South Africa Family Safari

Overview

There is nothing more exciting than an African safari, but even more so when shared by a family. Ideally suited for families, this safari offers outstanding opportunities to see animals, learn the history of South Africa and see the sights of Cape Town. Starting in Hazyview with a guided tour of the Panorama route and a chance to experience many activities, this safari continues onto Manyeleti Game Reserve which is a private reserve that borders the famous Kruger National Park. This is an excellent area to see lion, leopard, elephant, cheetah, giraffe as well as all the plains game and birds.
