Erin, there are no words!! You are better than a travel show!! Your descriptions and pictures are truly amazing. Thank you so very much for taking us on this excursion with you. I felt like I was with you!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed watching along, Janet! Thanks so much for your support and sweet message. xo
Awe, thank you for mentioning the Mississippi Delta where I was born, raised, and graduated charm school❤thank you, Erin, for sharing your dream come to life😊
Thanks for sharing your family holiday with us!! I always wondered why they don’t jump up and eat u! Amazing! ❤
😅😅😅
Classiest safari EV-ER! This was so fun! I love that you take us on your trips!❤
As a Capetonian (living in Texas) I thoroughly enjoyed going on safari with you but more so
I felt truly “homesick”. It is such a magnificent city and I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you for visiting my continent ❤😊. I watched this video with so much nostalgia, excitement and emotions and I loved seeing home through your eyes. Africa is a beautiful continent and I am glad y’all had a great time there. Thank you Erin 🙏🏽🥹
I love to hear that, Caroline! Thanks SO much for watching! xo
Hi Erin, I am South African and I am delighted that you got to experience our beautiful country and the uniqueness of the African savannahs and sunsets. We once did a road trip to Botswana from Pretoria, which is very close to Johannesburg. We stayed (camped)in tents right in the bush with absolutely no barrier between us and the animals! One night we saw the silhouette of a hyena right outside our tent and then heard it drink water from a pot we cooked in. The humidity is much higher in the summer when it can get very hot in the bush. It sometimes feels that the air is so thick, it's like walking into a wall.❤
Wow, so glad I saw your post, It brings back many fantastic memories. It’s like a mini staycation. It’s been 10 years since we went and to this day it’s one of our favorite trips. There are no words to describe the feeling of being that close the these beautiful animals in their natural habitat. We stayed at two different lodges, loved them both. Ambiance and decor are difficult to capture in photos. And the food. Yum! Both lodges were on a river which provided endless stream of animals coming to quench their thirst, take a bath or just relax, My favorite lodge was a community of thatched roof huts built on stilts. They were connected to the main lodge with raised walkways so animals could freely roam below. Entire back of these huts was floor to ceiling glass overlooking the river. Our rooms had canopy bed, huge round tub with a view to die for and a private heated pool on our balcony. At one time our hut was surrounded by 50 plus elephants. Mamas with babies too. At Victoria Falls we did a sundowner river cruise, hiked along the falls (they provided ponchos) and a helicopter ride above the Falls. Wart hogs roaming around the Victoria Falls Hotel grounds left a lasting impression. Like you I LOVED them. While in Cape Town we stayed at Cape Grace Hotel, One of my favorite boutique hotels in the whole world. We went atop Table Mountain (twice because it was that awesome), took a tour of Robben Island Museum. Our tour guides were former Nelson Mandela cell mates. Unforgettable stories. Still get chills thinking about it. We also took a tour to the wine country which we enjoyed more than Napa (if that’s possible) last thing we did was visit Cape of Good Hope and saw a penguin colony along the way. While in Joberg we did a day trip to Soweto. Truly amazing. Our hotel in Joberg was adjacent to a shopping center so we did not venture out on the streets. My animal photos are as fantastic as yours but my wardrobe was a far cry from your beautiful outfits. Now I want to purchase some of your pieces and go back! Thank you so much for your post. We used Tauck Tours and highly recommend. (Small groups are best)
I'm so glad this video brings back such lovely memories for you! I just loved reading all about your own travels too... Such an amazing trip! I hope you do get to go back again someday too! Thanks for sharing. xo
Erin, I’m still thinking about Africa and your outfits 😋 I forgot to mention in my comment that prior to our trip I read a post how some traveling guest were leaving items like clothing/shoes behind for the hotel room service staff. Since Zimbabwe was towards the end of our trip and there is so much poverty there we did just that. I was born and raised in a poor village in a communist country so the idea touched my heart. I packed with that in mind so my clothes were not on the expensive side. So far I’ve purchased your BR scarf and the belt bag… I’ve been searching high and low for Page joggers and SE boots. I’ve found some just not in my size (yet) I love the look and versatility of the Veronica jacket and I may or may not have it in my cart before I retire tonight 🤭 I do have a question? In your videos you mention “links below” to items that you feature but I’m not able to see/find them. Any suggestions on how to get to them? Thanks again for sharing your fashion and travel tips.
