1. Dress In Neutral

Skip bright colours and noisy fabrics as animals notice movement and contrast easily. Choose neutral shades that help you blend into the surroundings.

2. Carry A Small Torch 

A handy light helps you walk safely without disturbing wildlife. Keep it dim and pointed downwards. Just observe and do not alarm nocturnal animals.

3. Avoid Strong Perfumes 

Animals have sharp senses. Strong scents can make them drive them away. Stick to unscented products before your safari to stay unnoticed in the wild.

4. Keep Your Camera Ready

Night safaris are fleeting moments. Prepare your camera with high ISO, low flash, and silent mode to capture shots quickly, accurately and responsibly.

5. Stay Silent And Patient

The quieter you are, the better your chances of witnessing rare nocturnal behaviour. Listen closely as the jungle speaks in rustles, growls, and distant calls.
