Best Blogs and Web Sites About Africa

By , About.com GuideSeptember 16, 2012

Follow me on:

Ranger DiariesIt's impossible for me to run out of topics to write about. Africa is too dynamic, vast and exciting for that to happen. But after blogging several times a week for over seven years, I frequently turn to a reliable group of blogs and web sites for inspiration. Of course Twitter, Facebook, travel magazines, books and various safari newsletters also help to feed my insatiable appetite for Africa related tidbits.

At a recent APTA event, I was asked to give some tips and advice to tour operators who also write blogs and manage social media for their companies. I realized there weren't too many useful lists of great African blogs/web sites out there. So, I put my own list together. Some of you will no doubt be very familiar with the BBC's Africa coverage and TripAdvisor's impressive collection of African accommodation reviews. But I hope some of the url's will be new to you and you'll explore them further. Read -- Best Blogs and Web Sites About Africa...

Your website is one of the best resources on Africa and deserves kudos. I would have loved to see my blog (http://www.african-safari-information.com) on that list too. It is purely on Africa travel tips and advice.
