Africa safari photo workshop
I almost went to southern Chile/Argentina a few years ago(Patagonia), but backed out because of the political BS and poor reviews with both countries. I have only considered Africa, but never too seriously because they won't allow you to carry weapons, and I wouldn't go there unless HEAVILY armed.....
Why so serious?

I can't imagine the tours would go anywhere near troubled areas, they want to follow the safe path too.

We are heading to Morocco in December but have been considering an African safari. I know people who have been in Africa many times and never with incident. Personally it's a spot I have never been and looking forward to going.I'm just curious, and perhaps my answer to this question lies within my insurance papers. But would any of you know if your normal equipment insurance will be covered out of country?