Thanks for sharing that story! You can shop all of the links in the description box right below the video - just click the "Show More" to expand it. Or you can scroll to the top of the comments section and find all of the same links right there in the top, pinned comment that I've added! That one is usually easier to find! Let me know if you have any trouble. xo
Hi Erin,
I’m from Namibia - and I’ve just returned from a trip to Chobe and Victoria falls. Loved it so much! And I loved listening to your comments! You looked wonderful on your travels!
You should really try Namibia next time - it’s pristine, excellent infrastructure, real Africa and wonderful people!
You great am At for all of the details. I feel like I just went on Safari❤
LOVE this video . Heading to South Africa in October- GREAT hints. (3 weeks in a carry on bag!!! YES a challenge. I went to second hand store and purchased a special capsule wardrobe for trip. All neutral light colors.
Have an amazing time on your upcoming trip, Kelly! xo
We went last summer too… 3 weeks-all carry on… I even went so far as to cut the tags off all out clothing. Can’t wait to go again! Trip of a lifetime.
So timely! I'm actually headed to the same area on Saturday, and I've been stressing. This has been really helpful!
I'm so glad this was helpful as you finalize your trip preparations! You can also check out my packing list for the trip right here if that helps too! Have the BEST time on your trip, Jennifer! xo

Oh,, Erin, your emotions come through, so clearly in your descriptions on your videos… Such a wonderful excursion of a lifetime! Your skills with blending the videos of the animals was just divine! Such a bonding experience for the whole family! Thank you for sharing with us this beautiful time do nature in the wild animals! 💎🦋🇺🇸
Great memories thank you for sharing. I went to Zanzibar and I went for a safari blue to see the coral reef. My kids jumped in the ocean. I stayed in the fishing boat 😂😂😂😂.
Sounds AMAZING! I would have stayed on that fishing boat as well! xo
What an experience!
Thank you! It was magical, Patti! xo
I love every single outfit! It feels so modern yet so classic. And yet it also reminds me of the Banana Republic and J.Peterman styles of the 80s and 90s. What a fabulous trip!
Thanks so much for watching!! SO glad you enjoyed all of these looks! xo
Thank you for taking us on your vacation! What an amazing experience to give to your family!
Thank you so much for this information. It is exactly what I needed to know. And thank you for sharing your experience ❤
Loved the video. You were so detailed and pics were awesome.
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed watching. xo
Thanks Erin for sharing these so beautiful pictures!
Erin, though I thoroughly enjoy your videos, I don't usually comment and wanted to thank you especially for this fashion/travel video. A safari is on my bucket list, too. Seeing all your amazing photos and videos of the wildlife was awe inspiring! Your clothing choices were perfect, too (I immediately purchased the BR scarf). Thanks again.
Thanks so much for your sweet comment, Kathy! SO glad you enjoyed hearing all about the trip, and glad to share this scarf too!! xo
I went with my 80 year old mom on a safari trip about 7 years ago. It was on her bucket list but not mine. It was a life changing trip. I loved it more than I could have imagined. We went to Kenya and Tanzania and our trip followed the great migration route. We went with Road Scholar. My mom has travelled with them for almost 30 years and never had a bad trip. I've also been with my mom with Road Scholar to Morocco and Bulgaria. Great experiences
What a special trip for you and your mom! LOVE to hear how amazing it was for you both, Lauren! I hope this brings back lots of beautiful memories for you. xo
Thank you for sharing your experience, photos and videos. I can't imagine how exciting it must be. My heart was pumping just looking at your videos of the lions. I would definitely love to do a trip liked this but it's more in my dreams kind of thing...
But hearing about your experience was wonderful! 😊
Thanks so much for watching and following along for this journey! It was truly a dream come true for me and I'm so glad that you enjoyed hearing about it. xo
Thanks for sharing! My son is a missionary in Tanzania. I visit every couple of years and have gone on a safari 3 times. It’s breathtaking! Last October, we came upon a male and female lion laying under a tree. We stopped and they both got up and crossed the road. The female was leading and when she got to the other side, she circled around a couple of times and laid down. The male lion then came behind her and did his thing. 😍 Nothing like seeking animals in their own natural habitat. Also, for those on a budget, there are affordable options. This day was just a one day safari and it was incredible!
There's nothing like it... SO amazing! Thanks so much for watching and sharing a bit of your own experience too! xo
Great suggestions! This video brought back so many memories our our safari in 2022! We were so grateful for layers. I never realized how cold it was in some parts of Africa. One of our camps put fur lined hot water bottles in our bed after dinner. So cozy! We also could not believe how close the animals were to us. The lack of bugs surprised us too! I sent our clothes to have them professionally treated for mosquitoes. Not necessary at all!😅
So glad this brought back lovely memories for you! Thanks so much for watching, Tiffany! xo
Thanks Erin for sharing such an amazing trip!!

