What To Bring On A Safari

Binoculars:

these are very essential for any safari to Rwanda so a must pack, as they will greatly enhance game drives and forest walks, they will give you a good sight for animals and birds in far range as well as a better view to primate species like chimps, golden monkey among others.

Come with a camera and sufficient stock of film:

Print film is available but transparency film is not, a camera is good in capturing photos that will act as a remembrance ounce you go back home

Luggage and bags:

a bag is very essential for any safari to Rwanda, as it will help to carry your accessories like a camera, note book, a jacket, and snacks among others. So a must include on things to pack on your safari to Rwanda.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear:

in terms of clothing, you must bring short and long sleeved shirts or blouses, long skirts and long pants and also sturdy pair of walking shoes they are recommended during the nature walk or during gorilla tracking.

Bring medical supplies

like sting eaze, mosquito repellent or you can come with a first aid kit with anti-diarrhea, motion sickness pills, rehydration sachets, medicine, aspirin, cold medication, antiseptic cream, band-aids, lip balm, eye drops and personal medication.

Photo Equipment:

On the gorilla trail, I wished I’d suffered the extra weight of a better camera lens. If you have nice camera equipment, this is the time to bring it along.

Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear:

For hiking, Tencel pants worked great; they don’t pick up briars and nettles as jeans do. And, when they got wet, they dried quickly. Good hiking boots are a must. Otherwise, you will slip and slide.

Flashlight:

As sometimes power goes off so the process of connecting to generator, you are able to light, so a must pack

A waterproof and windproof jacket:

Since Rwanda is a tropical African country, it can rain at any time so don’t forget to pack one

Bring two or three bottles of water for a gorilla hike; you’ll be happy to have it.

More so if you have more holidays after your safari packages you can come with sports attires that you can you use to engage in sports activities like football, athletics among others so boots and jerseys are vital
