Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Safari shopping experience:

1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Safari offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Safari at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.

2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about

3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Safari? Wrong! If the Safari is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.

4. Questions - Got a question about Safari then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....

5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Safari? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Safari and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.

6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Safari wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.

7. Feedback - happy with your Safari then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.

8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Safari site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

9. Contact - got a question about Safari, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.

10. Payment - ready to pay for your Safari, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.

A safari (International Phonetic Alphabet: ) is an overland journey. It usually refers to a trip by tourists to Africa, traditionally for a Big Five game Hunting#Safari and in more modern times to watch and photograph big game and other wildlife as a safari holiday. There is a certain theme or style associated with the word, which includes khaki clothing, belted bush jackets, pith helmets or slouch hats, and animal skins—like leopard skin.

Etymology Entering the English language in the late 19th century, the word safari means "journey" in Swahili language. Originally from the Arabic language سفر (safara) meaning travel Hans Wehr Arabic-English Dictionary The verb for "to travel" in Swahili is "safiri", the noun for the journey is "safari". These words are used for any type of journey, e.g. by bus from Nairobi to Mombasa.

Touristic usage Although the word safari came to popular usage in reference to hunting and touring expeditions in East Africa, it is now used generally to mean any long or adventurous journey or expedition, e.g. whale watching safaris, photography safaris, ecotourism etc.

As a cinema genre The safari provided countless hours of cinema entertainment in sound films from Trader Horn (1931 film) (1931) onwards. The safari was used in many adventure films such as the Tarzan, Jungle Jim, and Bomba the Jungle Boy film series up to The Naked Prey where great white hunter Cornel Wilde becomes game himself. Safaris were parodied in the comedies Road to Zanzibar and Call Me Bwana, both with Bob Hope. An instant 15 minute helicopter safari was shown in Africa Addio where clients are armed, flown from their hotel and landed in front of an unlucky and baffled elephant.
