Precautions for travelers
On a small-group tour of Southern Africa in May ’13 that we booked with Africa 2000 Tours (Knysna, South Africa), a wonderful company and a frequent advertiser in ITN, I learned a few lessons about precautions to take while traveling.

South Africa & Namibia—Serendipity steps in and a perfect trip begins
by Judith Anshin, First of two parts
For more than 10 years I had wanted to take a long trip to Southern Africa, visiting South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zambia. I decided 2011 would be the year I would do it, no matter what.
Visa glitch; Africa 2000 saves the day
By far, the company most recommended by those who responded to our “Person to Person” request for a good, reliable guide in Cape Town, South Africa, was Africa 2000 Tours (Knysna, South Africa; phone +27 44 3841262), owned and operated by Gill and Graham Maskell. What a find!
Three days in Johannesburg
Prior to a 3-week tour of Botswana, Zambia and South Africa, my husband, Maurice, and I flew in three days early to Johannesburg and met our guides, Gill and Graham Maskell of Africa 2000 Tours (P.O. Box 1204, Hilton, 3245, South Africa; phone +27 33 3433911, fax 33 3431786). We had traveled with them in South Africa the previous year.
To take advantage of our limited time in the city, Nov. 11-13, 2007, we had asked the Maskells to plan these three days to cover our interests in culture, history, archaeology and food.
Africa 2000 credits
Re my husband, Maurice’s, picture of Tembe National Elephant Park in South Africa (Aug. ’08, pg. 90), ITN neglected to include my comment that our tour there was planned and arranged by Gill and Graham Maskell of Africa 2000 (P.O. Box 1204, Hilton 3245, South Africa; phone +27 33 3433911).
South Africa, Botswana & Zambia with Africa 2000
A query in ITN’s “Person to Person” section led to a deluge of recommendations for Africa 2000 (P.O. Box 1204, Hilton 3245, South Africa; phone +27 33 3433911, fax 3431786).
My husband, Frank, and I and three other couples (a very nice group size) worked for many months with the Africa 2000 owners, Gill and Graham Maskell, to develop a trip which suited all our interests and budgets. The result was the trip of a lifetime, March 25-April 17, 2008.
