What to bring
Because this is not your average holiday we’d like to help you out with some advice on what to bring for an ultimate safari experience. We hope to give you a bit of an idea on how to pack your bags and be 100% prepared.
Important note while choosing your wardrobe is to avoid wearing bright colours, vibrant patterns & heavy or strong perfume or cologne. As animals are very sensitive to sights and smell and they might keep their distance from you. Rather choose natural bush colors such as khaki, olive green, light grey. Avoid black, blue and white colors as they tend to attract Tsetse flies.
