Footwear: You must wear closed-toe walking shoes, such as sneakers or light hiking boots. You will be walking on uneven, dusty dirt trails parallel to the herd.
Colors: Wear neutral earth tones (khaki, tan, olive, or brown) to blend into the environment. Avoid bright red clothing, as it can startle or visually overstimulate the animals.
Scents: Skip heavy perfume, cologne, or heavily scented lotions. Elephants have an incredibly acute sense of smell, and unfamiliar chemical aromas can cause them unnecessary stress or irritation.
Accessories: Avoid wearing loose, dangling items like long scarves or large loop earrings. Curiosity may prompt an elephant to investigate them with its trunk.
