Focus on light layers, sun protection, practical footwear, travel documents, camera essentials and a small number of items that make long drives and early game drives easier.<\/p>\n<h2>Clothing<\/h2>\n<p>Pack comfortable neutral-coloured clothing, light layers for cool early mornings, a warmer layer for highland or dawn conditions, and closed shoes you can wear around lodges and stops.<\/p>\n<h2>Sun and Dust<\/h2>\n<p>Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and a light scarf or buff if you are sensitive to dust. Keep a small day bag accessible inside the vehicle.<\/p>\n<h2>Photography<\/h2>\n<p>Carry spare batteries or a power bank, enough memory and binoculars if you have them. A phone can be excellent for wide scenes, while a longer lens helps with wildlife at a respectful distance.<\/p>\n<h2>Documents and Health Items<\/h2>\n<p>Keep passports, travel authorisation documents, insurance information and personal medication secure and accessible. Follow current official health advice for your travel dates.<\/p>\n<h2>Luggage<\/h2>\n<p>Soft-sided bags are often easier to load in safari vehicles. Ask about luggage limits if your itinerary includes small aircraft.<\/p>\n<h2>Plan Your Safari with De Rossi Tours &amp; Safaris<\/h2>\n<p>Tell us your travel dates, arrival point, group size and preferred comfort level. We will recommend a practical route and confirm the exact inclusions before you book.
