Reviews
What a wonderful book to place on your table for everyone to see Africa, whether you have just returned from a safari, or are planning one, or will never go to Africa: the photos are BEAUTIFUL! The best places to stay for a romantic safari in each of six countries (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya) are captured in photo essays of each property and a half page review of the features including: the lodge and rooms, what to see and do, food and service, when to go, romance factor, and rates (which range from $400 - $1,000 per person, per night). There are full and double page photos of animals and landscapes between each lodge featured in the book. At the back of the book is contact information for each lodge and for transportation. The book is exquisite!
