Sensational Family Safari Holidays
by Experts from Botswana
A family safari to Botswana is one of the most rewarding types of holiday that one can ever imagine! Accommodation can either be in a tented camp which is set up just for your family, to a more luxurious permanent tented camp, to a luxurious lodge – whatever takes your fancy! With the very best guides imaginable, from the age of six years your children can:
- learn how to identify the signs of the bush – the tracks left by animals and they will learn which plants and trees are used by the local people to make toothbrushes, to cure certain ills etc as well as the folklore attached to them – in the Okavango Delta.
- See wonderful wildlife and learn all about them and their behaviour
- Learn about the night sky and how to read it; how to fish for bream and a host of other fascinating facts as well as bush survival skills!
- Visit the Kalahari Desert – and see meerkats at close quarters
- Spend time with the San or Bushmen people and learn about their culture in the Kalahari Desert
- Quad Bike across the salt pans of the Makgadikgadi
- Sleep out beneath the stars in the Kalahari Desert
- Horse Ride both in the desert and in the delta
- Go camping – with your own private guide and vehicle and have a private camp which is erected in the best areas and is closed to your family.
- Combine Botswana with Livingstone or Victoria Falls – which is simply full of activities, from canoeing to white water rafting, bunjee jumping, horse riding, elephant back riding, fishing etc.
- For older children, they can go on a mokoro safari which is a canoe that the rivermen use – camping overnight on an island.
- For those that want a beach experience afterwards, combine Mozambique with Botswana!
