Safari Clothing For Women and design:

Wearing second-hand clothes from the US doesn’t stop them from retaining their outlook beautiful and presentable. During a safari in Rwanda, a woman tourist is recommended to put on clothes which cover-up all her thighs as it is not culturally good to put on short clothes in public places. A number of the clothes which are culturally recognized well within the county consist of jeans, Khaki trousers, skirts as well as dresses. Always endeavor to be on the traditional side when selecting what to wear in Rwanda

During a safari, visitors are recommended to prevent wearing any gold jewelry, diamond rings, plus necklaces as well as other related belongings in public. This is to prevent luring opportunists while on your Rwanda Safari.

When attempting to get into some buildings such as supermarkets, you may be instructed to offer your purse for examining and don’t hesitate to abide.

Always carry with a copy of your original passport rather than the original due to the lengthy process involves when replacing it. Keep your originals in a secure place where it’s impossible to easily obtain access to. This is applicable to all the other travel and identification documents as well as credit cards.

Visitors can choose to take a walk within Kigali during the day. But, it isn’t recommended to walk during the night and if you should, move with someone, if possible a Rwandan. When walking, remain on the main road and keep away from isolated places such as slums.

Nights are usually safe for ladies to even go dancing. However, go with somebody to remain on a safer side. A Rwandese friend can do you well through the entire night.
