Zambia Family Friendly Lodges

Zambia Family Friendly Lodges

Travelling to Zambia with the entire family in tow and finding it increasingly difficult to find safari lodges and camps instead of safari itineraries? Well, look no further than our selection below of what we regard as the best family-friendly options available when on safari in Zambia.

All of the establishments listed all have the following aspects in common, they offer family accommodation, suitable meals and menus for kids of all ages, and safari activities tailor-made to suit both adults and children alike. A few establishments even offer babysitting facilities and offer private vehicles should you wish for game drives with just your family.

As a suggestion, Zambia is more suitable for children over the age of eight, unless one is just looking at staying in the Livingstone/ Victoria Falls area. Please note that although the below lodges welcome children, a few will have a minimum age requirement, especially for wildlife activities.

Mix and match any of the lodges below and create a safari that the entire family will remember forever.

    Best Safari Destinations In Zambia
    People tend to forget about Zambia when organising their safari. They think in terms of their more famous regional neighbours: Botswana, South Africa and Kenya with their iconic destinations of the Okavango Delta, the Kruger and the Masai Mara. Even the Victoria Falls is seen purely as a Zimbabwean venue.
