THINGS TO BRING:
Print off this list and check the boxes as you pack to ensure nothing gets left behind.
(Remember your clothes are washed daily so you do not need as much as you would think.)
Picutures of multi plug to take USA 2 or 3 pin plug and numerous other countries plugs for your devices - the large 3 pins fit into our SA wall outlets :
WEATHER / CLOTHING:
Plan your safari for cold weather. The temps at the same time of year in Tanzania compared to the Eastern Cape are completely different. Where in Tanzania it could be very warm, at the same time it may be very cold in the Cape, especially in the mornings.
If you must take shorts, buy the zippered type pants that you can pull the legs on and off. For hunting you will NOT want to wear shorts as the country is rocky and hard you may have to crawl, if you can crawl. The shorts are for camp, not in the field here. We CRAWL if you can, but if not your PH will get you in to the game and to the distance you can shoot at.
Again, please plan for it to be cold and if it’s not you can always take cloths off. Think of hunting in the U.S. West in October/November and plan for the same.
Remember, most safaris are held in AFRICA'S winter and it can get cold here. Colors of hunting clothes should be greens, khaki, tans, and desert camo will also work. The dark greens/camo usually worn in the U.S. will stick out in most areas we hunt in South Africa. Light colors are NOT good.
