Print it, tick it, pack it
Six checklists we use ourselves, as clean A4 PDFs. Enter your email, get the file, print it. We send an occasional safari story and nothing else.
Safari packing list
The one list everyone wants. Built around the 15 kg soft-bag rule on light aircraft.
DownloadFirst-safari planning checklist
What to book when, from the first idea to the airport. Deposits, visas, vaccinations, insurance and the things with lead times.
DownloadSelf-drive Kruger checklist
Everything to book and know before you drive into Kruger yourself, from gate times to what to do when an elephant is in the road.
DownloadNamibia & Botswana 4x4 checklist
For a self-drive through Etosha, the desert, Moremi or Chobe: what the vehicle must have, what to carry, and the rules at the border.
DownloadSafari with children checklist
Which reserves take children, which camps are fenced, how to handle malaria and long drives, and what to pack to keep them engaged.
DownloadCamera & gear checklist
For anyone taking a camera on safari, phone or full-frame: lenses, support, dust protection, batteries and a starting setup for the vehicle.
DownloadWhy the email? It lets us send you the list, and occasionally a story or a change in visa rules worth knowing. Unsubscribe any time with one click. We never sell or share your address. Privacy policy.
