Visit your doctor (ideally 4-6 weeks) before your trips to get any vaccines and medicines you may need.  The following are recommended:

All Travellers:

• Routine Vaccines: Make sure you are up-to-date on routine vaccines before every trip. These include MMR, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, varicella (chickenpox), polio vaccines and your yearly flu shot.

  • People who will be working with or around animals
• Yellow Fever: There is no risk of yellow fever in South Africa. The government of RSA requires proof of yellow fever vaccination  only if you are arriving from a country with risk of yellow fever.

If you are staying in one of the main camps, no more than 3 days supply of clothing will be needed. Our staff will clean and press your clothes daily. If you have two pairs of boots the spare set will be polished. If touring, we will be going from place to place. One set of clothes for each day is recommended.

This depends greatly on the region traveled to and the time of year. Remember South Africa's seasons are reversed from the Northern hemisphere countries, with April through October being the cool, dry fall and winter months.  For most part, daytime temperatures are pleasant and range from 60 to 80 degrees F.  Night time temperature gets chilly especially close to the rivers. Bring a warm jacket.

See the following table to give you an indication as to what the average temperatures are.

The South African electricity supply is 220/230 volts AC 50 HZ. Most plugs are 15 amp 3-prong or 5 amp 2-prong, with round pins. If an adaptor is called for, consider bringing one with you, although they can be purchased locally. US-made appliances may need a transformer.
