What Not to Do on Safari
To ensure a safe, enjoyable, and responsible wildlife experience, please observe the following safari etiquette during your 4-Day Lewa Luxury Safari.
Do not feed the wildlife. Feeding animals changes their natural behavior and can put both wildlife and visitors at risk.
Do not leave the safari vehicle unless your guide gives permission or you are in a designated safe area.
Avoid making loud noises or playing music, as this may disturb wildlife and other guests.
Never litter. Help protect the conservancy by disposing of all waste responsibly.
Do not attempt to touch or approach wild animals. Always maintain a safe distance and follow your guide's instructions.
Avoid wearing bright-colored clothing, as neutral colors blend better with the environment and are less likely to disturb wildlife.
Do not use flash photography when photographing animals, especially at night or in low-light conditions.
Never pressure your guide to drive off-road where it is prohibited or to get too close to wildlife.
Do not smoke outside designated areas to reduce the risk of bush fires and protect the environment.
Keep your voice low during game drives to improve wildlife sightings and respect fellow travellers.
Avoid bringing plastic bags, as they are restricted in Kenya for environmental conservation.
Do not collect natural souvenirs such as feathers, bones, plants, rocks, or animal products from the conservancy.
Respect local communities and cultures by asking permission before taking photographs of people.
Follow all park and conservancy regulations to help protect wildlife and their natural habitats.
Listen to your safari guide at all times. Their experience and knowledge are essential for your safety and for ensuring the best possible safari experience.
Responsible tourism helps preserve Lewa Wildlife Conservancy for future generations while ensuring unforgettable wildlife encounters for every visitor.
