But before you embark on your journey, you'll need to know what to wear. From khaki jackets to animal print accessories, there are endless options to help you look the part and make a bold statement. Get ready to dress for success and make your safari themed party a roaring success!

What You'll Learn

Khaki shorts and boots, animal print sundress, cargo pants and vest, safari hat and binoculars, jungle camo shirt, tribal print maxi skirt, neutral toned jumpsuit, strappy sandals and linen pants, bush khakis and belt.

When it comes to dressing for a safari themed party, there are a few key elements to keep in mind. You want to look comfortable and casual, while still invoking the adventurous spirit of a safari. One great outfit choice is khaki shorts and boots, a classic combination that is both practical and stylish.

Khaki shorts are a must-have for any safari themed party. Not only do they look great, but they are also incredibly comfortable and functional. The light color of khaki helps to reflect the sun's rays, keeping you cool and dry in hot weather. Additionally, the shorts allow for easy movement, making it easier to participate in any activities or games that may be part of the party.

Boots are another essential element of a safari-themed outfit. They are sturdy and supportive, making them the ideal choice for navigating uneven terrain or hiking through the jungle. Additionally, boots offer protection from bugs and other hazards you might encounter while on safari. Look for boots with a rugged sole and waterproof materials for the best performance.

When putting together your safari outfit, don't forget to accessorize! A wide-brimmed hat is not only fashionable, but it also provides protection from the sun's rays. Sunglasses are another must-have item, as they protect your eyes from the glare of the sun and make it easier to navigate through bright conditions.

Finally, consider adding a touch of animal print to your outfit to really drive home the safari theme. This could be in the form of a scarf, a belt, or even a watch band. Just be sure not to go overboard - a little goes a long way when it comes to animal prints.

Overall, khaki shorts and boots are an excellent choice for anyone attending a safari themed party. They strike the perfect balance between practicality and style, and will help you to feel comfortable and confident throughout the event. Just remember to accessorize wisely, and you're sure to have a great time!

If you're invited to a safari themed party, then you're in for a wild ride! Of course, one of the most exciting parts of any themed party is figuring out what to wear. For those who want to add a touch of jungle glamor to their look, an animal print sundress is a perfect choice. Not only do these dresses capture the essence of the theme, but they're also versatile enough to be worn in a variety of settings.

When selecting your animal print sundress, it's important to choose a style that's both comfortable and flattering. Look for a dress that's made from lightweight, breathable material such as cotton, linen, or silk. These materials will keep you cool in hot temperatures and are suited for a range of climates. A sundress with a relaxed, flowing fit is a great option, but you can also choose something more form-fitting if that's more your style.

As for the print on your sundress, you can go with a classic leopard or cheetah print, but there are also plenty of other options to choose from. For example, you might choose a zebra print if you're looking for something a little more unique, or a giraffe print if you'd like a lighter, more playful feel. Whatever you choose, make sure it's a print that you love and feel confident in.

When it comes to accessorizing your animal print sundress for the safari party, you might pair it with some brown or black strappy sandals or wedges for a comfortable yet stylish look. Add some chunky wooden bangles or statement earrings to complete the wild and natural feel. You could also add a belt to cinch in the waist and create a more defined silhouette.

So, if you want to look fierce and fabulous at your upcoming safari party, invest in a stunning animal print sundress. With the right dress and accessories, you're sure to stand out from the crowd and make everyone go wild!

Stylish Ways to Cover Your Shoulders with a Strapless Dress

Cargo pants are the quintessential safari attire. They're functional, comfortable and provide ample pockets for any tools or gear you may need. When choosing a pair of cargo pants, opt for earthy tones like khaki, olive or brown. Pair these with a neutral t-shirt or a button-up shirt to complete the look.

To really up your safari game, add a vest to the ensemble. A khaki or green vest, with lots of pockets, is the perfect accessory for the safari look. The vest not only adds style points, but it is also practical for carrying any additional items.

For footwear, choose a sturdy pair of hiking boots or sneakers. You'll need good support for walking through the savanna or jungle, and these types of shoes are durable and comfortable.

Accessories can enhance the safari look, so don't be afraid to incorporate them. A wide-brimmed hat will keep the sun out of your eyes and complete the safari ensemble. A pair of binoculars would also add to the authenticity and show that you're ready to spot some wildlife.

In summary, if you want to dress appropriately for a safari themed party, go for cargo pants, a vest, hiking boots, a wide-brimmed hat, and accessories that capture the essence of a safari adventure. Whether you're attending a party or heading out on a real safari, this attire is sure to make you comfortable, stylish, and ready for any environment. So, pack your bags and get ready to hit the savanna in style!

