How to Safari with Kids│Planning a Family Trip to Kruger National Park

Planning a family safari in Africa? In this video we take you along on our journey to Kruger National Park in South Africa, sharing what it’s really like to experience an African safari with kids. As a family living in Amsterdam, we were often asked by other parents and expat families how to plan a safari that is simple, safe and affordable with children. This video is both a guide and an immersive story, giving you the feeling of travelling with us as we explore the African bush together. We show you how we travelled to Kruger National Park, the easiest way to reach the park, and how to organise the logistics so a family safari feels manageable and stress-free. Places and travel featured in this video: ‪@city-lodge-hotels‬A convenient and affordable overnight stay at OR Tambo International airport, especially helpful when travelling with children. ‪@FlyAirlink‬We flew with Airlink to reach the Kruger region, which made the journey much easier for a family safari. ‪@sanparks‬ Kruger National Park is managed by South African National Parks.
