Preparing for a safari is part of the adventure. From choosing the right clothing to checking your travel documents, a little preparation will help you enjoy every moment in the wild.
Neutral, layered clothing keeps you comfortable from cool early drives to warm afternoons on the plains.
Gather your paperwork a few weeks ahead, and travel with both printed and digital copies.
Entry requirements may vary depending on your nationality and itinerary. Please check the latest official requirements before travelling.
Sun, dust and long days in the vehicle — a small comfort kit makes every drive easier.
For medical advice, vaccinations and malaria prevention, consult a qualified healthcare professional before your trip.
The small things our guests are always glad they packed for long days in the parks.
Most guests travel lighter than they expect. Vehicles carry limited luggage space, laundry is available at many camps, and the days settle into a simple rhythm — an early drive, a long lunch in the shade, and a second drive as the light turns gold.
If you are unsure about anything on your list, send us a message before you pack. Our guides know exactly what the parks ask of you at each time of year.
Make sure your passport, visa and travel insurance details are ready well before departure.
Safari mornings can be cool, while afternoons are often warm. Lightweight layers are the most practical choice.
Save digital copies of your itinerary, travel documents and emergency contacts on your phone, and keep a printed backup.
