Gavin Blair Safaris 
Gavin Blair Safaris Gavin and Marjorie Blair run a safari company that operates in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia and Zambia. From their site you can access a superb set of newsletters beginning in August 2000 and continuing monthly.
These newsletters are diaries of their travels and commentaries on the animals they meet. The texts contain photos of the animals, which are of high quality. (You might expect this if you ever have a chance to see the Gavin in action and realise just how many photos he takes!)
On-line water-hole cameras 
On-line cameras, typically at water-holes in African game reserves. Also underwater cameras, etc.
Kenya - Bwana Zulia 
Plenty of varied information about Kenya in a nicely-built site.
Gorillas 1 A revealing account. Crossing the border into Zaire for a good gorilla visit followed by a bad experience with Zairian soldiers.
Gorillas 2 Two visits to gorilla sites in Uganda. Brief experiences of volunteer work with chimpanzees. Written in diary format.
Kilimanjaro A short diary of a climbing Kilimanjaro. Well-presented and some nice photographs available.
A Dragoman trans-Africa truck trip Adrian's Diary. This makes interesting reading. They started in Zimbabwe then followed through Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania to Kenya. At the end I felt I had a pretty good insight of life on a trans-Africa truck ride. It is well written and the photos are attractively presented.
Incidentally, you might like to follow the link back to Dragoman's Travel Stories. These are also worth reading, but Adrian's is the only one with photos of the places visited.
Zimbabwe Some bits of information about stay in and travel from Harare.
Kenya, Malawi, Uganda (gorillas), Zimbabwe
Photos of India Lots and lots of pictures. A collection of photographs taken on three visits to India, in '98, '99, & 2000, covering Dharamsala, Manali, Rishikesh, Ladakh, Kashmir, Taj Mahal, Varanasi & Vrindaban.
"It is still being added to, some commentary about the destinations will be added soon. Oct 2000."
Diary of a visit to Nepal Written in a direct and simple style, without pretensions. I liked this: I felt that I was experiencing the visit with him. The embedded photos are good. The trip was one by Travelbag Adventures.
Photos of a visit to Pakistan Photos and some descriptive text. Trekking in the mountains after an approach by jeep. The photos are all on one page and of fairly high resolution: you can look at the first few while the rest are loading!
India, Nepal, Kashmir, Ladakh, Sikkim.
Travel Corner Borneo, Ladakh and Nepal.
The site is interesting and informative. There are also some nice programming bits in the site construction.
The Dutch have a reputation for being earnest and thorough. This Dutch site is good for information and you will enjoy reading the texts. There are photos included separately.
Tajicat's Travels One of the most interesting sites, combining computing skills with artistry and humour. I put it under this heading because of the prominence of giraffe-neck women, but it does have other countries: Ecuador, Egypt. A site worth visiting!
Rhymer.net An unusual site. Written in diary format. The journey starts in India and proceeds via Nepal, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philipines, Papua, Laos, Vietnam. But you are not going to read about the usual tourist things.
Instead you are going to learn a lot about the author's view of the world and the people he meets on his travels. The travelling has a curious similarity to the "Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy". It contains some very curious bits and some very amusing bits.
Very quiet for travel diaries!
Trekking, skiing and huts for Australian regions, especially NSW. New Zealand.
A collection of Travel Diaries These are my own contributions, so it is likely you have seen them already along the route you took to get here. If not, then they are a set of illustrated diaries of travels world-wide.
Mostly trekking, wildlife and/or third world living. Borneo / India (Spiti) / Kenya / Madeira / Madagascar / Malawi / Morocco / Peru / Sulawesi / Thailand / Uganda (gorillas) / Venezuela / Zimbabwe
A collection of Travel Photos 
These are a truly superb set of photographs - you will get pleasure from seeing them. The photos are captioned with interesting information.
Steve has visited Botswana / Egypt / Jordan / Kenya / Namibia / Nepal / Peru / Syria
Travel Photos of many destinations Photos elegantly presented in a thumbnail format: click to see high quality full size images.
Alan is Australian and he has coverage of / trekking, skiing and huts for Australian regions, especially NSW. His travels currently include Antarctic / Bolivia / India / Nepal / New Zealand / Kashmir / Ladakh / Patagonia / Peru / Sikkim.
Many destinations The good news is that the travels include Argentina / Botswana / Bolivia / Chile / Congo / Ethiopia / Iceland / India / Kenya / Madagascar / Malaysia / Namibia / Nepal / Peru / New Zealand / Syria / Tanzania / Uganda / Zambia / Zimbabwe. Also, the photos that you are able to see look good.
The bad news is that the site is constructed around a series of Blind-mans-buff menus which either show or lead to sets of notes and photos. Sadly, in March 2002, I was unable to get any of the larger versions of the photos to appear.
Good photo collection Called Hawk's Page. The locations include Australia / Botswana / Hong Kong / Indonesia / Namibia / Zimbabwe
Downloading is slow, since you get all of the photos on the page arriving at high size/resolution. However, the picture quality is good and he has a good eye for taking nice photos. Mostly the photos are wildlife or scenery, but there are also photos of friends and the Hong Kong page has many of shops and offices. Er schreibt English viel besser als kann ich Deutsch schreiben.
1000 Travel Tips This has travel information in quantity and quality. It covers a wide range of travel information. There are links to other sites in Asia, Middle East and central America. Ratings are given for these sites.
A high-quality site.
A list of Travel Stories A smaller collection than the one above, but much more selective. Also, the author's opinions are given for the sites he lists. Not all of the links were up-to-date when I followed them.
If you spot any errors, or if you want to tell me about another site please leave a message
Such messages are very welcome since I have only found a few links
to sites of the "information plus photos" type with interesting destinations.
Each of the websites listed here will have only one entry. However it may cover several geographical zones. So, how does one find things?
In the border at the top of this screen there are links to the geographical zones I have used.
If you click on one of these links the main panel will move to the entries which are wholly or mainly in the zone you requested.
The zone will usually have two sorts of entries.....
Entries with "Goto" buttons. These are the main references you wanted.
Entries with "Links" buttons. Clicking on such a button will take you to entries which are relevant but are listed elsewhere (for example because much of their site content covers a different geographical zone).
N.B. Sites in Europe and North America are not included in these listings.
P.S. Also, had you considered searching this page for the name of a country or place?
