Guidebooks

This new, thoroughly updated eighth edition remains the only practical guidebook to Tanzania to reflect the overall shift of tourism away from backpackers and budget camping safaris to upper-end and mid-range safaris and beach holidays. Unlike other guidebooks, the main focus is background and practical information on Tanzania's peerless collection of national parks, game reserves and other safari destinations. With most other guides still focusing on the ever-diminishing backpacker market, the Bradt guide cuts out the parts that are only of interest to backpackers on trans-Africa trips to allow maximum space for detailed information aimed at safari-goers and other tourists.
