Where should you go on safari? East Africa or South Africa?

Are you planning to go on safari but not sure where to go? If you don't have much experience traveling on the continent, you're likely faced with the difficult decision of choosing between eastern African and and southern Africa. Which area is better? What are the differences?

Choosing where to explore on the continent can be an overwhelming decision, which is why in today's video I'll be sharing some insights to help you get a better idea of where YOU should travel. Having travelled extensively in both regions, I've gained a strong understanding of the differences between the two regions. Let's me share my experiences and break it down!

Please note that this video is meant to give you a very generalized understanding of the two regions. By eastern Africa, I'm mainly referring to Kenya and Tanzania. By southern Africa, I'm mainly referring to the country of South Africa. These are the three most popular safari destinations and the countries I've spent the majority of my time. Many, but certainly not all, of the differences I mention between eastern and southern Africa apply to neighboring countries as well (Uganda, Rwanda, Botswana, Zimbabwe, etc.)
