Excitement. A good sense of humour and an expectation to be exceeded. Your camera, a good pair of binoculars, a flashlight (torch), sunscreen, mosquito repellent and a comfortable pair of shoes (unless you are planning to do lots of hiking, keep them a comfortable sneaker type). Don’t forget your phone charger and bring along a USB or other with your music. It’s best to pack in shorts and short sleeved shirts for the warmer days and long sleeves and long pants for early mornings and evenings, a warm jacket and windbreaker for game drives. The key is to layer your clothing as the temperatures can vary during the day and while out and about on activities. Don’t forget a hat and most importantly your travel documents and passport or you won’t need any of the other stuff as you won’t be going anywhere in a hurry. We’ve got loads of advice, so if you still aren’t sure, contact your consultant for more information.
