Dressing for a riding holiday in Zambia is all about layers due to varying temperatures! Opt for light, cotton clothing in safari or neutral tones – ideal for hot sunny days and blending in with the environment. Bring warm clothes for May/June/July/August. Winter months are surprisingly chilly, particularly on those sunrise rides!
