There are certain countries in the world that, as parents, we simply won’t dare to visit with our kids. They are simply not child-friendly.
Fortunately, Africa is the ‘Fun Aunt’ when it comes to family-friendly activities, so rest assured: Mum, Dad & the little ones will have a blast!
Africa offers you the chance to spot a lion in the wild, ride on the back of an elephant, zipline through a forest, quad bike in the desert & go on treasure hunt adventures. If you can think of it, you’ll probably be able to do it: helicopter flights, hot air balloon safaris, sunset boat cruises, snorkelling, stand-up paddleboarding, scuba diving, canoe safaris, guided walks, stargazing….the list is endless. There is also bungee jumping, animal encounters, treehouse sleep-outs & Kids Clubs.
Since each lodge, camp or resort offers its own list of exciting activities, why not browse through a few of them & see for yourself? Or – even better – ask one of our African Safari Experts to help you plan your dream holiday. That’s why we are here!
We are happy to custom design a holiday that will suit your family’s needs & requirements, so send us an enquiry & we’ll get back to you with some exciting suggestions.
Whatever your family wants to do, we can probably make it happen!
Because it is challenging to put together a list of all the activities Africa has to offer, we thought we’ll direct you to the very beginning.
What kind of holiday will be ideal for your family? A safari? An island getaway? Or a city break? (Or all of the above?)
1. Safaris
Perhaps everyone on Planet Earth has dreamed of going on safari to Africa! The word safari means “journey” & visiting the real Africa is a unique experience. Getting up close & personal with some of the world’s most impressive & endangered animals, sleeping in luxury tents & learning more about the fascinating African culture is what a safari holiday is all about!
2. Islands
Life is busy. So, let’s be honest – all of us deserve some pampering every now & again. For some – pampering means strolling on white, sandy beaches with crystal clear water, while others enjoy eating fresh seafood or sipping on a cocktail while watching the sunset. There are those who prefer lying in a hammock or getting a relaxing massage while others want to dive, snorkel & explore the island through adventure activities. Whichever way you choose to relax, an island will get you there!
3. Cities
While many people love to get away from the hustle & bustle of city life while on holiday, they often realize that visiting a city in another part of the world can be just as relaxing as a safari or a beach holiday. You don’t have to worry about meals, because everything is available around the clock – from high-end restaurants & cafes to cocktail bars & markets. Besides, you get to explore, see new places, experience new cultures, indulge in adventure activities & also tick off your bucket list.
