Frequently Asked Questions for Kid Travel in South Africa

Isn’t South Africa really poor and dirty? Why would my kids want to go there?

There are so many wilderness adventures to be seen, as well as incredible animals to get up close and personal with and so many different cities and towns to really discover. The experience will leave your kids wanting more!

When should I take my kids to South Africa?
You can of course take your kids to South Africa at any point during the year, but the best time to go is between February and May. This falls between late summer and early autumn when the temperatures aren’t quite as hot and the areas aren’t quite as busy. You will also find it rains heavily during the summer months and you will also avoid the peak school holiday South Africa season as well which can mean lots of delays and booked out places.
