TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS
 
 
Visa Information:
• Most visitors will need visas and should contact the nearest Zambian consulate for more
  information
• All travellers must have a valid passport
 

 
Health Requirements:
• All visitors must get anti-malaria medication - consult your pharmacist about the right kind. As the disease is transmitted via infected mosquitoes: prevent bites by using mosquito repelling lotions or stick, wearing long and wearing long-sleeved clothing, trousers and socks when outside at night (when they're most active) and sleeping under a bed net or in a room/tent with mosquito proofing (remember to keep the flaps zipped at all times.
 
• Immunisation against hepatitis A and B and tetanus is recommended
 
• Visitors from or passing through a cholera zone must be able to produce a valid certificate of immunisation. Air travellers who only pass through the airports of such a zone need not worry about this

Speak to your doctor before you travel - get accurate and current advice on inoculation requirements and any recently recognized medical precautions that may be necessary.
 

 
What to pack:
Casual, comfortable, lightweight clothing are best for travelling in Africa. Suggested items are:
• Light cotton tops and cotton trousers
• Khaki, brown, green and beige colours
• Shirts with long sleeves (even in summer; they will protect you from the sun and from
   mosquitoes)
• T-shirts
• Shorts or a light skirt
• Jeans or safari trousers for evenings and cooler days
• Sweater or fleece
• Heavy jacket for game drives (especially during the winter months)
• Socks
• Comfortable walking shoes/boots
• Sun block and sunglasses
• Hat
• Torch (when staying at bush camps)
• Swimsuit as many lodges have a pool
• Light, compact raincoat during the rainy months
 
Layers are most practical for the fluctuating day/night temperatures of Zambia.
