Safari in Turkey - What to Pack for your Safari?


Many travelers are uncertain what to bring on a safari in Turkey, especially when visiting a country that has a mixture of Islamic and European influences – situated in Eurasia along the Mediterranean coastline. Many are unsure whether Turkey is considered Middle Eastern or First World – or even what sort of items they may require for a safari in the country.

Wondering what to pack for your safari? The answer is simple – all you need to worry about it the basics. Clothes, comfortable shoes for walking, sandals, beach gear, scarves for women to wear when visiting mosques and other religious buildings, the all important sun protection, as well as key essentials such as camera, batteries, spare memory card and binoculars. Turkey is a modern country with modern cities that have a range of shops – Istanbul is especially good for purchasing any last-minute items you may require, so it is always good to stock up on items you may need when you arrive in the city.
