If its walking safari ?
getting proper walking safari shoes is important . If you’re walking in the bush, you need good closed-toe shoes, never flip flops or sandals. I hate to break it to you, but snakes, spiders, and scorpions are never far from your feet.
Keen hiking shoes works here. They are an older model of the Targhee II. They are breathable and they dry super quick. Keen hiking shoes have what they call KeenDry ( a waterproof breathable membrane). Not just a gimmick, it totally works and they are dry within a couple hours.
Shoes for Camping while on a Safari
If you prefer camping safari, you should pack a pair of flip flops to use while showering. Your feet will thank you.
You can also wear flip flops around camp, but always bear in mind that there might be lots of thorns around.
If you're not comfortable with flip flops then you can wear good quality sandals with a thick sole and with a bit more foot support. Thick soles are for the thorn issues and support for comfort. You can use them camping, around the lodge, or even on a light hike if you don’t want to take hiking shoes.
In summary:
- You’re most important shoe is an every day comfortable sandal.
- If you are going to do any nature walking at all then a closed-toed lightweight hiking shoe is a must have.
- If you can only take two pairs of shoes, wear these on the plane and pack your sandals.
- If you have a little extra room then throw in some light weight flip flops for around camp. Or go nuts and take a cute pair of dressier shoes for those nights out and dinners at the lodge.