Style it up: Perfect Pairings for a Velvet Top

When it comes to a safari themed party, there are plenty of outfit options that can help you fit in with the theme. However, one of the most important accessories you can wear to complete your safari look is a safari hat and binoculars.

A safari hat is an essential item for any safari-themed party. It not only looks fashionable but also serves an important purpose. A hat can help protect your face and neck from the sun's harmful rays. Not to mention, it can help keep you cool under hot weather conditions.

In addition to a hat, binoculars are another essential accessory for a safari party. As you explore the safari landscape, you'll want to have a pair of binoculars to help you spot the various species that inhabit the area. Plus, binoculars can help you get a closer view of distant animals.

When it comes to choosing the right hat and binoculars for your safari look, there are plenty of styles to choose from. For instance, you can opt for a classic safari hat with a wide brim and a chin strap to keep it secure on your head. As for binoculars, a pair with a magnification of 8x or higher will enable you to see wildlife up close.

Lastly, don't forget to pair your safari hat and binoculars with other clothing items that are suitable for the theme. Neutral colors and comfortable clothing are always a safe bet. Some suggestions include khaki pants, cargo shorts, or a basic tee-shirt. You can also accessorize with leather boots or sandals to complete your look.

Overall, if you're invited to a safari-themed party, be sure to dress the part and wear a safari hat and binoculars to complete your outfit. Not only will you look the part but you'll also be able to explore the safari landscape just like a real safari explorer.

You can go for a khaki, brown, or green outfit for an authentic safari look. A pair of cargo pants, a safari vest, and a wide-brimmed hat can complete the safari-themed look.

Yes, you can wear animal prints, but it is best to keep it to one piece of clothing or accessory. For example, a leopard print scarf or shoes can give you a safari-inspired look without going overboard.

A Safari party is perfect on so many levels. For a start it is great for not only birthday’s, but also baby showers and christenings.

It also works as a great party theme for both boys and girls. You could say in a way that it is the perfect party theme, one which all party guests will have a great time.

Everyone will certainly have the time of their life at a Safari party. With it’s striking decor, it’s adorable characters and it’s capacity for wild adventures, this is a party that everyone is going to love.

How Do I Decorate For A Safari Party?

Decorating for a safari theme party is going to be a LOT of fun. There are a lot of safari party supplies that can be purchased, as well as using other items found in the dollar store.

Whilst there are some specific party ideas further down the post with decorating ideas, the simplest way to decorate the party space is to stick to the earthy colors. Think of brown, green, yellow, orange and white as a good starting point and it’s easy to build from there.

It is a good idea to create a party backdrop . This can easily be achieved using budget friendly plastic tablecloth’s in your chosen party colors.

Next create some tissue paper garlands to hang around the area and suddenly you already have the perfect jungle feel. Make some vines by twisting together brown craft paper. Add vine and palm leaves to them for extra effect.

If you have any stuffed safari animals, use them as decoration props. It is also a great idea to look out for them at second hand shops.

Add some animal cutouts, animal print balloons and even some inflatable animals for some extra wild touches to the jungle theme party.

Real Safari Party Ideas

Use these real Safari parties to give you an idea of how to put the party together. Each of these parties takes a slightly different spin on the Safari theme.

The great thing about a themed party is that no two parties are exactly the same!

This jungle Safari party is simply amazing. The party decor, the earthy color scheme, the funky cake and the simple yet delicious table display. It all works together perfectly.

Cheetah Party

Another great way to hold a Safari party is to focus on one aspect of Safari. In this instance it’s the cheetah.

The cheetah print everywhere looks awesome. It’s even included on the ties on the chairs. Having the cheetah print as the focal point ensures that everything blends together perfectly.

Madagascar Safari Party

For some amazing Safari party ideas, you can’t go past Madagascar. This is certainly a party that is deep in Safari.

The cupcake toppers are sensational and even the ‘dirt’ cups look delicious. Everything is matched perfectly with printable’s and the colors are bold and striking.

Venturing up to this party table, you are literally walking into the jungle.

Baby Shower Safari Party

A Safari party makes a gorgeous theme for a baby shower.

The cupcake tower with the cake on top is stunning and creates a fantastic table feature. The baby curled up on top of the cake is just adorable.

This is a fun and cheeky party, and would certainly be a lot of fun for a mum to be.

Pastel decoration might not instantly be the decor that comes to mind when you think of a Safari party, but this example goes to show that it can be done.

