When packing for a Kenya safari, it’s important to pack smart and pack light. Here are some essential items to consider:
- Clothing: Lightweight and breathable clothing in neutral colors. Long-sleeved shirts and pants are recommended to protect against the sun and insects. Don’t forget a warm jacket or sweater for chilly mornings and evenings.
- Footwear: Comfortable walking shoes or hiking boots for game drives and walking safaris. Sandals or flip-flops for relaxing at the camp.
- Protection: A wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen with a high SPF. Insect repellent and a mosquito net for added protection.
- Photography: A good quality camera with extra batteries and memory cards. Binoculars for wildlife viewing.
- First Aid: Basic first aid kit including any necessary prescription medications. Hand sanitizer and wet wipes for hygiene purposes.
- Miscellaneous: A lightweight backpack, a reusable water bottle, and a headlamp or flashlight for nighttime activities
