By Heinrich van den Berg

Self-Drive is the popular alternative to the guided tour safari - and the freedom it brings to do what you want when you want and stay where you like means it will continue to grow. Local knowledge is the cornerstone of any visit to a park, and this is what this book offers. Jaco Powell has been escorting guests to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park for the last 20 years. He knows every bend and cranny along the tracks, where to look and what animals to expect and when. Disclosing the special wonders of this world whilst escorting guests is not only his livelihood, but his passion.