This is such a wealth of information. So incredible. Thank you 😊 so much for sharing Erin. Hugs 🤗, Amy
Thanks for watching, Amy!! xo
Wow what an awesome video! Thank you so much for sharing.
What a timely video for me! I'm leaving for Tanzania and Zanzibar on Tuesday. My girlfriend and I travel with Gate 1 Tours and always have fabulous experiences. This has been a bucket list trip for me since I was 22 years old and I'm now 71. I think I'm pretty set on the packing minus, packing too much. I have never traveled carry on only so this is going to be a real experience. I would love to take boots, but think I may need to stick with my Adidas and sandals. I have a down jacket I am thinking of leaving behind as well and just concentrate on layers. Loved your video and am ready to start packing!
Definitely a packing challenge! I'm so glad this was helpful as you start to pack for your bucket list trip!! Have the BEST time on your trip, Glenda! xo
This really did sound like it was an amazing vacation and how awesome is it for your family to be able to have all those experiences! :)
It was truly amazing... Thanks so much for watching, Colleen! xo
Loved loved loved this video. Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed watching, Amy! Thanks so much for your sweet comment. xo
What an enjoyable video! Thanks for sharing your family adventure with us!
Thanks so much for following along on this journey, Susan! xo
Erin, what a glorious trip you had, I enjoyed every single minute of your video. 🌻
This video of the Africa trip and your storytelling of it was amazing!
Thanks so much for watching, Laura! So glad you enjoyed this! xo
I went to S. Africa last year and everything you talked about was so similar to my experience. I also went to Botswana and Zimbabwe to Victoria Falls as well as Sabi Sands, and Cape Town/Stellenbosch! Surreal, profound and incredible life changing experience. I wore similar clothes, but didn't look as fashionable as you though, LOL. Thanks for the lengthy talk. Took me right back. And yes, the Safaris were by far the highlight of my trip. Banging around in a Safari jeep at 6:00am as the sun comes up, and again as the sun sets with a "sundowner" is a memory I cherish! I could do it again and again. Seeing the animals in their natural habitat was thrilling. It was always on my bucket list, and after postponing 2 years because of covid, it was worth the wait! I'm all about adventure travel now. I'd love to see Kenya.
So glad that you were able to go too, after postponing like we did! What a rollercoaster that is trying to plan and re-plan... So worth it though! Love to share and hear that this brings back great memories for you too, Elizabeth! xo
Love your necklace and your life perspective. So much inspiration for life and fashion on your channel! Thanks. 💕
Wow thank you so much for sharing the trip in addition to what you wore!! ❤❤❤
I'm so glad you enjoyed watching! Thank you for your sweet comment, Jaime! xo
Amazing experience, so happy this worked out for you and your family
It was a trip of a lifetime... Thank you so much for your sweet comment, and for following along on the journey too! xo
I loved your pictures and video of the safari and to see how much your kids have grown since you were in Spain over a year ago. That experience I am sure your kids will treasure all their lives.
I see them all the time and still can't believe how much they have grown... Thanks for watching! xo
Thanks for sharing your experience and the videos. It is on my list for the next couple of years, and your report made it much more easy to imagine what to expect, how to plan and what it could be for us too. thanks xx
I'm so glad this was helpful for you as you think about your own trip plans! Thanks for watching! xo
Wow, what a great experience! Such a detailed video with good info. Thanks Erin!
Thanks for watching and following along for the journey! xo
Not planning a trip but this was so much fun! I especially loved the fashion segment and the high quality animal pictures!❤
So glad to hear you enjoyed this! I've worn almost all of these outfits again since the trip too - they're not only for Africa! xo
So glad you got the chance to do this. Hugs.
It was amazing... Thanks so much for following along on the journey, Karen! xo
Thank you for this video. Very timely as we’re heading to a safari in Kenya and also Jo’burg and Cape Town. As usual you’ve given me some great tips. Thanks!
Have the BEST time, Felicia! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Amazing!
Thanks for watching, Karin! xo
For me too, part of the fun of international travel is planning what to wear and enjoying the outfits that I take
Wow! Wow! Wow! I just travel locally around my place but it's always nice to see things:)
Thank you so much for sharing! The trip you just had is what I have been saying I would like to do when I turn 50! It’s great getting the feedback and recommendations on your safari adventure. You and your family really were adventurous on this vacation!
I sure hope you get to make this happen for your 50th! What an amazing trip it was. xo
Hi Erin, it looks like you had a fabulous trip. Loved seeing all the pictures. Your wardrobe was definitely appropriate and fashionable as always.
