I once did a three week trip to Africa that involved a light aircraft flight into the Okavango Delta in Botswana. We were allowed one small backpack and a small non-rigid holdall that they supplied prior to the trip. So okay, two bags, not one, but still a significant limit given that I wanted to do some serious big-lens wildlife photography. I managed quite well although I had one day of wet very feet when I flooded my only pair of boots. I also grew a beard so that I could leave shaving kit behind.
