No Carnet for Africa
So, it is in fact true. The only country you really need a carnet for in the whole of Africa is South Africa. Everywhere else can be done on a passavant. Egypt has its own temporary importation document so no need for a carnet and senegal will allow you in without a carnet everywhere except for the Northern border (although you can get in there for 80-100 euros!)
Sadly I intend to go through S.Africa. Does anyone know of any other way of getting into and out of South Africa without a carnet de passage, probably coming in via Namibia?
Because this is just plain unfair to make it all that way without one and have to spend the same amount of money getting one for SA as it would cost for the rest of Africa (except for Kenya and Egypt)
