Your own clothing, which can be worn under the overall, should be thin, but warm and comfortable. You are also welcome to leave your jackets etc. for storage in our office for the duration of the safari.
Some tips for under layers:
- Dress in layers. Use many thin, warm layers rather than a few thick layers. It will insulate better and allow you to strip off some layers if the temperature climbs. Staying dry is the top priority.
- When wearing layers, better to wear clothing that is not too tight. Loose clothing helps to trap a layer of warm air between the fabric and your body, which acts as insulation to keep you warm.
- Add a first layer consisting of a comfortably light fabric that will remove the sweat away from your body. Avoid pure cotton, linen, or other similar materials, however, because these fabrics retain moisture and will chill you down. The best material is synthetic fiber.
- Next layer should be a knit sweater, sweatshirt or fleece. This layer is to keep you warm. Also, a warm tracking suit will do or the latest trend of one piece overalls.
- Wear thick socks, preferably layering one thin pair with one or two thicker ones. Use socks made of 100% wool or wool blends for a better insulation, and avoid cotton socks in cold temperatures
- Thin under gloves (best material is fleece)
Also, remember to pack a good moisturizer with you as the cold air can dry your skin and lips.
The same way as adults: remember the layers and warm, long, under wear. As long as the children keep on moving, they will be warm in same weather as the adults. Smallest children such as babies and toddlers should be protected with more layers, as they do not move as much. Before booking your safari, please consider if 2-5 hours outside in winter conditions is suitable for your child.
