Preparing For Your Safari or Adventure Travel Vacation
At Bushtracks, we believe that being prepared for your adventure vacation or safari trip makes a world of difference in your ability to savor your adventure experience - from start to finish - and beyond.
Our experienced Bushtracks team knows just what kind of information you’ll find most valuable in your final preparations for the exciting adventure which lies ahead. We’ll include much of this in your Bushtracts Expedition Planner and Preparation Package, which will be sent to you before your departure date. And our knowledgeable staff are always available to answer any additional questions you may have.
In your Prep Package, you’ll receive:
- A detailed trip itinerary and "typical day on safari" overview. Learn what a “typical day” might look like, even though we all know each day holds a new adventure.
- Tips about local etiquette and customs. As a guest in any country it is best to be aware of local customs and expected behavior. You’ll be privy to critical insights into tactful behavior and overall cultural sensitivities.
- Health and travel insurance information. Bushtracks Expeditions automatically covers you with International Medical Evacuation Insurance and Accident/Sickness Medical Coverage. We’ll also send you information on supplemental insurance and a listing of immunization requirements.
- Travel tips. Keeping you safe and healthy is our number one priority. We’ll help you determine food and water safety, how to avoid sun over-exposure, clothing and packing lists, tips for avoiding motion sickness, local currency exchange suggestions and much more.
- Reading lists. To help you prepare for this expedition, we’ll send you specially selected field guides and a comprehensive reading list.
- Documents. Passport requirements and visa kits with full instructions.
- Voucher wallet. Just before departure, you will receive an attractive voucher wallet holding all relevant air tickets and travel vouchers to submit to ground operators for prepaid flights, tours and accommodations.
- Contact information. An extensive list of contact information so those at home can be informed on how to reach you.
