Especially true of self-drive safaris in east Africa. Parks are big, roads
are generally not marked, and you could waste time just trying to
find your way around.

Dave,

can't confirm that. Good maps are available for the whole of
Kenya, maps including an excellent GPS map are available for
Maasai Mara, you don't need a map for Samburu and buffalo
springs, but again GPS routes are available for that area as
well.

Your comment would be true though if somebody tried to move
there without a GPS, which I think is foolish.