Everything looks like you would see it in a nursery, the baby spin on the party is simply delightful. The cupcake display has to be my favorite part of the table display.

Safari Party Food Ideas

There are so many fun themed treats that you can make for a Safari party.

Creating theme food adds to the fun and helps to create the jungle atmosphere. For simplicity, stick to finger foods.

Some easy Safari food ideas include:

• Delicious and also fun monkey pops . This is an easy recipe and the monkey heads are available as a free printable.
• Kids love jello and this is so easy to have available at the party. Stick to jello in safari colors where possible.
• Have a fruit station. Fruit will always be found on safari, so this is a great excuse to get some healthy food into the kids.
• It would also be fun to use some vegetables and turn them into animal faces. For example, use carrot sticks to create a lion’s face with drip bowls for eyes, cauliflower for the nose and slices of mushrooms for the mouth. Or perhaps slice a cucumber and lay it out as a snake.
• Obtain an animal cookie cutter of choice for some fun cookies

Fun Safari Games & Activites

To throw the most awesome Safari party, it’s important to have some games. Examples include:

• A spin on Simon Says. Instead of saying Simon says, you could say, “The jungle says to swing your arms like an elephant”.
• Safari animal scavenger hunt.
• Sleeping lions. Play some music and when the music stops, the kids fall to the ground and lay as still as they can.
• Jungle Animal Charades
• Pin the tail on a (Safari animal of choice)
• Have someone available for face painting an assortment of jungle animal face masks.
• Create a craft table where the kids can color in jungle animal masks.
• Make a pair of binoculars by taping two toilet rolls together and fixing some string to the ends so they can hang around the children’s necks.
• Create a photo booth with safari props and animal party hats.

Safari-Themed Birthday Party Favors

Kid love to explore their goodie bags end the end of a party. There are lots of party favors that you could include that match the theme of the party such as:

• Plastic little animals
• Animal stickers
• Tiger tails
• Animal tattoos
• Animal eye masks

A Safari party is a whole lot of fun for the entire family. The kids might like to dress up in their favorite Safari animal costume or as a Safari explorer to really feel like they are entering the jungle together.

With the striking party decor and some fun themed food and games, this party is going to be a roaring success.

Go wild with these 15 safari theme party ideas

July 29, 2023

Does your little explorer spend all their time slashing through the dense jungle in the backyard with their pretend machete? Or maybe their room looks like a wildlife refuge with all their ferocious stuffed safari animals. If either of those descriptions sounds like your child, then we’ve got the perfect birthday party theme for you.

With a safari theme birthday party , your mini adventurer is guaranteed to have a ferociously good time while also showing off their love for nature. Keep reading for more safari theme party ideas than there are zebras on the savannah.

Plan a journey to the wilderness… or to the backyard

You know that a safari theme birthday party would be perfect for your little animal lover—but what exactly does the party planning look like? There are a ton of exciting options to make this next birthday a special one, both at home or out in the wild. Here are some ideas to add a bit of adventure to your safari birthday party.

1. Visit a local zoo or wildlife center

Zookeepers actually make great party hosts, especially when they bring some of their furry (or scaled) friends for each guest to take a look at. Plus, they often have party rooms you can rent out where the explorers can enjoy safari snacks on-site.

2. Create a backyard safari

In many places, it’s possible to hire an exotic animal handler who will visit your home with their menagerie. Your little adventurer will never forget the birthday they hung out with a boa constrictor!

3. Plan a wild dress code

For your safari theme party idea, encourage guests to show up in animal masks, animal prints, or full-on costumes of their favorite beasts. 

Due to the *nature* of a safari theme birthday party, there’s a good chance that it includes some kind of outdoor element. But what if the weather isn’t cooperative? Hardy adventurers won’t let a little rain or snow stop them… but it might stop your birthday plans. Luckily, there are plenty of fun safari activities you can plan for indoors.

4. Put on a movie

There are so many fun animal movies to choose from. Might we suggest “Madagascar,” “The Lion King,” or “The Jungle Book”?

5. Play some games

Whether you’re playing Monkey in the Middle or Sleeping Lions , plan some fun kids’ birthday party games to have everyone feeling like a true party animal, indoors or out.

6. Create some safari crafts

With a few simple party supplies, you can set up a safari craft station where your young guests can make their own artistic safari animals.

Safari-themed party supplies are available at Paperless Post Party Shop .

Decorations for a wild safari party.

Whether you’re hosting at home or elsewhere, you’ll want the venue to give off serious jungle vibes for your safari-themed party. Seek out garlands and streamers that look like vines, and balloons in varying shades of greens and browns. Some other decoration options to consider include the following.

