I know we are not supposed to wear black or blue on safari because it attracts tsetse flies. What about the non-safari days? Specifically, the 2 days (flying in one early just in case of problems) at the beginning in Arushka and the days at the end in Zanzibar? Is it ok to be wearing blue socks or a blue shirt those days?
I'm posting only because I didn't see this information prior to my tour. I was very excited for the snorkel tour (ocean safari) in the Indian Ocean.

It has three nights at the Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge and has dropped the two nights at Kirawira Tented Camp. The…
Do you need an Ethiopian Visa if you are just flying thru Ethiopia to Arusha Tanzania?
What route did most of you take to get to Tanzania? Did you go through Kenya? Do we need a special visa for Kenya? Does Tauck take care of all the details? Do you have to overnight it anywhere? Our travels will start in the U.S. Thanks!
Going on this trip in Aug 2024. Just booked and will be the first trip to Africa. Need advise as to vaccinations and if you have to show documentation for all vaccinations. Thanks for any and all advice.
