Many Safari lodges now accept children under the age of 12 years old , taking family's travel requirements into consideration and creating a child friendly environment, ensuring the enjoyment of your African Safari for both adults and children alike. Many of these lodges offer delightful children programs and child game drives giving your children an ultimate adventure to share with their friends on their return back home. If Malaria areas, such as the Kruger, are an issue for family's with very young children, we recommend enjoying a Safari in one of the Malaria free Game Reserves situated in the Eastern Cape or Madikwe areas of South Africa.
