What to bring

On Safari- Informal and casual dress is appropriate. Comfortable, lightweight cotton clothing in subdued safari colours is practical. During the day, shorts or trousers are ideal, and the evenings may be chilly, so light cardigans or sweaters are appropriate. Long-sleeved shirts and trousers are also advisable in the evenings to lessen the chance of being bitten by mosquitoes. Many safari lodges have swimming pools, so bathing costumes should be taken. It is advisable to have a good pair of closed walking shoes or boots.
In the Cities- We suggest that ladies do not wear shorts in the cities, particularly in Muslim areas.
At Coastal Resorts- One-piece or bikini swimsuits are acceptable on the beach or around your hotel pool, but are not appropriate in town. Topless sunbathing is prohibited. Neither jackets nor ties are required when dining in hotels or out at restaurants.
Electricity- The mains electricity supply is 240 volts, 50 cycles - UK-style plugs. On safari, many lodges and tented camps operate their own generators, which offer intermittent electricity. Our safari car also has an inverter that can give out the same amount of power. We recommend taking a small flashlight.

Know before you go

Medical Requirements-

Yellow Fever: All travellers coming into Tanzania from any yellow fever-infected country (such as neighbouring countries like Kenya - even if you are only transiting through Nairobi) must carry a valid yellow fever certificate. You will be asked to show it on arrival.
Malaria: Malaria is an endemic disease throughout these areas. There are a number of prophylactics available, and be sure to obtain one from your physician and follow their directions. If, despite taking recommended drugs, you feel unwell and feverish, seek medical advice as soon as possible. If you are already in your destination country, please do not forget to mention that you have been in a malaria zone.
Stomach Upsets: It is advisable to carry medication supplied by your physician for simple stomach upsets. In the first few days of your trip, you may suffer from mild stomach upsets caused by food and water changes.
