Hiking boots are not necessary but for those concerned about ankle support, they will come in handy. Make sure that whatever you bring, they’re broken in before you arrive.
Sandals – Because we’ll be traveling a lot by car, and because there will be a lot of dust and dirt, bring a pair of sandals like Chaco, KEENs or Tevas so you can easily wash them (and your feet) once back at the hotel/lodge. Consider wearing them with socks otherwise your feet might get bitten by bugs.
Old tennis shoes – This is another good alternative. You can leave these behind after the safari and the locals will appreciate it. Bottom line is wear comfortable walking shoes.