Thanks for watching! So glad you enjoyed this. It was the trip of a lifetime for sure! xo
First impression -Your hair 😍
You are SO sweet! Thank you! xo
Oh wow…such a beautiful country. Thank u for bringing us thru your wonderful journey. The fact that u brilliantly execute a safari capsule wardrobe out from your little luggage, that alone is very challenging. You looked on point for every situations with all your outfits. Btw love your hair🌹
Always fashionable 😊
So glad you enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching! xo
Looks like an amazing experience! So refreshing after everyone just traveling to Italy, France and Greece (which are beautiful too)
This video was great to watch Erin. I was born in South Africa (Johannesburg) and we have been back a few times including to safari. This video made me want to take my kids!!
Hi Erin, I have to thank you for this amazing video. Your outfit ideas were so helpful when it came to deciding what to bring on this life changing trip AND what to expect as well. We had 40 degree weather with rain along with 104 weather and I was prepared. I shared your tips and video with my Mom and sister and they followed it as well. Some people on the trip that brought all the Safari suggested gear were sorry they did and loved our outfits. My sister and I had the small carry on hard bags and everybody else had enormous bags. We were on a tour that handles all the luggage and size didn’t matter ( we didn’t know that ahead of time).They were shocked we could fit everything we needed and looked great as well. I have worked in fashion my whole life so I do care what I look like but in the end it’s about the trip and adventure; just like you said. Not having the right clothes and not being comfortable is the last thing you need to worry about but you also want to look good in your photos. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I'm so glad you found this video helpful, and I'm so glad that you enjoyed your memorable trip!! xo
Great video! We did a very similiar trip last August. I feel like I relived the emotions with you. Seeing those animals, it is hard to explain, but I hear it in your words and see it in your body language. You just don't know the impact until you experience it first hand! It really is life changing. Thanks for sharing!
It's hard to put into words, really. I'm so glad this brought back those lovely memories for you too, Carla! This is such an amazing trip... xo
Awesome this is my most favorite video you have done 🎉😊
Fantastic. Thank you for sharing. Be well, Gloria
Awesome trip! I like the Good American jacket and the chocolate brown dress, and the cargo pants! ❤
I’m so happy you got to visit my continent! Love your channel, the last time I went on a safari was on a school trip when I was in grade 7 😄
😊
It was amazing! Thanks so much for watching, Kate! xo
Wow. In the back of my mind I’ve thought about going on safari, but this brought it to life like I’ve never experienced before. Thank you for your inspiration!
It was absolutely amazing... Hands down my favorite part of the trip! Thanks for watching! xo
🤗🐘💜🐗💛🦓🕊️ This must have been an amazing experience... No questions, but will happily watch anymore vlog footage you'd care to share 🌞
Whoa.. I just got emotional watching this. Nature is amazing isn’t it? Thanks for sharing such an in-depth review of your trip ❤️
It IS amazing. Absolutely breathtaking... Thanks so much for watching! xo
Africa! My birth land. Love the outfits and thanks for sharing.
Hi Erin, what a wonderful and amazing trip. It was definitely a trip of a lifetime…
Thanks so much for following along on this journey with me, Cathy! It was truly amazing... xo
Wow!!!
I loved this video
I want that brown belt bag though !!
And definitely just ordered the V beard safari jacket hope it fits !!!
Hope you love the jacket just as much as I do! Love the brown belt bag from Banana Republic, unfortunately it is sold out... here's their similar option! go.magik.ly/ml/1u2a6/
Hi Erin, thank you for this great video. Your outfits were thoughtfully chosen and looked very pretty, practical and really appropriate. Your emotions came through and it was instructive too. I love also that you show your children other continents, other lifestyles, other nations and other nature. That forms their comprehension of the world and teaches them to appreciate all forms of life from this early age on.
It's very important to Chris and I to be able to share these kind of experiences with our children. It's something I never could have dreamed of as a child, so that makes this all the more special to be able to share it with them. Thanks so much for watching! xo
I love all your tips for packing, Erin. I am in my 70s, but I still like to look stylish, and your choices are exactly what I would pick! I have a Rag & Bone olive green "safari: jacket that I bought at least 5 years ago from a Nordstrom anniversary sale. It is still my favorite one! As far as footwear, I love the Sam Edelman Chelsea boots and wore them all over Europe last October. they looked great with my jeans. cargo pants, trousers, and long skirts! Your SE choice for the safari was perfect, and if I was going someplace like that, I would definitely choose those😊
Erin darling! I have been watching your videos for several years now and have appreciated so much all of the content you have shared. Your kiddos are getting older and beautiful. I am very happy for you and your family! Keep doing what you are doing darling. Your faithful subscriber Ana from California 💋❤
Thanks so much for watching, Ana! I see the kids all the time and still can't believe how fast they are growing... So glad you enjoyed following along for this journey! xo
I'm so happy for you and it would be a dream come true for me1 Thanks for breaking it down and so less intimidating now. xoxo
Thanks so much for watching, Christine! SO glad you enjoyed this. xo
My step daughter’s mother and family are from Ghana. So awesome you got to make a trip to Africa. You looked super stylish too
Thank you for sharing all of this! I have watched and re-watched this video. We are booked for next May, and excitement is already mounting!
