Luggage and equipment to bring

Generally, light clothing is recommended, plus a woollen layer for cooler evenings or when climbing to higher altitudes where warmer clothes may also be needed in some places. Also bring sun and dust protection, rain gear for the season, mosquito protection, good walking shoes, and binoculars for wildlife viewing on safaris.
