different safari experience.
In order to assist you with the planning of your African
safari, we have provided an extensive list of traveling
tips to help your journey go as smooth as possible. These
tips are specific to each country, so just pick a link at
the right of this page to find out more. Alternatively,

Here
are some quick tips to make your travel easier and safer:
Sign passport, and fill in the emergency information:
Make sure you have a signed, valid passport, and a visa,
if required, and fill in the emergency information page
of your passport.
Leave copies of itinerary and
passport data page:
Leave copies of your itinerary, passport data page and
visas with family or friends, so you can be contacted
in case of an emergency.
Check your overseas medical
insurance coverage:
Ask your medical insurance company if your policy applies
overseas, and if it covers emergency expenses such as
medical evacuation. If it does not, consider supplemental
insurance.
Familiarize yourself with local
conditions and laws:
While in a foreign country, you are subject to its laws.
For American Travellers, the State Department website
at ttp://www.travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_1765.html
has useful safety and other information about the countries
you will visit.
Take precautions to avoid being
a target of crime:
To avoid being a target of crime, do not wear conspicuous
clothing or jewelry and do not carry excessive amounts
of money. Also, do not leave unattended luggage in public
areas and do not accept packages from strangers.
Register with your foreign mission
in the country you travel:
Register your travel plans with your country's foreign
embassy. Americans should register with State Department
through a free online service at https://travelregistration.state.gov.
This will help them contact you if there is a family emergency
in the U.S., or if there is a crisis where you are traveling.
In accordance with the Privacy Act, information on your
welfare and whereabouts will not be released to others
without your express authorization. This
is your trip. Make it an enjoyable one. Learn
