You’ve travelled a lot in the early years of your life, and perhaps trekked back to a place that was exciting. However, since your children arrived, you’ve moved to Center-Parcs up to Mark Warner, and now you’re ready to go on.
A family trip really be a good idea? If so then why is it so great? Here are six great reasons to bring your family on an adventure trip.
1. Take in Africa’s most famous species up close
The BBC’s amazing Planet Earth on television is amazing, but it doesn’t even come even close to experiencing a lion’s pride big lions or a massive bull elephant in the real world. In a vehicle, that you can be close to the animals to the animals in complete safety even when the doors are fully open. A private car, for just you and your family is a way to enjoy complete freedom in terms of the length of time you stay in and what you are to the next time.
2. Learn about Africa’s vast dimensions and the vast the differences
Africa isn’t just one country comprising 54 nations, it’s the second-largest continent in the world. The weather is changing as you travel from north towards south or west east. If you fly from a city in the middle to a city in the south will take approximately the same amount of time when traveling to London towards Turkey.
A family trip, generally to one country or even two neighbors is still able to provide lots of variety in wildlife, landscapes activities, and even the cultural practices.
3. Learn about the diversity of African individuals, places and animals
Wildlife is the main draw however keep in mind that Africa is a diverse continent with a variety of cultural and landscapes too. Explore the wilderness and with family members in Botswana and you’ll be able to go on a journey through the arid landscape that is the Okavango Delta as well as visit the desert-like and breathtaking, Makgadikgadi pans. It’s an amazing contrast that offers many different experiences and activities.
The landscape in Kenya or Tanzania is as stunning as the wildlife. You’ve been able to experience the culture to Kenya and Tanzania’s Masai as well as the Samburu tribes, too. A lot of them now work in safari camps and be delighted to share stories about their youth and the traditions they were raised on.
Go with your family for a trip to South Africa and it won’t take long to realize the significance of what its ‘world in one country’ title is. Indian oceans and the Atlantic cities, deserts, wilderness mountains – the list is endless.
4. Create lasting memories
Turn off the internet and you’ll be going back to basics playing cards, playing board games and spending some quality time with your loved ones. In my mind forever is a day when I went fishing along together with Samburu guide Lucas as well as my then six-year-old son Leo. in the isolated Laikipia wilderness, along the banks of a gorgeous river, with a pint in the hand (mine and not his) watching his smile as he took his very first bite. It’s better than the Xbox every day.
5. Experience new things together
It’s fun to do something new as a family. If you’ve never stepped foot inside the safari tent before, you’re likely to receive an amazing surprise. Baths, beds that are comfortable and outdoor showers, even an in-ground pool in certain locations – will be a delight for both young and old. It’s not even a precursor towards the actual safari.
Other things to consider include including becoming involved in conservation initiatives such as visiting villages in the area or schools. These activities can expand the horizons of everyone.
6. Let everyone have a wonderful holiday
Select the most suitable lodges and camps, and you’ll find something for everyone when it comes to family safaris. Children of smaller ages can take short game drives to ensure that they don’t get bored of lengthy hours in a car. Find a campsite with an outdoor pool, and you’ll have a ideal place to spend the hottest portion in the afternoon.
Families with active children can walk or canoe. Those who are more curious can ride horses or even camels to explore the wild. Everything is covered even in the most remote camp sites – meaning there is no need to think about anything except being in awe of the surroundings, and obviously the wildlife.
