Family travel info

Many lodges and safari operators realise the need for children's entertainment - so that you can enjoy time-out on your holiday. These hosts recognise that children have shorter attention spans, and can only sit quietly for so long!

Child-minders come to your aid by taking special care to educate and entertain your children, ensuring that they enjoy the safari experience as much as you do. Specially trained guides may take "kids only" excursions into the bush, look after them during dinner, or accompany your family in a private safari vehicle.

It is important to remember that the bush is a dangerous place, and that your children remain your responsibility at all times - please educate them about appropriate behaviour and safety precautions in the bush, before arriving in Africa.
