Een verhaal van de auteur die er 2 jaar heeft gewoond: over de mensen die hij ontmoette, over het verbazingwekkend mooie land dat hij ontdekte.

Asmara is the capital of Eritrea. It is a surreally Italian city at the center of an ex-Italian colony that has, for more than ten years, been at war with its neighbor Ethiopia, which claims sovereignty over Eritrea. Amidst the broken palaces of the late Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie, nomadic desert encampments, and war-devastated towns, Justin Hill found a people remarkably resistant to everything fate has thrown at them.

Als er geen Lonely Planet is, is dit het alternatief ... En vaak nog beter ook. De beste gids over Malawi met alle mogelijke informatie, zowel praktisch (eten, slapen, reizen) als achtergronden over cultuur, landschap en bevolking.

Bradt:
Angola is no destination for beginners. It has no Starbucks or McDonalds, and there's only one functioning escalator in the whole country. Only seven years have passed since it emerged from three decades of armed struggle; the land is littered with 10million unexploded mines (which, interestingly, the elephants have learnt to detect and avoid) and there are few tourist facilities. But for the adventurous, this country offers over 1,000km of unspoilt beaches, excellent fishing and surfing, tropical forests and magnificent bird life. The first-ever English guidebook to the country, Bradt's Angola is essential reading for business travellers and pioneering adventurers alike.

? The first-ever English-language tourist guidebook to Angola, and the first tourist guide in any language written since before independence from Portugal in 1975

?Angola's visitor numbers are soaring as the government uses its massive oil and diamond wealth to rebuild the country's shattered infrastructure

?Provides in-depth coverage of the once-elegant colonial capital, Luanda

Duitstalige reisgids over deze 2 weinig beschreven landen. Goede reisgids met heel veel infomatie voor zowel de georganiseerde als de zelfstandige reiziger.

Ein anspruchsvoller, sehr detaillierter Reiseführer für aktive Individualreisende und vielseitig interessierte Gruppenreisende.

Schwerpunkte:

Landeskunde: Geschichte, Bevölkerung, Kultur, Traditionen, Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft, Ökologie, Pflanzen und Tiere. Hier gehen wir dem ?Chieftainship? genauso auf den Grund wie dem Treiben der früheren Kolonialmächte. Ein breites Kapitel erklärt die Vielfalt der Pflanzen und Tierspuren, und beschreibt Interessantes über die Tiere Sambias und Malawis.

Reiseteil: Hier finden Sie zu allen Regionen beider Länder genaue und aktuelle Beschreibungen und Informationen. Dazu zählen komplette Preis- und Adressangaben mit E-mail-Adressen, präzise Wegbeschreibungen für Autofahrer und Hinweise zu den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. 68 exakte Landkarten sorgen für eine klare Orientierung in der Wildnis. Die Bildauswahl folgt dem strengen Ziel, die beiden Länder ehrlich und aussagekräftig vorzustellen. Unterhaltsame Kurzessays greifen interessante Themen gesondert heraus. Außerdem: jede Menge relevante GPS-Daten.

Infoteil: Dieser Bereich versteht sich als Ratgeber für alle erdenklichen Alltagssituationen, zur Planung und Vorbereitung von Touren, geht Praxisfragen nach und bietet zahlreiche Adress-Verzeichnisse. Hier gehen wir auf das Kochen am Lagerfeuer ein, bieten Tipps für Autofahrer, nennen Gesundheits- und Hygieneaspekte, und versuchen, die Scheu vor der Begegnung mit der afrikanischen Bevölkerung zu nehmen.

Fazit: Dieser Reiseführer gehört nun schon seit 10 Jahren und in der 11. aktualisierten Auflage zur Standardausrüstung für Reisende in Sambia und Malawi. Vor allem für selbst organisierte Touren ist der beliebte Reiseführer unentbehrlich.

John on the backpacker's trial > From the stillness of the Karoo savanna to the warmth of the Indian Ocean, and from the exclusive white neighbourhoods of Pretoria to the destitution of the black townships in Cape Town, John Malathronas chronicles a journey in one of the most beautiful countries on Earth. Whether dancing the night away in a club, mountain-biking on the backpacker's bus or watching animals on a safari, John Malathronas is full of sharp observations, be they social, historical, political or botanical. The author draws fascinating portraits of the many Afrikaner, Xhosa, Zulu, Indian and Swazi characters he encounters, all of whom make up the tapestry of the new South Africa. (Engelstalig)

Where do we sleep tonight?  Probably the most asked question after how far is it.  Tracks4Africa GPS Maps already takes care of how far it is.  Our GPS maps are also packed with information on places to camp and stay, but just like we know people still like to use a paper map, we also know they like to take a handy book with them when they travel.

Our new Namibia and Botswana Lodging and Camping Directory is jam packed with places to camp and stay and include well researched information on each listing.

The book is printed in full colour on high quality paper and comprises 1082 listings spread over more than 250 pages.

The camp sites and lodging are all plotted on the Tracks4Africa GPS map. If you have our maps on your GPS, we’ll navigate you to your destination and we will even tell you how long it still is to get there. 
 
A short description is given of each travel region to help you plan your trip. We believe that this easy to use and well organised directory will enable you to find whatever type of accommodation you are looking for, be it in the most touristy or the most remote areas of Namibia or Botswana.

For Botswana there are total of 293 listings which is made up of 116 camp sites and 177 lodgings.  Namibia has a total of 780 listings with 212 camp sites and 577 lodgings.

Typical information provided for each listing includes a short description, type of accommodation, contact details, rates, facilities and activities.  For out of town listings we also give the distance and estimated travel time from the town centre.

Maybe you are a camper who like to spoil yourself every now and then with a bit of luxury when you need to replenish stock, get some washing done or have your vehicle serviced. Or maybe you don’t like camping but prefer self-catering accommodation, backpacking or staying over in guest houses. You might also be in a position to afford luxury accommodation. Whatever your preference, you will find any type of accommodation you want in Tracks4Africa’s Namibia and Botswana Lodging and Camping Directory.
