Luxury family safari: how to do it with children
Which countries and camps are best with kids, at what age and how to design a safe, comfortable family safari.
A well-designed family safari is one of the trips that most shapes children, and it can be comfortable and safe with the right choices.
The best destinations with kids
South Africa (private reserves next to Kruger such as Sabi Sands) is usually the best entry point: malaria-free in several areas, convenient flights, family-friendly lodges and guides used to children. Kenya and Tanzania work very well from a certain age, with camps that offer activities for little ones.
At what age and how
Many luxury lodges welcome children from age 6-8, and some offer private family villas with an exclusive guide and vehicle — key to adapting the pace of game drives to the kids. You can add educational experiences: tracking, junior ranger, community visits.
Design is everything
With children, the private vehicle, the choice of camp and the pace make the difference between an exhausting trip and a magical one. We make sure it's safe, comfortable and unforgettable for all ages.
