General Packing Recommendations:

Bring sturdy, soft-sided luggage, which is easier to stow throughout the trip and to carry in our vehicles during transfers.

Carry any necessities, including travel documents, money, medications, and other vital supplies, in your carry-on bag, not your checked luggage.

If you plan to lock your luggage, please use a TSA-approved security device.

Leave expensive jewellery at home! If you would be heartbroken to lose the item, don’t bring it along.

Keep cash in more than one place.

A water-resistant daypack to carry cameras and other items is convenient while on game drives. Better yet, let this be your carry-on.

Please avoid bringing hair dryers, irons, radios, and excess clothing or toiletries. All points of this trip are pretty casual, and we recommend keeping luggage down to the basics. However, you can use it if you bring it along. If any of these items are necessary for you, then it is better to ask so we can check with the hotel first.

Baggage Allowance: Please bring soft-sided luggage like duffel bags, not hard suitcases. Charter flights within Tanzania strictly limit passengers to 44 lbs, including carry-ons, so the key is to pack as light as possible. Most Properties provide laundry service at a cost to be paid directly unless it is mentioned on the booking otherwise.
