Africa Route Advice Needed
Hello Folks,
We are laying out the groundwork for a trip from Egypt to South Africa (actually starting Germany).I have read up and researched but still have a 2 main questions/concerns:
a) How much of off-road/unpaved segment are unavoidable on this route. I know that road conditions of even paved stuff will vary - but want to avoid most of the extreme stuff. traveling with my wife and mechanical skills are limited

It seems like south of Nairobi, one can manage to stay on mostly paved roads?
b) if we want to pace at 200-300km/day, can we expect to come across decent accommodation every day... i don't mean luxury - but something more than a campsite. Or is camping gear a must. rough price ranges in various countries?
All help is appreciated
