    Informative video thanks for that. My family and I are going to South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe for a Safari in the last week of June and 1st week of July, I recently just found out that is winter over there so yes I am a concerned about the packing part for this most incredible trip that we are planning. I will check your blog and hopefully I will find more answers and tips as well.

    Thanks! Headed to South Africa and my limit is always 6.5 kilos. So this helps a lot! Thanks for the tip about above the knee being too short😊

      Hi Joshua. You can buy those belts with the beadwork in East Africa. I love them too.

    Hi! Can you recommend a duffel that packs well and that fits the measurement standards for a South African safari trip? Having trouble deciding what duffel bag will fit all our things and still hold up to the elements and the strict size restrictions! Thank you

    • @LoriSavingWild
      @LoriSavingWild  2 роки тому +2

      Eagle Creek has a wide variety and are super popular for safaris. I sent you an email with the packing list you requested. Thanks for watching.

    you didn't take anything for a little dressier at dinner in the evening? I was thinking of a very thin maxi skirt, that goes with several of my T-shirts I am already taking.

    • @LoriSavingWild
      @LoriSavingWild  5 років тому

      Yes that sounds good. I find though that with my groups that I lead we often go straight to dinner when we return from our afternoon drive, so we dont change. Also, if we are having drinks around the fire before dinner it can be cool. The mosquitoes are around at dawn and dusk so that is another reason I have leaned away from having my legs exposed. I hope that helps. Safari Njema!
