    As a general guide, comfortable and casual clothing that you can wash and wear is recommended while on safari. Muted colours are best for game viewing.

    Game drives are generally conducted in the early morning and the late afternoon, which can be cold, especially in winter. The temperature often warms up during the day, so it is best to dress in layers.

    The most practical items to pack for your Zimbabwe safari are:

    • Clothes in khaki, green, beige and neutral colours
    • Long-sleeved shirts that offer protection from the sun and mosquitoes
    • T-shirts
    • Shorts or a light skirt
    • Jeans or safari trousers for evenings and cooler days
    • Jackets and sweaters for early morning and late afternoon game drives
    • A lightweight waterproof jacket in case of rain
    • Swim and beachwear
    • Comfortable walking shoes
    • Sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, insect repellent, moisturiser and lip salve
    • Binoculars and camera equipment

    Camouflage-patterned clothing is not permitted in Zimbabwe.  This applies to any clothing that can be construed as mimicking military-wear. Travellers are urged not to wear, or even carry, any military-inspired clothing while travelling in Zimbabwe.

    The luggage allowance on small flights is usually limited to a maximum of 20 kg (44 lbs), which includes hand luggage, so please bear this in mind when packing. Most lodges and camps provide a same-day laundry service for your clothes.
