What to Pack for Rwanda

Generally, casual comfortable clothing is suitable throughout the year. The most practical items to pack for a trip to Rwanda are:

• blouses with long sleeves (even in summer, they will protect you from the sun and from mosquitoes)
• T-shirts
• shorts or a light skirt
• jeans or safari trousers for evenings and cooler days
• fleece or sweater for the higher altitudes
• comfortable walking shoes/hiking boots/waterproof sandals
• sunblock, sunglasses, hat, insect repellent - essentials!
• binoculars and a camera are a must
• tracksuit - good for sleeping in when in the mountains
• light, compact raincoat is vital for Rwanda's rainy climate
• swimsuit, as most hotels/lodges have swimming pools
• towel, torch and sleeping bag for camping safaris
