Important information

Suitable for all physical fitness levels

The adventure of Safari is often unpredictable so we advise that our guests kindly bring with them the following Safari gear

Camera

Binoculars

A good bush hat for summer months or warm beanie in winter

Sunglasses

Comfortable shoes

What to Wear - Summer Months (September to April)

Cool functional attire preferably in dull darker shades to create uniformity with vehicle and not stand out visually to game species. Always remember a good hat as well as sunscreen. Midday temperatures can reach upward of 40 degrees and afternoons can experience thunder showers. All vehicles are equipped with blankets and waterproof ponchos for our guests.

What to Wear - Winter Months (May to August)

During the winter months we typically experience blue skies with a daily average temperature of 20 - 25 degrees celcius. Early morning and late afternoons are cooler and we recommend warmer attire as this is amplified when travelling on an open safari vehicle. We do provide blankets but long pants, jacket and beanie are recommended.

Lastly

Children must be accompanied by an adult

Children 6 years and older welcome

Passport name, number, expiry and country is required at time of booking for all participants