7. A fun garland to set the mood

Set the mood by inspiring guests to Party like an animal with this decorative garland , featuring an elephant wearing a party hat.

8. An animal-shaped pinata

Fill this cheeta party pinata from Paperless Post Party Shop with treats for the kids to enjoy.

9. Creature-shaped plates

From animal print plates to plates shaped like animals , themed plates help bring your safari theme to life.

10. Animal-inspired costumes

Get into the safari spirit with safari animal print party hats and lion masks .

11. Delightful safari-themed party favors

Thank your guests for a roarin’ good time by sending them home with safari print party bags filled with trinkets like temporary animal tattoos .

Feeding hungry safari explorers (aka partygoers)

Of course, a day spent exploring will leave your guests licking their chops and circling the birthday cake like it’s a water buffalo. So, what kind of food does one serve at a safari-themed birthday bash? Animals eat all kinds of things, but these explorers will probably have a taste for cakes and treats, above all else.

12. The birthday cake

Maybe it’s shaped like your child’s favorite jungle animal or decorated with a scene from the safari of their dreams. Also, some animal candles make the perfect topper. 

13. Cupcake decorating kit

For desserts that can double as an activity, have your guests decorate cupcakes with animal-themed toppers . 

14. Animal tail treats

We love this idea of decorating chocolate-covered pretzel rods to look like tiger tails!

15. Veggies… but shaped like a lion

For a healthy snack, you can make a safari-themed veggie tray by using a dip (like hummus or ranch) as a lion’s face and surrounding it with peppers and carrots to form a lion’s mane. 

Wording for an adventurous invite

Once you’ve picked out your favorite safari-themed invites , it’s time to invite your child’s fellow adventurers with the perfect birthday invitations . If you’re more of a Tarzan than a Jane and have trouble choosing the right words, consider the below examples for your kids’ birthday invitations to get those creative juices flowing. 

Welcome to the jungle!

The adventure begins at:

Get wild safari theme party.

We had a wild time at my kid’s combined birthday party. With a Safari theme party and an amazing animal show, the kids had a blast. And you can share in the fun because all the resources for this safari party are listed at the bottom.

Scroll down for tons of DIY safari decor and party ideas!

Easy Safari themed party decorations

Some stacked hula skirts from the dollar store worked fantastic for this safari backdrop.You could also stack these raffia table fringe skirts

I also got some animal print fabrics and draped it in front, some animal print lanterns and bandanas .

A big piece of zebra pattern burlap found at my local fabric store was perfect as a tablecloth.

I used all the printables from my Animal Safari printable set to make several banners.

These easy printable animal print lanterns with raffia fringes make for a quick and fun safari decoration.

I loved these animal print balloons so much I placed them all around. The kids had so much fun bringing them home too.

Here I tried to unsuccessfully hide the air conditioning unit with those balloons… hum … that’s when I wish I had invested in a screen.

I used a bunch of stuffed animals all over the tables. It’s amazing how many stuffed animals a kid can accumulate over the years!

I found these cool dessert plates, napkins and cups that so perfectly matched the theme HERE .

Safari themed party treats

Coming up with safari themed foods was a bit tough but then I stumbled on these fantastic hippos from Kinder ! A slam dunk!

We also had twigs (pretzels), wild tails (grape and strawberry skewers), cheetah puffs (cheese puffs) and of course animal crackers served with popcorn in individual treat boxes, as well as wrapped chocolate minis.

I renamed the lemonade Sahara Spring, wrapped the water bottles, and offered some more mature refreshments for the parents staying over in a cooler tagged “survival gear” 🙂

This year I saved a little money by making my own cake. I pouring over the internet for ways to make animal prints on frosting and was very pleased with the results. I explained how I made it in How to make and animal print safari cake .

I also crafted the festive cake topper by cutting small triangles out of the full sheets of the animal print pattern. I used the 2″ cupcake toppers to add the ages of the girls.

The entertainment

This year I bought the craft instead of making it. These How to make and animal print cake from Oriental Trading fit the bill nicely.

The main event was the animal show from Reptacular Animals . If you live in the Los Angeles area I would highly recommend them. They were wonderful! We had 15 mixed animals from snakes to chinchillas to scorpions. We moved some outdoor furniture in the shade of a tree and draped a canvas on the ground for the kids to sit on.

After sitting for the animal show, it was time for the kids to get some wiggles out and hit this giant giraffe piñata!

