How do you go to the bathroom on safari?

Toilet Stops on Safari This is one of the most common safari questions that we receive. Going to the bathroom while on safari is a little different from going at home. Actually, it's a lot different. Park entrances, picnic areas and lodges usually have bathrooms but on game drives and walks, you 'go' in the bush.

What NOT to Wear on Safari. Dark colours attract Tsetse flies, so stay away from dark blue or black clothing – they have a painful bite! Now that you know what to wear, make sure you know how to pack. Most safari operators will ask that you only bring one suitcase, one overnight duffle bag, and one day pack.
