Kenya Highlights, first in a new series of colourful Highlights Guides published by Bradt, hones in on the best of this magnificent country and condenses it into a portable but informative guidebook aimed at first time visitors planning or joining an organised safari. Renowned Africa expert, Philip Briggs - author of ten Bradt guides, and arguably the most highly-respected guidebook writer on the region - describes and provides full background information to the country's highlights, with emphasis on the superlative game reserves and sparkling Indian Ocean coastline that have made Kenya one of Africa's premier holiday destinations. There's a chapter offering advice on safari planning, plus detailed sections on wildlife, history and people, and select lodge accommodation (chosen in conjunction with several leading tour operators to Kenya). Featuring beautiful full-colour photos throughout, this book serves equally as a holiday planner, a travel companion and a memento of your trip.'[Philip Briggs] is clearly not only an expert on travel in Africa but also someone who cares deeply about the countries he is visiting.' Traveller Magazine 'If you are planning a Kenyan safari then Phillip Briggs is your man. Not only does he know the country inside out, but his writing reveals a passion for it, an understanding of its people and a commitment to its stunning wildlife and wild places.' Brian Jackman, Co-author of The Big Cat Diary and trustee of the George Adamson Wildlife Preservation Trust 'Everything you need to know for the safari of a lifetime in one handy, authoritative guide. You can trust a local like Philip Briggs - this is Bradt at its best.' Mark Carwardine, BBC Conservationist '...this new-look Bradt guide will help you plan the perfect safari in Kenya.' Travel Africa 'Good stuff: Enough detail to prove useful on a guided trip, without overloading.' Wanderlust '... the pick for people on organised safaris.' Travel Africa
