Essential Guidelines

Passport and Visa Requirements: Ensure your passport has at least two blank pages and is valid for a minimum of 3 months from your entry date into East Africa. Verify visa entry requirements with your local embassy for all countries on your itinerary Yellow Fever Vaccination: If arriving from an endemic area, yellow fever vaccinations are mandatory. Please ensure you have the necessary documentation. Baggage Allowance: For scheduled/private charter flights within East Africa, baggage allowance is typically limited to 15kgs. Soft-sided, duffle type bags are recommended due to limited space in aircraft cargo compartments. Tipping: While not mandatory, tipping is appreciated for satisfactory service. For transfer and tour driver/guides, a suggested amount is $5 to $10 per person per day. For multi-day journeys, consider tipping at the end of the trip. Group tipping arrangements can be discussed with your consultant. Health Precautions: Emergency medical insurance is advised prior to your East Africa visit. Malaria is prevalent; take prophylactics before and after your trip. Avoid tap water; bottled water is safe. Consider travel insurance covering accidents, illness, or hospitalization. Temporary membership in the East African Flying Doctors' Service is recommended for safari-goers. Electricity Specifications: East Africa operates on a 240-volt 50 cycles power supply. Plug sockets are typically 13-amp 3 pin square (British type). Payment Methods: Most establishments accept international credit cards, but rural shops may not. Traveler's checks from American Express, Thomas Cook, Visa, and MasterCard are widely accepted. Clothing Recommendations: Lightweight casual clothing is suitable year-round, with a jacket or sweater for cooler mornings and evenings. On safari, opt for neutral-colored attire. Essential items include a sunhat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Don't forget swimwear and binoculars. Note any dress codes for city restaurants and clubs.
