We've crafted this guide to help you pack thoughtfully for an unforgettable safari experience in Manas National Park.

Safari Clothing
The secret to comfort in the jungle is choosing the right colors and fabrics. Stick to earth tones - khaki, olive, brown, and beige. These natural shades help you blend seamlessly with the forest environment and ensure wildlife remains undisturbed. Bright and vibrant colors should be avoided as they can startle animals and attract unwanted insects.

For your safari drives, pack:

Long-sleeved cotton shirts to protect from sun and vegetation

Full-length trousers in breathable fabrics

A wide-brimmed hat or safari cap

Comfortable walking shoes with good grip

A light jacket or fleece for misty mornings

Seasonal Considerations:
Winter (November to February): Early mornings can be surprisingly cold, dropping to 5-8°C. The magical mist that enhances wildlife viewing also brings a chill. Its better to put on Warm fleece or jacket, Gloves and warm socks, A scarf or muffler

 

Summer (March to May): As temperatures rise, animals gather at water sources, creating excellent viewing opportunities. Light, loose cotton clothing is recommended.
 

Monsoon (June to September): While the park closes, our resort remains open for those seeking the dramatic rain-soaked jungle. It is recommended to pack Quick-dry clothing, Quality rain jacket & Waterproof bags for electronics.
