Why Safari Travellers Need Unit Conversions
The safari world is split between metric and imperial systems. Most African countries use kilometres and Celsius, while some travellers are accustomed to miles and Fahrenheit. If you're planning a trip using a different system, quick conversions are essential for trip planning.