If you are lucky enough to live near a Mexican party store, most will make whatever shape piñata you’d like. They’re always over sized and cheaper than any small piñatas found at chain party stores.

Well fed (sugared up), educated, and exhausted, the kids left the party with one of these adorable stuffed animals . What fantastic memories!

How To Host a Wild and Fun Jungle Theme Party

If you’re a party animal with an urge to host a jungle theme party, we’re with you. Visions of palm fronds, exotic birds, and tropical flowers dance across our imaginations, inspiring party ideas for a host of different events.

Whether you’re planning a jungle-inspired or safari-themed birthday party, baby shower, graduation , or other fun event, this guide will help you set the scene. You’ll also get some digital invitation inspiration that will have your guests going wild with excitement.

3 Steps to Hosting a Jungle Theme Party 

There’s a wide variety of options for a jungle theme party. You can opt for bright hues or baby animals in soft pastels to suit a baby’s first birthday party or select more elegant prints and party decor for a teen’s sweet 16 . You can also modify the jungle theme to suit a graduation party by hosting a jungle luau to honor the journey into the “concrete jungle.” 

Whatever jungle or safari theme party you choose to host, here are some ideas ranging from animal-inspired decorations to tasty feasts you can serve up.

Go Wild With Decor

When it comes to the color scheme of a jungle theme party, animal print is king. Use animal motifs and colors like orange, green, and brown when decorating the event space. The jungle is also a bright and lively space, so hues like magenta and red can be peppered throughout the party decor — think orchids and hibiscus flowers that bloom in the jungle. 

Here are some great jungle decor items to consider for your upcoming bash.

• Balloon decorations: No event is complete (especially a safari theme birthday party) without party balloons! Look for animal balloons featuring tigers, elephants, monkeys, and other wild beasts. You can also opt for zebra stripe or animal print balloons. Display them around the event room, make a DIY balloon garland , and tie a few special latex balloons to the chair for the birthday boy or birthday girl.
• Safari animal stickers: If your jungle-themed party is a kid’s event, get some animal stickers they can use to decorate cards or stick on each other. Giraffes, zebras, lions, and crocodiles are all great choices. For an even wilder atmosphere, look for animal stickers in vibrant colors or metallic designs that shimmer and shine.
• Animal print tableware: Set the stage for a jungle-inspired meal with animal print tablecloths and animal table decorations. For easy clean-up and an easy design element, use paper plates, cups, and napkins featuring a safari theme. For a young child’s birthday party, consider plates featuring wild animal faces. For older kids or an adult safari party, look for jungle motifs like monstera or palm leaves and jungle animal prints, which can be more elegant.
• Confetti: Never mind the clean-up. There’s something about confetti that makes a party even more fun. Sprinkle animal print confetti on the table or hand out party favor bags or goodie bags with party poppers packed with confetti.
• Birthday banner or backdrop: If you’re hosting a jungle birthday party or baby shower, draw attention to the guest of honor with an animal-inspired backdrop. Hang an animal print on the wall, use wild animal wall stickers, or make a balloon arch with green, orange, and brown balloons. You can even find large safari wall stickers on Etsy and Amazon that the mother-to-be or birthday kiddo can repurpose in the nursery or bedroom.
• Photo Booth: Capture memories of the day and relive the fun of your jungle theme party with a photo booth. Set up a themed backdrop and have plenty of photo props such as animal cutouts, animal face masks, safari hats, and animal print glasses.
• Live animals: This may be over the top, but live animals are the ultimate VIPs when planning a safari zoo party. Some party planning companies offer exotic animals like camels for large events while others offer horse rides. You can even consider a virtual experience with companies like Dave’s Jungle , which offers virtual live animal and reptile shows. Alternatively, you can take the party to the zoo or a wildlife learning center where you can get up close and personal with incredible creatures.

Get Dressed Up in Costume

If you’re hosting an animal party, consider asking guests to don their wildest attire. Whether you’re going all-out with costumes or simply suggesting wild prints, dressing up is always a fun idea. You can also offer animal party hats to make dressing up easy.

You can find animal costumes in adult and kid sizes, including fleece options, which are great for those cold-climate celebrations. If you’re looking for something more elegant, ask guests to sport their best animal prints. From zebra high heeled shoes to leopard print shirts, there are great options for safari theme parties that are more upscale in nature. 

For the more laid-back Safari Steves and Sallys out there, khakis, linen pants, and bush jackets — basically the staple items for safari attire — are a surefire way to get in the spirit of the theme. 

