Mahali Mzuri Kids
Little Warriors
We love children at Mahali Mzuri, and our team are experts at keeping your little warriors entertained while you enjoy some rest and relaxation during your family vacation. We know every little warrior is different, so we do not operate a set kids' programme. Instead, we offer a fun range of activities tailored to each of our younger guests or groups.

On Game Drives
Kids must be six years old to join their parents on a game drive. When not on drives, at least one parent will need to stay at camp with their kid(s). While out in the bush, kids will need to be very quiet, so they don’t startle any wild animals.
When kids aged 6-12 are in a game viewing vehicle, either transiting to and from the airstrip or going on a game drive, they must sit in the back of the vehicle and observe all instructions from the Guide carefully. Continued participation in game drives will be at the sole discretion of the Guide based on his or her professional evaluation of the situation; game drives with kids present may also be shorter if the driver feels it to be necessary.

In The Camp
For safety reasons, children must be accompanied at all times around the camp, as it’s located in a wildlife area which is not fenced. Our Askari (security guards) give special attention to tents occupied by children during the night. Please remember it is not only the larger animals that can react aggressively; the smaller, less overtly threatening ones are just as likely to respond if they feel threatened, so we ask that children be kept within arm’s reach at all times.
Please note, we don’t have a lifeguard, so children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult at all times when in and around the pool.

Sweet Dreams
We have two tents which are able to accommodate children in a
separate enclosed sitting room. Children under the age of 12 are not permitted to sleep in a tent without parental supervision. Children between the ages of 12-15 are allowed to stay in their own tent, however, we strongly recommend that any child under the age of 15 share a tent with their parent.
The electricity is turned off at night, but if your child is afraid of the dar,k we can provide a battery operated night light.
The camp does not provide any babysitting services.

Keeping Busy
Our programmes are specially designed to educate kids about the ways of the African bush and to instil a love of the wilderness in them that will last a lifetime.
- We’ll test tracking skills around the camp with an organised treasure hunt.
- See what you can spy around the camp. We can arrange a short excursion to spot lizards, insects, and birds.
- In the evenings, the kids can settle in to watch The Lion King or Madagascar on DVD, and see if they can spot some of the characters’ friends from the game vehicles during the day
