Carry binoculars and a zoom lens
A 8–10x binocular and 200–400mm camera lens will make distant lion and elephant sightings worthwhile.
Hydrate and layer up for dawn drives
Early starts are cold; pack insulated layers and a refillable water bottle to stay warm and hydrated.
Respect vehicle boundaries
Stay inside the vehicle unless your guide says otherwise; animals can be unpredictable, especially at close range.

Use DEET-based repellent and sleep with a mosquito net where provided; malaria prophylaxis advice from a clinic is recommended.
