Very Helpful
Successfully got us through Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia in January 2025. A few minor things are out of date, but that is true as soon as something is printed.

Purchased this guide for an upcoming trip to Southern Africa. As I was looking through it, I saw a comment "In two years, 2019, the next election"....so looking at the publishing date it is 2017. 7 years ago! I expected the book to be reasonably current, a year or two at best. A lot changes in 7 years can happen. Not pleased with Amazon on this one. I think it is going back.
