Make your family safari memorable
A family safari offers an opportunity to discover wildlife, explore new landscapes and learn about nature together. The most enjoyable trips balance exciting activities with enough time to rest and recharge.
Consider the ages, interests and comfort needs of everyone travelling before selecting destinations, accommodation and daily activities.
Choose family-friendly destinations
The Maasai Mara, Amboseli and selected other parks can be excellent options for families, depending on travel time, accommodation policies and the activities available.
When planning a multi-park itinerary, consider road distances and transfer times. Spending longer in fewer destinations may be more comfortable than moving between camps every day.
Select suitable accommodation
Look for properties offering appropriate family rooms, connecting rooms or family tents, depending on your group size and preferences.
Check age restrictions for game drives, swimming pools, walking activities and other facilities. Confirm child policies directly with the accommodation provider before booking.
Keep children engaged
Wildlife spotting, learning animal tracks, birdwatching and guided nature activities can make a safari educational as well as entertaining.
Plan game drives around your family’s needs, bring snacks and entertainment for longer transfers, and allow time for relaxation between activities.
Prepare for a smooth family adventure
Pack suitable clothing, sun protection, insect repellent, essential personal medication and any items younger travellers may need during the journey.
