long sleeves needed for game reserves

No matter if Africa, bring jacket with

Luggage and bags: I am travelling with my samsonite bag, actually half bag half knapsack, huge enough to put half of my wardrobe in it. It is waterproof of course and very resistant.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Two pairs of trousers, two or three bermudas, all made of cotton fabrics. Dozen t-shirts, 3 or 4 nice polo-shirts, 3 or 4 shirts, all made of cotton fabrics. Jacket of light leather is what you need for chilly evenings in Nairobi or northern parts of Kenya. Two pairs of sneekers and one pair of safari type shoes, game reserves might be very dusty. Sports wear with long sleeves might be very usefull too. As for underwaer, all made out of cotton.

Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Tabletes against malaria are a must, don't go there without because you need to take one every week.

Photo Equipment: don't forget to take your camera and memory cards with huge capacity. Additional lens is recommendable especially for safari tours.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
