🧳101 BEST SAFARI TOUR ADVISE EVER ✈️
Dos:
Respect Wildlife: Maintain a safe distance from animals and avoid making sudden movements or loud noises. Observe from a distance to avoid disturbing their natural behavior.

Follow Guides' Instructions: If you're on a guided safari, listen carefully to the instructions given by your guide. They are knowledgeable about the wildlife and safety measures.

Stay Hydrated: Botswana can be hot, so it's crucial to stay hydrated. Carry sufficient water during your safari to prevent dehydration.

Pack Light: Traveling on safari often involves moving between different camps. Pack light to make transportation easier and more comfortable.

Use Neutral Colors: When out on a safari, wear neutral-colored clothing to blend in with the natural surroundings. This can help you get closer to wildlife without alarming them.

Don'ts:
Don't Feed Wildlife: Resist the temptation to feed animals. Human food can be harmful to them, and feeding disrupts their natural foraging behavior.

Avoid Standing in Vehicles: Standing in open vehicles can be dangerous, especially when close to wildlife. Always remain seated and follow your guide's instructions.

Don't Litter: Keep Botswana's pristine wilderness clean by avoiding littering. Dispose of trash properly and respect the environment.

Avoid Flash Photography📸: Flash photography can startle and distress animals. Refrain from using the flash, especially when taking pictures of wildlife.
