Where Should I Take My Young Family on Safari?

Planning a family safari in Africa can be a big task; with lots of countries and places to stay to choose from, it can be quite daunting. Where should you choose? South Africa and Kenya safari holidays are both excellent choices for families with younger children. In South Africa you will find malaria free reserves, perfect if any family member is unable to take malaria medication. Many of the lodges here blend luxury with a really family friendly atmosphere. Your family have your own specially equipped private vehicle, guide and tracker to explore the bush with you. Wildlife populations are excellent and so your game viewing will be superb and a private vehicle means you’ll have lots of flexibility whilst out on game drives. Back at your lodge the specially trained staff have a whole host of different activities

Kenya’s camps and lodges are also very family orientated with all family friendly features of the South African accommodation mentioned above. They often also incorporate cultural experiences too. Many work together with local tribes meaning you can go out to visit local villages and schools, meet local people and find out more about how daily life works in rural Africa. Children can even spend time with real Maasai warriors learning the secret skills of bush craft from how to track animals and make bows and arrows to how to use plants as medicine.

If you’re looking for a really exclusive experience, most camps and lodges have dedicated family cottages or houses. These will have multiple bedrooms with en-suites, living spaces, private decks and pools and will often come with their own private team of staff to ensure your every need is met during your safari holiday.