Fun and Filling Food Ideas

The food you choose should match your jungle party theme. If you’re hosting a whimsical safari baby shower, delicate cupcakes with mint green frosting are a great choice. Don’t forget to add animal-themed cupcake toppers such as sweet blue elephants or pink lionesses for a festive look.

If you’re hosting a child’s birthday party, you can serve a larger meal to keep the ravenous wild animals content while playing with their friends. Get creative with a cheese and salami platter in the shape of a lion’s mane or cut up a sub sandwich and lay it out on the table like a snake. If you want to create a more substantial meal, grab a bag of zoo pasta with animal noodles. 

For easy snacking, set out bowls of pretzels — label them as jungle logs — and peanuts that you can call elephant snacks. A bowl of bananas can be presented as monkey treats and gummy snakes fit right in with the jungle theme.

Don’t forget to set up a spot where guests can quench their thirst. For an adult party, serve up jungle cocktails or jungle juice using ingredients like rum, lime juice, and pineapples. For kid parties, offer lemonade or other alcohol-free drinks in jungle-themed cups.

If you’re hosting a birthday party, put some thought into a safari birthday cake . You can order a sheet cake featuring various jungle animals or find a simple cupcake recipe and decorate it with animal crackers as cupcake cake toppers. If you want a more elegant cake topper, paint miniature animal figurines in non-toxic gold and place them on the top of the cupcakes.

A Modern Safari Themed Dinner, for the Ladies!

The Modern Safari Themed Party {a night in for a few special ladies} was designed by Chris Nease of Celebrations at Home . I love the unexpected pink zebra stripes used here to pull off a modern feel.

See that pink zebra tablecloth and backdrop? Chris used a patterned sheet- proof that inspiration can be found anywhere!

These ceramic animals add the perfect safari flair. They are simply spray painted white to match the modern decor. A cocktail table was set up with a mosquito netting hanging above, and lemonade/lemoncello cocktails were set inside of a small suitcase.

28 Safari Outfit Ideas

Colin Dempsey

Table of Contents

Whether you’re going to the Australian outback, the Sahara desert, or to your sister-in-law’s themed party, knowing a few solid safari outfit ideas can only benefit you.

So, in this article, I’m going to teach you how to put together some safari outfits—that way you’ll look less like a tourist and more like a tour guide.

What Makes Up A Safari Outfit?

Safari outfit ideas are largely based on the climate that you’ll be exploring. Since most safaris take place in extremely warm or humid locations, you’ll want to consider wearing khaki items .

That’s because the material doesn’t attract too much sunlight so it won’t make you overheat.

Other pieces you may want to include in your safari outfit ideas are:

• Pith helmets
• Safari boots
• Safari hats
• Bush jackets
• Khaki shorts

History Of Safaris

Before I tell give you more safari outfit ideas, let’s learn about the history of safaris. 

The first documented safari, or what we would call a safari, was in 1836 . William Cornwallis Harris, an English hunter, began the practice as a way to observe flora, fauna, and animals from a peaceful distance.

The goal was not to interact with the wildlife (shocking, given Harris’ hunting proficiency) but to study it.

Harris’ methodology involved getting up early, lots of movement throughout the day to see as many of the animals as possible, and a nightly dinner to review everything he and his fellow safari men saw that day.

This format is still used today but it’s far from the only one. For example, Newland & Tarlton Ltd. invented luxury tented safaris , which is another variation that’s safer for the participants while costing them much more.

What Are Some Popular Safari Outfit Ideas?

Safari outfit ideas tend to be pretty similar since they usually consist of a combination of athletic wear and relaxed-fitting khaki clothing.

You’ll often find that the outfits are pretty uniform when it comes to color because they’re built to repel sunlight . This is the case whether you’re looking for safari outfit men’s looks or safari outfit women’s styles.

My first safari outfit idea involves probably the darkest colors I’d recommend wearing if you’re going on an actual safari. However, if you want a safari-theme outfit for a party then this is a great look. 

It has everything you could want in a safari outfit—the baggy fits, earthy tones, and relaxed materials. However, the ensemble has a distinctive fashionista’s flair.

This is a much more conventional safari guide outfit that’d actually serve you well in the field. I adore the one-piece that retains its shape thanks to the belt. However, this look is all about the accessories.

Of course, you’ll want your accessories to be functional when you’re on a safari expedition because you don’t want to lug around unnecessary weight.

So keep that in mind when thinking about safari outfit ideas. This outfit shows how you can add a few personal touches to your fit without ruining your mobility.

The hat and sunglasses are both essential as you’ll be out in the sun for long periods of time. They’ll protect you from UV rays that could harm your skin and tire you out.

