Make sure that you pay the amount of deposit that the company requires for complete confirmation cannot be assured without some cash deposit. With accommodation you can be sure that your safari will happen at the dates you have chosen. In between high Season and low season we have mid season from November to December 15th this is during the short rains.
Low season or off season starts in April until end of June each year. This is the Kenya winter time when the rains are received in the entire country. unfortunately this makes the roads in and out of the various parks impassable. This is when clients are advised to use local flights in the very disparately affected parks to connect their safari.

Passport
3-4 short sleeved shirts or T-shirts 1-2 pairs of trousers
Tracksuit pants, Personal toiletries and a towel
Light sweater

to the countries to which you intend to visit.
YELLOW FEVER
vaccination is compulsory for most African countries. We also recommend vaccinations for
typhoid, tetanus, hepatitis, meningitis and cholera. Malaria is endemic in most parts of Africa.
It is your responsibility to take anti-malaria tablets and other preventive measures. You should
consult your doctor before your departure. We advice the use of insect repellant containing
DEET and wearing long sleeved shirts and trousers at night.
TRAVEL INSUARANCE
Personal travel insurance is recommendable. This should include comprehensive medical
cover repatriation, personal effects and luggage, as well as cancellation and curtailment
insurance.
FLYING DOCTORS’ SERVICES
In many parts of Africa, access to adequate health care can mean long, torturous journeys by
road. The Flying Doctors’ services operated by AMREF not only provide outreach and emergency
care to local communities in remote regions; it also provides a medical air evacuation services
to travelers. With a temporary registration fee of € 25.00 [valid for a month from the time of

best hospitals in Nairobi. The fee however does not cover the hospital or medical fee.
