How do I check if I need a visa for an African country?

Visa rules depend on your nationality, purpose of travel, and entry point. Use the country selector on this page to open the visa guidance route for your destination.

Do you provide travel costs like hotels, food and transport?

Yes. Each country card shows currency, climate summary, and a planning cost table for hotels, food, car rental (including 4x4), and airport pickup estimates.

What car type is best for bad roads in Africa?

For rough roads, national parks, rainy season tracks and remote corridors, a high-clearance 4x4 SUV or 4x4 pickup is recommended.

Can you help with overland travel and border crossings?

Yes. We provide overland planning guidance, border-crossing notes, and route structuring so travelers can prepare documents and logistics properly.