Yet it’s the bag that I’m most impressed by because it’s a stylish way to carry everything you need in a format that’s different than a backpack.

Fashion Tips To Avoid With Safari Outfits

Here are the things you’ll want to avoid when putting together your safari outfit ideas.

• Don’t wear accessories unless you need them to survive. Of course, I’m being a bit melodramatic, but safaris aren’t the place for heavy jewelry or dangly earrings.
• Stay away from black as it’ll attract too much sunlight and you’ll likely overheat .
• Don’t wear slip-on shoes , high heels, or other footwear that doesn’t fit most safari outfit ideas’ standard aesthetic.

Best Places To Buy Safari Outfits

Some of my favorite places to purchase safari outfit ideas include:

• Banana Republic
• Eddie Bauer

Final Thoughts

Assembling a few great safari outfit ideas can be fun once you learn the fundamentals . It’s all a matter of toying around with lighter colors and breathable textiles.

And with enough practice, you might end up looking like a grown-up Dora the Explorer, and I mean that as a compliment.

What to Wear On a Safari: Safari Outfit Ideas & Inspo

As I attempted to pack for my trip to Kenya a few years ago, I was STRESSED. I read every. single. article. available online, but I never really found one that gave specific enough suggestions for what to wear on safari—which is why, when I got back, I knew I obviously had to create my own guide with PLENTY of cute safari outfit ideas.

This post primarily focuses on what clothes to wear on safari for women, but I’ve also included a few photos of what my husband wore, just in case you need outfit ideas for men as well!

Below, I’ll give you specific examples about what clothes what to pack for a safari in the following categories: – jackets – pants – tops – footwear – accessories – insect repellent wipes – sunscreen – sunglasses – nighttime outfits – carry-on luggage and duffel bags – what to pack in the bag you take with you on your game drives

Also: if you haven’t read my secrets to surviving a long-haul flight and my suggestions for comfy travel outfits , I’d recommend checking it out before your trip!

Consider this the only guide you will ever need to pack for a safari. ENJOY!

Scroll to the bottom for safari outfit inspo based on the looks I wore on my own trip.

WHAT TO WEAR ON SAFARI:

Most people will tell you to avoid navy blue or black clothing on safari, since dark colors attract tsetse flies (an insect native to tropical Africa.)

You’re better off with neutrals, like green, khaki, white, or light blue—especially because it gets hot. I’d recommend cute khaki trousers , lightweight lounge pants , breathable joggers , light sweats , or even leggings (but remember to avoid black.)

Also remember you’ll be sitting in whatever you wear for hours on end, so make sure you’re comfortable in whatever you choose.

One thing I read over and over again was the importance of layering. And it’s true: in the mornings and after sun down, the temperatures get fairly chilly, and you’ll want to be bundled up—but during the day, it gets oppressively hot.

The best advice I can give you is to start with a base layer (like a t-shirt or tank top ), then add a second layer (like a button-up shirt or light sweater), and finally, top it with a jacket or puffer vest + scarf.

Madewell Denim Button-Up Shirt

Rails Gauze Button Down

Free People  Daydream Button Down

I also LOOOOVE jumpsuits and would have totally brought some on my own trip if I had thought of it. They’re just so easy to throw on and they’re super comfortable. Find a few good picks below!

Just stumbled upon this chic AF jumpsuit and I’m in LOVE!

Abercrombie & Fitch   Utility Jumpsuit

Monrow Crepe Jumpsuit

Treasure & Bond  Utility Jumpsuit

This part is pretty simple—get yourself a cute field jacket or puffer vest that you’ll actually wear again.

J.Crew  Quilted Field Jacket

J.Crew  Lightweight Jacket

Bernardo  Quilted Puffer Vest

J.Crew  Downtown Field Jacket

Here are similar options to what I wore, which you can click to shop:

This will depend on the type of safari you’re doing, but in my experience, hard core hiking boots (which I initially thought I needed) would have been totally unnecessary.

For the most part, you’ll be spending your game drives inside the vehicle and doing very little walking, so my advice is to wear whatever you’re most comfortable in.

Boots or high-top sneakers are great because they’ll cover your ankles, but I honestly saw one girl wearing sandals—and she was fine. (I wouldn’t wear sandals because of all the dirt/dust/insects, but you get the point.)

DUFFEL BAGS

Most safaris have strict weight restrictions on baggage because of the size of the plane you take into the desert. (More deets on that in my Safari 101 masterpost !) These duffels all fit way more than you’d expect and will meet the requirements.

