Our family-friendly accommodation in South Africa

The places where you lay your head at night are just as vital to your adventure as the exciting sights you explore during the day. We know that finding a place that embodies the local charm is essential, whether it’s a quaint boutique hotel or a luxurious tent beside the river. That’s why we choose to collaborate with a variety of small, locally-owned accommodations rather than chain hotels. These unique spots offer plenty of character and help create unforgettable experiences for you and your family.

Our team of travel specialists is enthusiastic about everything South Africa has to offer, from its breathtaking beaches and expansive savannahs to majestic mountains and famous wildlife reserves. Families will find vibrant cities, a rich cultural heritage, and some of the best cuisine and wines in Africa! Each specialist has personally explored the Rainbow Nation, equipping them to provide expert recommendations on the best family-friendly places to visit and when to go, along with valuable tips to make your family trip memorable.

Having savoured local dishes, hiked iconic trails, and taken scenic drives, our specialists have experienced the thrill of safaris in the country’s acclaimed game reserves.
