Safari Packing list for Zambia

A comprehensive vacation packing guide for your Zambian safari

Over-packing easily heads the list of biggest travel mistakes.

Some Airlines will allow only one bag/per passenger, weighing up to 23 kg in the hold. Passengers arriving with extra bags will pay heavy.

SUGGESTED CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT:
We recommend that you take comfortable, casual, wash-and-wear clothing. White and bright colours should be avoided. Please take soft bags as these are easier for packing in the vehicles and aircraft. Evening dresses are not necessary. In the bigger hotels gentlemen may wear a jacket for dinner
