Remember packing for a safari in Tanzania, the most important thing is moderation. While there is no need to go minimalist, you also don’t want to carry a lot of unnecessary luggage across Africa with you. When traveling on safari you will move with their luggage in the safari vehicle throughout the tour. Also, for the days spent in the same hotel or lodge, of course, you will leave your bags in your room. if you bring too much luggage it could be an inconvenience or even a hindrance to wildlife viewing. But this depending on the number of the people in the jeep.
We have created a packing list, based on years of leading excellent safaris, to help you pack just the right items (but not too much!) for your incredible safari in Tanzania:
Keep in mind, every Altezza safari vehicle is stocked with a basic first-aid kit. If you have prescription medications or special needs, please come prepared with your necessary medications.
• antimalarial drugs (such as Malarone, Lariam);
• tablets from motion sickness, if you are susceptible;
• antihistamines for allergies (Claritin, Loratadine, Azelastine), which can be difficult to purchase in Tanzania;
• Inhaler for asthma remedy, as the dust may aggravate asthmatic symptoms;
• Any prescription medications you may require.
These pesky insects are only active in the early morning and evening, likely when you are already back at your accommodations for the evening. Alternatively, wearing a long-sleeved shirt can help deter mosquitoes, as well.
The equatorial sun is strong in Tanzania, and you are likely to be at a higher elevation throughout your Tanzanian safari, especially when in Ngorongoro or the highlands. Choose a product with SPF 40 protection or higher to protect your skin.
Even if the weather forecast guarantees the lack of sun, don't hurry up to lay out protective glasses. They will help protect your eyes from wind, dust and small insects while you pop out of the window or through the open roof of the running speed car in search of objects for observation. Put in your backpack:
As we have mentioned above African Traces car or jeep provides a pair of binoculars for our guest’s convenience. We also have charging stations in each of our vehicles so your devices will never lose power during a safari.
We contact Marko Mtui from African Traces about a month and a half before our trip to Tanzania in order to book ourself a safari trip. Marko was very communicative and answered all our questions and wonderings.
We checked a few Safari operators in Tanzania and decided to go with African Traces (which had the best "value for money" proposal and a lot of great reviews), and we couldn't choose better!
Ich bin derzeit auf Weltreise und habe Marko und African Traces von einem anderen Reisenden empfohlen bekommen. Wir hatten unsere Kili-Tour (leider) schon woanders gebucht, eine Safari sollte noch Folgen.
Die Nummer per Whatsapp kontaktiert und es hat vom ersten Moment an gestimmt. Marko weiss was die Kunden wollen.
