The Ultimate Tanzania Safari Packing List

Packing well makes a safari more comfortable and your photos better. Here’s what to bring — and what to leave at home.

Clothing

Light, neutral-coloured clothes (avoid bright colours and dark blue), a warm layer for chilly morning drives, a wide-brimmed hat and comfortable shoes.

Gear

Binoculars, a camera with a zoom lens, spare batteries and a power bank, plus a small daypack for game drives.

Essentials

Sunscreen, insect repellent, any personal medication and a reusable water bottle. Once you book, we send a detailed, trip-specific list.
