Southern and Eastern Africa welcomes millions of international tourist’s year round and are safe destinations for travellers. It is wise to take standard security precautions, as you would whilst travelling anywhere in the world.

Most safaris take place in remote wilderness areas and game reserves, away from villages, towns, and cities. When in towns and cities, do not carry large amounts of cash in your pocket. Keep enough for the expenses of the day and place the rest in a safety deposit box at the hotel/lodge or money pouch under your shirt. We advise discretion with expensive cameras or jewellery. Take note of onlookers and keep your possessions in sight at all times to avoid opportunistic theft. It is best not to wonder streets by yourself after dark.

A few tips to consider when travelling include, making additional photocopies of your passport, airline tickets, drivers license and other important documents and keep them in a safe and separate spot. We advise that you leave your expensive jewellery at home.
