DESTINATIONS

EXPERIENCES

A family holiday to Africa offers a wonderful bonding experience, as you discover new adventures together, fun for both parents and children & teenagers

Africa has a lot to offer families, but it’s important to visit places that actively welcome children, rather than simply accept them. For interested children, who are old enough to understand what they see, Africa can be an amazing and inspiring place.

There are great beach destinations such as Mauritius and Kenya or classic family safari experiences in South Africa, Botswana, Tanzania and Kenya – you can even mix it up in an unbeatable Big 5 safari and beach holiday combination.

Range of activities, so kids don’t get bored

Special family rooms – kids are close to you and safe

No jet lag: Virtually no time difference – start enjoying your holiday from the moment you arrive.
Great staff & guides: Brilliant with kids – what could be more exciting than having a Masai warrior as your guide!
Reduced kids rates: Many places have special offers for kids, making family travel more affordable.
Go private all the way: Take a private safari house or beach house – perfect filled with 2 or 3 families. Atlernatively, opt for a private guided mobile safari
