Question:

What equipment should I bring on my wildlife safari tour?

Safari Equipment

Take along binoculars on your wildlife adventure you will never be disappointed. In fact, make sure that each person in your safari takes along his or her own binoculars.

As for cameras, it is far better to take along a compact, digital, transportable camera than relying on a camera with film. A good pair of binoculars and cameras with a good telephoto lens will reduce the temptation to leave the vehicle to get a closer look at the wildlife.
