Enjoying your Kenya Safari begins packing smartly ensuring you stay comfortable, flexible and fully prepared for your unforgettable dream tour in Kenya. The most important things to keep in mind while packing for your Kenya safari is your comfort and weather adaptability. Begin by packing light breathable clothing with neutral colours such as brown, green or khaki.
These are very important colour shades as they help you blend in the natural surroundings. Always avoid wearing heavy fabrics and very brightly coloured clothes as daytime temperatures tend to get high which might make you feel uncomfortable.
Sun protection is very essential, pack a wide brimmed hat, high quality sunglasses with UV protection and a strong sunscreen rated SPF 50+. The sun in Kenya tends to be a little intense especially during the midday game drives. You can also come with a lip balm which is a good addition.
Most tour companies in Kenya such as Tripsasa Tours always suggest you come with a good pair of binoculars. They greatly enhance your experience while viewing wildlife as it allows you to watch wildlife without disturbing them. If you are a photography lover then makes sure to pack a camera with extra batteries and memory cards.
Another must have item is insect repellent for evening hours. Make sure to choose a repellent with DEET or other proven ingredients to help protect against mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are usually notorious during the evening hours and thus having a good insect repellent would greatly help you survive the region.
Most tour companies in Kenya guidelines on the required luggage limits for flight check-ins and specific packing recommendations especially for the fly-in safaris where soft bags are recommended. By packing thoughtfully, you will ensure that you have a smooth, enjoyable and stress-free safari experience in Kenya.