I bought the boots you wore, and am in the process of breaking them in. Odd but important question- what socks did you wear with them?
Thanks again!
L❤VE your video! Maybe do a part two? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching, Ramona! So glad you enjoyed this! You can read more here on the blog too | busbeestyle.com/africa-safari-packing-list/
Thank you so much for sharing!! I have only looked over to Africa from Spain, but never been there. Now I really want to go🤩😍Some day I hope it`s my turn🐘🐆❤
I hope you get to go, Elin! Thanks so much for watching! xo
I really enjoyed your video and especially your beautiful outfits! I'm a Capetonian and I am so glad you got to experience my city. I think one of the key bits of advice you gave was that special hiking shoes are not important because you are not allowed to leave the vehicle. My own experiences of the bush are so different as locals will often opt for the self drive option in one of the parks ... nobody really gets to see your outfit so you just live in t-shirts and shorts during Summer. If there is anyone watching this who wishes they could go on safari but don't have the budget for a lodge then I would say they can explore more budget friendly options as you can hire a car and drive yourself. you can even camp in certain parks 🙂 having said that, I think your advice to go to Botswana if you can is spot on. i have not been but it is on my bucket list!!!
You are brave!!
Thanks for sharing, I traveled to Kenya & felt safe. I did a Safari there & was life changing...can't go back to a Zoo either!
Brings back great memories of my trips to Africa. Glad you did more than just safari. The continent has so much more to offer than just animals.
So glad this brings back lovely memories for you! The whole trip was just amazing. Thanks for watching! xo
Thank you Erin it looks really amazing and makes me want to go! I live in Europe but you know, it is really expensive to go to South Africa on a safari even from Paris..but definitly something on my bucket list now 🙂
Definitely the trip of a lifetime! Thanks so much for watching, Clara. I'm so glad this inspired you to add to your own bucket list! xo
Hi Erin You do look the part love the style of outfits you are wearing and sounds like an overdue holiday it was worth it seems Love Donna xoxo and thank you for sharing
Again, thank you for your response....I'm so appreciative. On another note, you are amazing and inspire me....classy, honest, incredible style and just darling. I do no social media....and follow only 2 or 3 TH-camrs....you are the best and I own so much of what you've reccomended....I've purchased my whole wardrobe for Africa, based on all of your links.....don't need any nudging to purchase Veronica Beard....thank you of all you do :)
Thanks so much for your support! I hope you have an amazing trip!! xo

Here totally originally for the Erin and fashion and community vibes. Also struck me what a privilege all this is at the root and wondered about the language around that and what that might mean for the further reach of the channel. Broad, I know, and will receive prolly unintentional kickback but honestly just a thought as I continue to align with & prioritize advertising morals as you say you are.
You looked amazing and I am so pleased you had such a good time. I am South African and we had timeshare in a safari lodge and went with the kids every year. The best holidays of my life. Plus we went to Victoria falls and chose lodge and went on boats with hippos really near to us on the dam. I must admit that my outfits were not as snazzy as yours just whatever I had in my cupboard and a jacket similar to yours. So pleased you liked our country. I no longer live there but look back in my life in South Africa with pleasant memories
I'm so glad this brings back those lovely memories for you! This trip will always be at the top of my list of favorites... it was just amazing! Thanks so much for watching. xo
Penelope chilvers boots also remind me of your aesthetic on this trip!
❤❤❤Wow Erin, that was incredible! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😁 I loved your puffy hair in Africa, lol, back to 80’s 😂
My husband and I went to Tanzania last summer and I felt the same way about being on safari. It was incredible! I would have loved to have bought some of the clothes you packed. We saw the wildebeest migration in the Serengeti and sooo many elephants in Tanangire and so much more. I would love to do another one someday. This year I’m going to Tbilisi, Georgia. I agree that trying new places is truly wonderful!
Love all your videos . Thank you.
Amazing! LOVED reading about your own travels too, Suzanne. These experiences are breathtaking and unforgettable... Thanks for sharing! xo
