What to Bring

Since we want your safari experience to be perfect and completely comfortable, we recommend a few items that we believe you should remember to bring along:

  • From October to April, bring casual summer clothes. A warm jersey/sweater would be useful for the cooler morning and evening temperatures.
  • From May to September, bring casual light clothing, but remember to bring a very warm, insulated or padded parka/jacket for the very cold mornings and nights – a scarf and gloves are very useful too!
  • Cotton clothing in neutral colours is recommended for game drives and compulsory for walks. Keep whites and dark colours to a minimum as they attract certain bugs.
  • Comfortable walking shoes, track shoes or boots for the bush walks make life so much easier.
  • Sandals to wear at meals and within the lodge area.
  • Shorts for the walks and the warm midday periods.
  • Dinners are casual.
  • Swimming trunks.
  • Sun block, sun hat, sunglasses and lip balm.
  • Extra pair of correction glasses (if you wear them).
  • Contact lens solution and an extra set of contact lenses (if required).
  • Cameras, binoculars and your favourite film. We do sell all types of film at the lodges so if yours runs out, it’s not serious.
  • Video camera and a spare battery. (Batteries can be recharged in your suite; electricity voltage is 220V. Power converters and spare video cassettes are available on request).
