F.A.Q.

Recommendations from «Africa Brut» and answers to frequent questions about tour organization in Africa

Most tourists are concerned about two exotic diseases: yellow fever and malaria.

Yellow fever: For entry into most African countries such as South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia, Mozambique, Kenya, a yellow fever vaccination certificate is not required. For visiting Tanzania, yellow fever vaccination is recommended but not mandatory. Mandatory vaccination is required for visiting some countries in West and Central Africa, such as Congo, Cameroon, CAR, and others. This vaccination should be done well in advance of the trip.


Malaria: The risk of contracting malaria exists in areas with a warm, humid climate and numerous insects, but the probability of encountering a malaria mosquito is practically zero. Disease vectors are not ubiquitous: they inhabit areas near stagnant water and do not fly more than 8 km. Therefore, the risk of being bitten by a malaria mosquito is high only in places where they reside permanently: in tropical forests, lowlands, swamps, near drying ponds, etc. If you want to protect yourself 100%, follow these recommendations: use high-quality repellents and, if necessary, use special medications (Lariam, Doxycycline, Malarone). There is no vaccination against malaria.

Africa is open to tourists all year round. The continent has over 50 countries, with a wide variety of landscapes and climate zones. For example, the best time to visit Kenya is during the dry seasons, from December to January and from July to August.

Much depends on what you specifically want to see and visit. You can always find the optimal region to visit for a certain period.
