Of course! Take a look at our family safari in Botswana: A Family Affair. Botswana, Zambia & Zimbabwe offer wonderful safari experiences for families. In the bush camps and lodges the general minimum age for children is 12 years but many camps allow for children between 6 – 12 years with applicable conditions. Some camps accept younger children and most hotels accept children of all ages. It is important to note that even if a lodge accepts children, certain activities (particularly guided walks and mokoro excursions) may be restricted and will be at the discretion of their guide. Conditions such as private vehicles and limited activities may apply depending on the camp or lodge. Some properties will require that children under the age of 18 years share with an adult. More and more lodges are building family rooms but these are typically limited to one unit per property and early booking is essential. There might be discounts for children but these do not always apply depending on the lodge and the time of year. As a general rule, accommodations in Chobe (Botswana), Victoria Falls (both Zambian & Zimbabwean side) and Mozambique are more flexible regarding minimum ages of children. If you are travelling with children through South African or Botswana Borders, please be aware that you will be required to have certified copies of their unabridged birth certificates, and passports on hand. Please make sure you have the following documents prior to travel for children under 18 years of age: Travelling with both parents: • Parents must produce a certified unabridged birth certificate and a valid passport.
