Trip Gear and Clothing:

Binoculars are always recommended on all wildlife tours and this one is not an exception.

• Short and long sleeve shirts, we also recommend bringing long & short pants, all these items lightweight and comfortable
• Lightweight jacket, hopefully, synthetic material, and a heavier fleece for cool weather