WHAT TO WEAR AT NIGHT DURING SAFARI

This was one of the things I was most confused about. Do people dress up for dinner? Is it cold? What aesthetic should I be going for?

The answer: pretty much anything goes. Sanctuary Olonana , where I stayed, is considered on the “fancier” end, but there definitely wasn’t a dress code.

Some nights I wore a casual dress with a scarf, other nights I wore jeans and a blouse, and one night we decided to go straight to dinner from a drive, which meant I showed up in my safari clothes.

I wouldn’t buy anything special to wear at night—just work with what you have.

ACCESSORIES

Temperatures tend to fluctuate dramatically on safari, so layers—and scarves—are key.

Plus, if you find yourself engulfed in a dust storm, you’ll be grateful to have something to cover your face. I’d recommend something warm for the morning, and a lighter alternative during the day and at night.

I wore a heavier blanket scarf (similar to the below) over my shoulders in the mornings and late at night, and a lighter silk scarf by Cuyana wrapped around my neck during the day.

Treasure & Bond Knit Blanket Wrap 

Madewell  Bandana Scarf

This bandana scarf is IDEAL for safari — plus it’s under $40 and is a light color.

These deet wipes were a godsent. Super easy to toss into your bag, and unlike a large can of insect repellent, they barely took up any room.

Bonus: they come in a resealable packet. These are the exact ones I bought, and I only got bit once.

I wouldn’t have survived without this genius brush-on sunscreen , which I kept in my bag during game-drives and re-applied constantly.

Because most of your time is spent driving through dust and dirt, the idea of putting liquid sunscreen on felt kind of gross to me. This little brush was the perfection solution.

I’m a huge fan of Ray Ban aviators, but more recently I bought these $15 dupes on Amazon and I’ve been LIVING in them. If you’re the kind of person who constantly misplaces your sunglasses – I would highly, highly recommend.

MOISTURIZING SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER

After a few days of being in the desert, my hair literally felt like straw. Luckily I’m a PSYCHO and anticipated that the arid climate would require a super hydrating shampoo and conditioner, so I packed the travel-sized version of this super moisturizing Briogeo shampoo and conditioner.

My husband and I both wore our hats every single day. Having the sun beat down on you for hours can be a killer, plus, you KNOW how I feel about wrinkles. Don’t be a dummy. Bring a hat.

This one from Madewell is PERFECT. Had I seen it before my trip, it’s definitely what I would have bought.

PACKING CUBES

Set of 7 packing cube s, $21

Space is often limited on the small charter flights to the Masai Mara and other Kenya safari destinations, which means that every inch counts.

Packing cubes were a game changer for me. They not only keep your belongings neatly organized, but they also compress items to help maximize space. (Another one of my top space-saving travel hacks ? Use contact lens cases to store liquids like foundation and moisturizer. It frees up SO much room in your toiletry bag .)

Calpak and Stoney Clover both make great ones, or you can find them on places like Amazon (the ones I linked here are perfect and reasonably priced .)

WHAT TO BRING WITH YOU ON GAME DRIVES

• Blanket scarf
• Hairbrush (the wind really does a number on your hair & you obviously want to look FRESH for pics)
• Lipbalm/Chapstick
• External battery & charging cord
• Bottle of water
• Powder sunscreen (to reapply during the day)
• Fanny pack (perfect for storing your must-haves)
• Jacket (for early in the morning and after the sun went down)
• Hand sanitizer or wet wipes

How to Dress for a Safari Party

Instructions

Clothing Choosing the right clothes for a safari is always very difficult because white gets dirty too quickly, bright reds and oranges make you stick out and black is too hot. The clothes have to be very comfortable light and neutral-coloured. The pants should have several pockets, zipped and removable legs. Removable pants should allow you to feel cooler in the afternoon and you can zip them at night or in the morning to feel warm. In a safari party, dancing would be a lot easier and comfortable in shorts.

Hats and jackets A hat is absolutely necessary under an extremely sun. The hat should be such that it covers your head and face, while being able to dissipate heat well. You should select the hat according to your own preferences but make sure that it is a brimmed one made of thin and breathable material. It is recommended that the hat has a strap with it, which should help you keep it on your head even in strong winds. Jackets are also an essential part of safari wear. However, they should be lightweight, possessing zipped sleeves which can help you turn them into vests in hot weather.

Footwear The type and intensity of the safari party will have a huge impact on the choice of your footwear. Lightweight tennis shoes are considered to be perfect for safari trips or parties as they keep your feet comfortable and cool. However, if you plan on walking or hiking after the party, you should wear or keep light hiking shoes with you.
