In the South Africa summer, lightweight clothing is the norm; in the winter a jacket, jumper or coat may be needed, particularly in the evenings. At game reserves, neutral colours, such as browns, beiges, khakis are preferred on game drives. Bright colours or white may disturb the animals. Pack a sweater, it can be chilly in the early morning and after dusk. Wear a hat to avoid sunstroke and don't forget the swimsuits for sitting around the pool during the day. Take sensible, well-worn walking shoes - there may be the opportunity to go on a walking safari.
