What to pack for your safari adventure

What to pack for your safari?

Heading into the savannah is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many travelers, but staying comfortable in such a new environment takes some preparation. From clothing and medications to practical travel tips, there’s a lot to consider. That’s why we created a comprehensive, all-seasons Safari Packing Guide to make packing easy and stress-free.

You won’t need bulky raincoats or rubber shoes — our pop-up roof Land Cruisers keep you covered in both dry and rainy seasons. Instead, the guide focuses on protection from sun, dust, insects, and chilly mornings. It also helps you prepare for the unique realities of Tanzanian safaris, like unpaved roads and limited connectivity in conservation areas. Still finalizing your plans? You'll find expert advice on personalizing your trip, choosing the right camps, and adjusting your itinerary as needed.

These are just a few of the topics covered in our Safari Packing Guide. Dive in and get ready for an unforgettable adventure.

What to wear on safari?

At Altezza Travel, we’re committed to making sure your journey to Africa is as rewarding and comfortable as possible. We know that wearing the right clothes can make a big difference. While Tanzania’s days are usually warm, mornings and evenings can get surprisingly chilly. That’s why our packing guide includes smart layering tips to help you stay comfortable as temperatures shift throughout the day.

To help you get an even better feel for what to expect, check out our YouTube video. We share practical tips, outfit ideas, and proven safari hacks based on real experience in the Tanzanian bush.

Can’t stop talking about this trip

I haven’t stopped talking about this trip + Altezza since we got home!! We decided to go on Safari for our honeymoon and didn’t even know where to start! Altezza was recommend to us and we never looked back. Before, during and after the trip they made sure we were taken care of + went above and beyond to make it the trip of a lifetime.

They answered all of our pre-trip questions and ensured we were set. During the trip, they added personalized touches (including a customized tire cover!!) and our guide Noel was better than we could have ever imagined.

Tanzania is a special place, the people are the kindest you will ever meet and Altezza is doing an absolutely incredible job. If you are thinking of going on safari, DO IT and if you are thinking of using Altezza, DO IT! We can’t wait to go back!

Safari trip of a lifetime!

For our honeymoon we wanted to plan a truly memorable and personalised trip. Sophie helped us to plan our 7 day safari visiting Arusha, Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti national parks.

Our guide, Noel, was the perfect guide! - Kind, polite, knowledgeable and patient. We were able to see the big 5 as well as so many other animals. Thank you Noel for making our trip so special.

I would recommend Altezza for anyone looking for a truly special safari holiday.
