What to Wear in Zanzibar?
There is no room for dress code flexibility because there is a sizable Muslim presence here and tourism is still quite new.
It's hot and muggy, so we advise bringing light, loose-fitting clothing made of natural materials like cotton, linen, silk, and bamboo that will keep you cool and are simple to wash and dry.
The tsetse flies are attracted to blue and black clothing, and their bite can cause African sleeping sickness.
Don't forget to bring insect and mosquito repellent as well. Your wrists and ankles are particularly prone to getting bitten, so you should wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts, especially in the evenings.
Wear plenty of high factor sunscreen (we adore the Riemann P20 range for 10 hour protection), sunglasses, and a sunhat at all times because the sun is very powerful and can blind individuals.
Be careful of the reflected sunshine off the water if you wade into the shallows to explore the reefs since you could be severely burned.
Petty crime and pickpockets can be an issue, much like in many other nations. Don't flaunt your cash or goods, and use common sense. You might want to think about wearing a money belt and leaving your pricey jewelry and other valuables at home.
It might be a good idea to include a packable, multipurpose travel jacket. Because they were created with travel in mind, the SCOTTeVEST line has a ton of storage pockets and has fantastic extra features like RFID security and Personal Area Network connectivity.
Try Hotter shoes for comfortable footwear; they're really light and comfortable in the heat (remember your feet may swell).
Take dive shoes to protect your feet from sea urchins and jellyfish on the beach.
Bring some lovely flat sandals; we recommend the Lindsay Phillips Switch Flops line, which features interchangeable shoe and flip-flop bases with snap-on embellishments so you can easily transition your outfit from day to night while still traveling light.
Only approximately half of those who climb Kilimanjaro reach the summit. Don't be deterred by that! There are operators who genuinely claim to have client success rates of 80% to 90%. (Okay, some people might exaggerate a little, but with the appropriate preparation, you can attack Kili with a success rate of greater than 90%.)
Altitude sickness is almost often the cause of unsuccessful summit efforts. Learn how to avoid altitude sickness while climbing Kilimanjaro.
Mt. Kilimanjaro summit success is not determined by chance, age, prior fitness level, or experience. Everything depends on you. You must be prepared to commit the time and energy necessary for study and money it take.
