Packing for Safari

If you are traveling during hot /warm months, pack light, comfortable clothes. In a slightly cooler season, it is advisable to pack a sweater or jacket. Carry both long pants and shorts, preferably in darker colors such as brown or beige as these do not catch dirt fast. Carry formal clothes, such as jacket and tie if you intend to visit up market restaurants or clubs with a dress code. If you plan to spend some time in one of Kenya's amazing beaches, be sure to pack bathing suits, bikinis, goggles and towels. Plenty of clothing is available in Kenya's many department stores incase you would like to purchase something. Hotels are equipped with laundry services and as such you do not need to carry a change of clothing for every single day.


For a safari adventure, pack comfortable closed shoes, preferably sneakers. A pair of sandals is also advisable for walking around the cities or beaches. For mountain climbing, waterproof boots are essential. As with the clothes, try to pack dark colored shoes- any color, but avoid white items, as they get dirty really fast.
