I'm looking to backpack Africa next summer. How long would be suggested to backpack the East and South? Is it safe for a female 2 do on their own? Does anyone have any ideas on companies that organise over landing trips on a budget? Is it best to book with an African company or an English company???
Any suggestions greatly received. Reply to this

it is safe to travel by yourself. They treat foreigners with a lot of respect. If you are to choose a company make sure they have local representatives in the continent.

Generally quite safe travelling in Africa, however you would probably be more comfortable travelling in a group. Reply to this

With effect from July 22nd 2016, tourists seeking to come to Uganda will pay half of the money they have been paying for single entry tourist visas. Government has halved the fees from $100 to $50 in an effort to encourage more tourists to come to the country that has been consistently ranked among top tour destinations in the world for the past few years.
