What to Bring

Food

Please remember that all AfriCamps locations are self-catering. If you are not ordering our meal baskets, please make sure you pack your meals, and everything needed to cook them. We provide salt and pepper, but any other spices, sauces and cooking oil must be packed.

Firewood

Due to the Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer (PSHB) Beetle threat, no firewood may be brought into the reserve. Safely sourced firewood can be purchased from the shop.

Swimming towels

AfriCamps provides towels, but guests are asked to please bring their own swimming towels for the swimming pool.        

Cooler box

Each tent has a bar fridge that should suffice for a weekend. If you will need more fridge space, it is advised to bring an extra cooler box or camp fridge to store your food and drinks, especially in the warmer months.

Other items for your packing list include:

  • Hairdryer
  • Camera
  • Binoculars
  • Cell phone charger
