Wether you’re doing self-drive or luxuriating in an all-inclusive lodge, Botswana remains one of the ultimate outdoor adventures for any South African family. 2. BOTSWANA Consider a family trip to Botswana as the ultimate outdoor classroom – even the teens aren’t likely to kick up a fuss about the lack of WiFi in the bush when there are so many animals to spot. Whether you’re silently gliding past elephants in dugout mokoro canoes in the Okavango Delta or camping out under the stars in Chobe, a family adventure to Botswana is one for the books. You’ll appreciate life at a slower pace, rising with the sun and going to bed to the lullaby of chirping crickets. Just a short flight from South Africa, this destination has outstanding travel infrastructure – but without the hoards of tourists you’ll find in many other wildlife destinations. TOP TIP: Always check with your Sure Travel consultant about the minimum ages of children when booking a family safari getaway – for safety reasons, some have age limits on game drives and/or bush walks.
