Family safaris

We at Uyaphi.com have seen over the past 7 years a huge swing towards not only family orientated safaris but also accommodation that welcomes children of all ages. Long gone are those days when Africa was considered an adult destination due to misconceptions that Africa as a whole was not safe for children.

An African safari for the whole family offers a wonderful opportunity not only for the children but also for the adults to experience different cultures and wildlife. This goes a long way to nurturing a love and appreciation of nature as a whole in our children.

Malaria is a concern for many parents when the times comes for traveling in Africa with the little ones, fear not as we have a large portfolio of establishments that are not only child friendly but also malaria free. Remember one does not have to travel into deepest darkest Africa to experience all that the continent has to offer, South Africa and Namibia for example offer many 'Big 5' reserves that are malaria free.

We cater for children of all ages from the little ones and teenagers to those of us who are children at heart.

Africa is a safe, fun filled destination for family orientated holidays.
