Packs & Travel Bags

The Black Hole Rolling Duffel by Patagonia meets the soft-sided packability requirements for charter flights on nearly all of our trips, but with the added benefit of wheels and a telescoping handle. It is also weather resistant for those rainy days, and has a zippered side pocket and a mesh pocket in the lid to keep things organized. And it’s not just good for you as a traveler–it’s also good for our planet. Patagonia kept 10 million plastic water bottles out of the waste stream by upcycling them into the materials for the durable Black Hole line of duffel bags. That’s what we call a win-win!

Because we value our travelers and want to be sure they’re outfitted with the very best gear for our adventures, we reserve certain items in our Gear Store exclusively for Nat Hab guests.

When your adventure requires a completely soft-sided duffel rather than a big suitcase for zipping through the airport or you prefer to tuck things away in your boat cabin, the Eagle Creek "No Matter What" Rolling Duffel makes it easy. Wheels and all fit into a stuff sack for compressed storage. The stuff sack also doubles as a place to pack wet shoes or gear while traveling. It's very stowable and will readily take you from the excitement of your Epic Botswana & Namibia Safari on to your extension to Cape Town.

The NHA Safari Duffel was specially designed for our travelers heading to areas with very tight luggage restrictions.  Take this classic bag with you from the deepest Kalahari to the beaches of Cape Town! Pairs up great with the Travel Luggage Cart if you like wheels in the airport.

Your everyday "must have" item for all of our adventures! This pack is extremely durable as well as water resistant, and even has a padded sleeve for a laptop. The “Airstripes” ventilation channels help keep your back cool while hiking through the hot jungles of Borneo or the canyons of Zion National Park. Combine it with our Essential NHA Packcover to keep everything inside dry on those rainy adventures. This one pack will take you from the airplane to the Serengeti Plains. Made by Deuter

Thank goodness for rain, or we wouldn’t have trees, flowers and, ummm, life! But rain can put a damper on your nature vacation so this special pack cover is here to ensure that at least your camera and all the goodies in your day pack stay good and dry. It fits great over our Nat Hab Travel Daypack. Made by Sea to Summit.

Get four essentials in one! Our Nat Hab Specialized Tropical Pack includes items that are perfect for any of our tropical adventures. Included are Black Diamond Trail Trekking Poles, Essential Travel Daypack Cover and a 13L Lightweight Dry Sack by Sea to Summit to keep everything dry in the rainforest.

Don’t you just hate when your underwear ends up in your tee shirt section and your turtleneck gets mixed into your socks pile? We do too...but we’ve got a solution: Eagle Creek Packing Cubes will keep all your ducks in a row (and your socks in a cube!). Mesh panels make it easy to see what's inside and keep air flowing so your clothes stay fresh. And the time you save by NOT searching for that last clean tee shirt can be spent searching for a resplendent quetzal.

Traveling with kids is a blast! Now they can really participate in the adventure with Nat Hab's Youth Expedition Kit. Designed especially for young travelers, 100% PET Recycled Polyester Youth Daypack (with plenty of pockets for rock collecting) comes with a Nat Hab Youth Stainless Steel Water Bottle and a Streamlight Enduro LED Headlamp.

Sometimes, travel is wet. You might get caught in a downpour in a Costa Rican rainforest, hit a wave in a Zodiac in Greenland, or simply not notice the tide coming in on the beach in Baja. When these circumstances arise, think about the peace of mind that will come from knowing your camera and other essentials are in one of these protective dry sacks made by Sea to Summit. Extremely lightweight, these are also practical travel items that can be used as laundry bags, or a place to pack your extra shoes to keep the rest of your clothes clean. This might be one of the most useful items you can bring along on your next adventure.
