Top Tips for Your First African Safari
Episode description
On this week's Just the Tip, we're giving you all the best tips for your first African safari! After going on several safaris we've learned a thing or two about the different types of safaris, when to go, and what to bring with you. We also dive into arrival tips, hiring a driver, safari etiquette, and bathrooms you'll find in the bush.
Check out our Amazon Safari List, which has our favorite binoculars as well as some of our favorite things to pack on safari.
Here are some of our favorite lodges we've stayed in while on safari:
- Victoria Falls Safari Lodge in Zimbabwe
- Twiga Safari Lodge in Murchison Falls National Park
- Primate Lodge in Kibale National Park
- Elephant Plains Lodge in Queen Elizabeth National Park
- Rushaga Gorilla Lodge in Bwindi National Park
