Running safaris across East Africa has taught me a lot about what travelers really need; knowledge I’ve used to source products that sell well on Amazon.
From practical gear like lightweight backpacks, binoculars, and travel first-aid kits, to items that enhance the safari experience like wildlife guides and photography accessories, understanding your customer is key. I always start by observing what travelers actually use and ask them what they wish they had brought along.
Another tip is to work with local suppliers. Many handcrafted items, safari hats, or eco-friendly travel products are unique to the region. Partnering with local artisans not only supports the community but also gives your Amazon store products that stand out.
Lastly, quality and authenticity matter. Safari travelers expect durable, reliable gear, so check products carefully before listing. High-quality products lead to great reviews, which drive more sales.
