Whether you want to take an African safari or
visit the Egyptian pyramids, you should consider
the following tips when planning your first trip to
Africa:
3. 1. Know the climate. While many photos and
videos depict the desert climates of Africa, if
you visit any of the continent’s mountainous
areas, including the region that includes Mt.
Kilimanjaro, prepare for temperatures that can
descend below freezing.
2. Receive necessary vaccinations. Depending
on your destination, you will need a few
different vaccinations, such as hepatitis A,
typhoid, and yellow fever. Allow enough time
for vaccines like the rabies shot, which consists
of three injections over the period of a month.
4. 3. Choose French. If you want to learn a
few useful, foreign language phrases
before departing to Africa, you might
want to choose French. You will find that
the majority of people in countries
throughout central and western Africa
utilize French in daily conversation and
business transactions.
