Best Family Activities

At Timeless Africa Safaris, we will help you to plan your holiday around the energy levels and interest areas of your family. We have a diverse assortment of experiences that are all enriched by being shared:

Bush Safari

Bush Safari – nothing compares to a few unforgettable days at a luxury lodge in the wild, watching a herd of elephant at a waterhole, sundowners in the bush, lion call at night. These are the moments that your family will be talking about for many years to come. Children will be mesmerised by the wildlife and upon return to the lodge, can enjoy kid-friendly activities like a mini bush ranger course, baking with the lodge chefs, learning about the local culture or being taught to shoot and bow and arrow.
