Review: Invaluable on Safari, and Gleefully Accepted Gift - Just came back from 21 days on Safari in Kenya and Tanzania and used this every single day, along with East Africa Birds. There's a great story to tell, too, about the gift this became (see below). It fit perfectly in my vest pocket and was an invaluable quick look-up guide on washboard roads and at quiet water-hole observatories alike. We saw everything there was to see in our neck of the woods, many times over, and it didn't take long to memorize animals and ID them just from their profiles in the savannah, thanks to this guide. (The only suggestion I'd make to improve it is to add birds in flight -- the coloring is often spectacular and makes some birds easier to ID.) I used my more extensive guide in the evenings for the official log. In addition, this helped with our amazingly well-informed and cheerful driver-guides and our trip tour guide, all of whom spoke English to some degree but in the heat of the drives could use some com support. They each had practically Masters degrees in ecosystems, culture, history, enviro science, and zoology, but being able to point to something WE thought we saw was useful -- and often made them laugh and tell us no, that's a water buffalo in the distance, not a rhino! I brought three with me (along with other books and items) to give away to schools and other community leaders, and to one of our guides. But the BEST outcome was when we visited the Hadzabe bush tribe outside NgoroNgoro crater/caldera. We weren't sure if we'd catch up with this nomadic tribe, but after two hours into the bush, we found their encampment and our click-tongue step-in guide introduced the nine of us to the assistant leader (a real position), named *ng*ng-o. I had taken the travel time to learn several click phrases and, after introducing myself properly to *ng*ng-o, he grabbed my hand and I became his sidekick for the morning. We danced and sang and ate baboon and shot arrows and sat in a *ng*ng-boko (baobab). At one point he, along with their kids and others, were demonstrating which arrows were used for which animals, when I pulled this guide out to try to follow along and make notes. The kids swarmed me and were utterly fascinated by this little laminated visual! I asked our interpreter if it would be OK to offer it as a gift before we left, since I didn't want to intrude on any efforts the tribe or Tanzania were making to retain their culture, and he said, "Sure!" He admitted it may not last long on their nomadic and very spare safaris (journeys), but they'd appreciate it. So at the end of the visit, I offered this to *ng*ng-o, and he accepted with a huge grin and twinkles in his eyes, and the kids took it over immediately. When everyone else had gone to the two jeeps, and I lingered a bit to say goodbye, he gave me a bow and three arrows in return!! I was over the moon with grins over this cultural exchange. I also told him he'd make a great husband, having been the hunter of the baboon the night before, which they'd shared with us this morning (roasted, I might add). He laughed and gave me a big hug -- and a big, full kiss. Two, in fact! :-) This weapon, whose arrows are made with guinea fowl feathers and are -- thus of course -- used to bring down birds, is now among my most precious possessions. These were among the most genuinely cheerful and friendly peoples I have ever had the honor of spending time with (and I've traveled all over the world). I was so pleased to be able to give them this guide as a token of my appreciation for their sharing their culture and hunting secrets with us. Will always be grateful.
Review: Great guide for Kenya - A must have if you are going to Kenya and east Africa. I love these type of guides and this one helped me identify so many animals quickly and easily. Could also be used as a checklist with kids. It’s laminated so easy to clean off spills or dirt, folds up compactly and fits in a camera bag, purse or backpack easily. I still have mine to use as a reference for photos I’ve taken.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Pocket Guide
*by A***S on July 2, 2025*

I found this Pocket Guide, along with the East Africa Birds, to be very informative. I studied these guides prior to my 11 day safari through Kenya, and referred to them at each days end, as well. I would highly recommend both of these East Africa Pocket Guides.
