When it comes to African Safari, things a lot more different in terms of Fashion. Picking the right wear from a store , be it a t-shirt, shoes, dresses, e.t.c is very important.

Tips on choosing the right safari wear for Africa

1. Choose the safari clothing according to the type of safari you are going for. If its climbing Mountain Kilimanjaro or Rwenzori, you need the right gear and heavy clothing due to weather conditions. But on the whole, light clothing is encouraged for many safari destinations.

2. Colour takes a twist here. If your favourite color is Red, forget it on a safari. Red is blood so you know what the wild animals will think of you. White clothes will not work for you, most roads are dusty! Bottom line, chose the Khaki and brown clothes.

3. Safari Hat, This is also very important. Your body needs protection from the African sun which can hit your head hard while on a safari. A hat should be able to cover the back of the neck.

4. Safari Shoes. Its all about boots and sandals right? Safari boots will be needed on a walking to trekking safari. Think about the little insects, thorns and other small creatures getting access to your feet! Taking about Sandals, your feet need to breathe after a safari. Adventures involving game drives, launch cruises and other less active safari options may necessitate you to carry sandals along.
