Frequently Asked Questions

On game reserves and in national parks, visitors should wear neutral colors such as brown, khaki, and beige. Avoid wearing blue as Tstetse flies are attracted to that color. Camouflage patterns should be avoided as only the military wear this.

Game drives tend to last about 3 hours — more if game viewing is good; less if the weather conditions are extreme. Vehicles are open-sided 4x4 safari vehicles. Note that specific vehicles will vary by tour.

Accommodations vary from standard hotels to lodges, tented camps, and even safari boats. These different stays mean some different experiences, but you can trust they're all carefully selected to get you close to the action.

Speaking of, when you stay outdoors, you may find small creatures like geckos sharing your space! Talk about getting close to wildlife!

Jokes aside, these things will always be true:

  • You’ll always have immediate access to a private bathroom.
  • Both internet access and air conditioning are available, but not guaranteed.
  • Electricity is widely available, but can be disrupted. If you require use of a CPAP or breathing support overnight, we strongly recommend a different tour.

Specific vehicles vary across each park and region, but you can count on 4x4 vehicles with pop-up roofs and/or open sides. With six, eight, or at most ten people in a vehicle, travelers are always in a prime position for viewing wildlife.

Yes — each tour has unique size and weight limits for luggage. African Safari: Kenya & Tanzania and The Plains of Africa tours require travelers use a soft-sided duffel with a max weight of 33lbs/15kg. An additional small personal bag is permitted. Duffels with rollers are not recommended. Why? Space is extremely limited on safari vehicles and bags need to be malleable to fit.

For other Africa tours, most bags should be under 50lbs/23kg and less than 62in/157cm total (length, width, and height added together). Be sure to check pre-tour travel documents for specific requirements.

We recommend bringing your own universal plug adapter and voltage converter or bring appliances that have built-in voltage converters. Common plugs in this region are C, M, D, G, and N.

Good news — most lodges have access to laundry services. Clothing is typically sent out for service and returned the next day, so plan to do it on the first day of a 2-night (or more) stay. All laundry services are payable to the lodge directly.

Most lodges and camps provide mosquito nets. When not provided, the property often uses repellents, unless in the city where they're not necessary.

Travelers are encouraged to discuss antimalarial medication with their medical professional, wear protective clothing at night, and bring repellent that contains up to 30% DEET.
