What to pack!

Suggestions What to Pack for your Safari:

​

We recommend that you bring comfortable, casual, wash-and-wear clothing.

Neutral earthy tones are best. Make sure your clothing is lightweight (preferably cotton) allowing your body to breathe.

 

The weather:

Our summer (September-April) possible rains – so pack a light weight rain jacket.

The weather is hot, so light weight clothing (cotton) is advised.

 

Winter months (May – August) Can get very chilly – below freezing at night but by late morning warm enough for shorts and t-shirts.

Be sure to pack warm coat, beanie, scarf, gloves, jumper, do pack shorts, t-shirts as you will need these by lunch time!

 

• Sun Hat

• Good quality sunglasses

• Warm hat, scarf and gloves in winter months (May/June – August)

• 5 T-shirts

• 2 x light long sleeve shirts (cotton or UV resistant fishing shirts are best)

• 3 pairs shorts

• 2 pairs Jeans / trousers (lightweight are good for the evenings)

• 1 tracksuit

• 1 sweater

• 1 warm jacket

• underwear and socks

• 1 pair of good walking shoes / ensure sturdy soles (we have impressive thorns)

• 1 pair of sandals

• swimming costume

• Sun protection

• Day back pack

 

Cameras & Equipment:

Binoculars – although we have close encounters with animals, in some circumstances sightings are from a distance away. Therefore a good pair of binoculars are essential.

A good torch / flashlight – imperative per person.

Extra batteries – for torches, cameras, video, shavers etc.

 

Please bring soft bags as these are easier for packing in the vehicles and aircraft.

The weight limit is 20kg's per person (this includes hand luggage) on all light aircraft. (Soft bags only)
