Africa

Africa with kids is the trip families come back changed by. A Serengeti sunrise, a Cape Town cable car ride, a felucca on the Nile, a Marrakech riad with a fountain in the courtyard — these are memories that anchor a childhood. The continent gets an unfair reputation for being "too much" with children; the truth is that the family-focused safari industry is world-class, cities like Cape Town and Marrakech are more walkable than most European capitals, and North Africa is a shorter flight from Europe than the Caribbean is from New York. Our Africa guides focus on what makes a family trip actually work: which safari camps welcome (and truly know how to entertain) children of specific ages, malaria-free options for younger kids, how to layer a beach week in Zanzibar or Mauritius after a bush week, and how to think about Egypt and Morocco as first-time family Africa trips.
