We will provide necessary information about vaccinations and malaria prevention when you book your safari. Malaria is a serious disease but with the proper preventatives this issue can greatly be avoided. We strive to travel to malaria-free areas as much as possible. Wash your hands frequently, cover exposed skin with insect repellent. If you are concerned, check with your physician or local health department.

On your safari you will experience animals in their natural surroundings. Remember, you are in their habitat. Your guides will let you know the safe distance in every situation. Be sure to listen to your guides and follow their instructions at all times.
Every item you put in your suitcase should serve a purpose and should pair with other clothes easily. Zip-off pants that convert into shorts are ideal. Waterproof shoes and clothing. Clothing that is appropriate for hiking in high altitudes. Don’t forget protection from the sun: sunglasses, a good sun hat, and sun block. Strong insect repellent. You will receive a detailed packing list when you book with Feline Safaris Tanzania Limited™.
We suggest at least six months in advance if possible. Especially if you desire to travel from June through October.
This is high time because the weather is dry and the great migration occurs.
The best currency to travel with is the U.S. dollar and the European euro. Each east African country have their own currency, but most countries accept the U.S. dollar.
