Planning an African safari adventure does require some preparation, however. Here are some things that you should do to ensure that you’re ready before going.

Get Vaccinations

The tropical, foreign diseases which are present in most African countries are something that people should be vaccinated for before traveling. Check with your doctor and country recommendations, but you’ll want to at least get vaccinated against diseases like yellow fever. 

Research Guides

Safaris are always done with a guide or guide group in Africa, and before you spend thousands on making this journey, do your best to ensure that the people you’ll be going with know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about. Check reviews online thoroughly to go with the peace of mind that you’ll be led by experts.

Apply for Visas

Many popular safari destination countries require entry visas for tourists who will be traveling there. Check visa requirements for citizens of your country long before going, and be sure to apply for whatever sort of documentation you’ll need far in advance.

Despite declaring the pandemic, the World Health Organization doesn’t promote canceling all trips but following public health guidelines instead. It’s the individual countries who have started shutting down borders so you can’t go in our out. But if your destination is still safe, you probably can go there as you planned. Since this is different for different locations, you need to make a decision on your own. If you decide to go, make sure you’re aware of the latest updates and rules, or you may end up spending your vacation in quarantine.

However, a lot of young people forget there is one extra thing you need to purchase, especially for a long trip: travel insurance.

Most people don’t think about having travel insurance because you never think you’re going to get sick while you’re traveling. Or hurt. Or into any sort of accident. But, whether you’re traversing mountains or just hopping from city to city, it’s really important to get travel insurance so you know you can be safe while you travel.

Travel insurance ensures that if you need to see a doctor, go to the hospital, or take an ambulance, you don’t have to pay through the nose for it.

Some places like in northern Europe will already be cheap to see a doctor without insurance, sometimes as little as 20 dollars. However, it’s still a better idea to get some before you leave since it usually only comes out to be a few dollars a day. Especially for long trips, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
