Safari Planning Guide

Everything you need to know to prepare for your African safari adventure.

The best time depends on your destination and what you want to see. Generally:

  • East Africa (Great Migration): July-October for river crossings in the Mara
  • Southern Africa: May-October (dry season for best game viewing)
  • Gorilla Trekking: June-September and December-February (drier months)
  • Bird Watching: November-April when migratory birds are present

Essentials for your safari packing list:

  • Neutral-colored clothing (khaki, green, beige)
  • Lightweight jacket for early morning game drives
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen)
  • Binoculars and camera with zoom lens
  • Power adapter and portable charger
  • Basic first aid kit and medications

Yes! Many lodges and camps welcome children and offer special family-friendly safaris with:

  • Age-appropriate game drives (often with shorter durations)
  • Educational programs about wildlife and conservation
  • Family suites or interconnected rooms
  • Child-friendly meals and activities

We recommend safaris for children aged 6+ who can enjoy and appreciate the experience.

Recommended health preparations:

  • Consult your doctor about necessary vaccinations (yellow fever, typhoid, etc.)
  • Malaria prophylaxis for most safari destinations
  • Pack insect repellent with DEET
  • Bring any prescription medications in original containers
  • Consider travel insurance with medical evacuation
  • Stay hydrated and use sunscreen
