Africa is somewhere we know intimately well at Loxton Travel. Not from brochures or internet research, but from a lifetime of going back ✈️
Chanel grew up in Zimbabwe, and that upbringing shapes every safari she plans. The right camp for the right traveller. The right season. The guide worth requesting by name. The details that turn a good safari into one you spend years trying to describe to people who weren’t there 💭
If Africa has been on your mind, we’d love to help you plan it properly.
But first, save this post 📲
Everything you need to know before you pack for Africa is in here. Visa requirements for South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. Currency advice. The strict luggage limits on light aircraft. What to wear, what to leave at home, and the things most people only wish someone had told them before they left 🫱🏼🫲🏽
Screenshot the packing list slide. Send this to anyone you know heading to Africa. Come back to it when you’re getting ready to go
And when you’re ready to start planning your own trip, get in touch. Most of our best planned journeys began with a single message 💌
