Wardrobe Tips for Tanzania

In wildlife lodges and country hotels, the emphasis is on comfort and informality. For ladies, light, easy-to-wash, drip­dry blouses, skirts, dresses, light khaki trousers, and bush jackets go well. For evenings, light dresses or trouser suits are suitable. For men, drip­dry casual shirts, short khaki trousers, and bush jackets are ideal. Evening attire in towns can consist of light suits or long sleeved shirts with ties. Bright colours should be avoided while viewing wildlife. Visitors to Ngorongoro are advised to carry a pullover, as it can be chilly after sunset. A bush hat or a scarf for protection against the sun and dust is a must. It is very useful to carry a pair of sunglasses, insect repellent, suntan lotion, and a flashlight.
