Your family is in very good hands with Siyabona- “Hakuna matata”, as the saying goes. This carefully curated Sabi Sands Luxury Family Safari will be an absolute breeze. You could even bring the grandparents so that the whole family is together. All you will need to worry about is making sure the whole troop is packed up and ready to go and the camera is fully charged.

Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge ideally offers child-friendly facilities, as well as safe activities with their special tracker and ranger programme for kids up to 12 years. There is plenty to tire out those little legs and plenty to keep the imagination at full-throttle, while the adults squeeze in some much-needed relaxation time.

Day 1 : The Adventure Begins

Forget those long dusty drives to get to your accommodation. Today you and your family will get to soak up the views as you fly into Skukuza from Johannesburg. From there, it’s only a short private road transfer to Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge in Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve, where you will be spending the next 3 nights.

After you have all settled in, there will be enough time to experience an afternoon game drive, for kids under 12, it will be their first “mini” game drive. At Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge, you can choose between 2 accommodation options.

The luxury suite offers 1 bedroom with extra beds for the kids while the luxury villa is ideal for families wanting more space.

It features a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, second en-suite bedroom, a private pool, lounge and outdoor patio facing a waterhole. The best part? You will have access to your own pool and private safari vehicle and guide.

Day 2 - 3: Safari Lodge in the Sabi Sands

Did you know that measurements taken from a lion's paw print can help us guess how old it is and also if it is a male or female? Over the next two days as Sabi Sands Bush Lodge, your kids will be in excellent hands, as they engage in fun-filled activities while learning about the African bush too.

Depending on their age, they can take part in the Junior Tracker programme for (ages 4 - 8 years) or the Junior Rangers programme (ages 9 - 12 years).

While the kids are busy in the EleFun Centre with their tracking, map-reading, bushcraft, supervised walks and bushveld games, moms and dads can take part in their own bushwalks, game drives.

How about even just taking some time to vegetate by the pool, or at the spa? Kids over 12 can participate in game drives with parents while those over 16 years can go on the bush walks.

At night families can get together around the outdoor boma fire to roast marshmallows while listening to some enthralling African stories.

Day 4: Sabi Sands to Johannesburg

After the bags are all packed and a shared, hearty breakfast has been enjoyed, you and your family will sadly be making your way back to Skukuza so that you can catch your scheduled flight back to Johannesburg.

If you feel like you might prefer to get more out of your journey, this 4-day luxury family Sabi Sands safari can easily be joined with another fun-filled destination, such as Cape Town, or perhaps a more beachy adventure in Mozambique, which is very near to the Kruger National Park.
