Clothing

Remember, it’s not a fashion show out there, so be a bit more practical when choosing your safari wardrobe. Try to stay away from bright colors – khaki and other neutral colors tend to work well. It is probably best if you dress in layers since it can get cold, but also very hot.

Others tips

Bring soft luggage such as a duffel bag, hiking pack or sports bag. These are ideal for
packing into a safari vehicle. Hard suitcases can often be difficult to fit into the vehicles.
Bring a backpack to carry all of your important items including travel documents, money,
camera, medication etc. You should keep this backpack with you at all times.
Keep luxury items such as hair dryers/ straighteners, expensive jewelers, make up and
bulky toiletries to an absolute minimum. If in doubt, leave them out.
If you plan to bring cash, divide it into different areas of your carry-on luggage, wallet
and money belt just in case something happens to one of those carry items.
Leave some space in your luggage for the all-important souvenirs that you will probably
buy. There are places where you can send packages home via DHL etc. however this can
sometimes be an expensive option.

With a commitment to personalized service and unforgettable journeys, Lovebird Safari ensures every traveler experiences the beauty and wonder of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes.
