Karl Patel provided excellent customer service throughout our journey.
I will recommend DialAFlight any day. Ryan is really fantastic. Gets me the best possible deals, is efficient and most polite
Ralph and his colleagues were amazing in getting the booking and the deal I wanted.
If anything had gone wrong, which it didn't, I felt that you would be there to help put it right. Thanks. The phone call before the flight was a nice surprise and gave confidence.
I have been working with Karl Patel every year since 2015 and once again I was super happy with my holiday. He goes above and beyond which is always appreciated
Jim was really helpful in all aspects from discussing the plans, making minor changes, and supporting when flights delayed. I will definitely recommend DialAFlight, especially to anyone considering a big trip.
Always a pleasure booking with DialAFlight. Good people providing confidence for the trip being planned

Donovan was fantastic, all his help was very much appreciated. We had a wonderful trip!
1. Mix it up
Safaris work well with kids of all ages, but (especially without a smartphone or a tablet) they can get bored rather quickly these days. So vary up your trip with walks, kids’ activities and even horse rides in between game drives to keep each day feeling new. Poo tracking tends to be a popular choice with the little ones too.
2. Hit the beach
Mix things up even more by adding on a beach trip to your safari for the perfect accompaniment to what can be a busy schedule. Completely unwind and forget about itineraries for a few days to round off your trip somewhere kids can play and parents can relax.
3. Don’t be afraid to pay a little extra
We all like to save money where possible, but some areas of a safari experience are really worth paying that little bit more for. Your guides and vehicles for example, will make or break the highlight of your holiday and a private vehicle will ensure a more comfortable ride along the way.
4. Choose your accommodation wisely
There are many factors that come into play when choosing your camp or lodge, few more important than how suitable they are for kids. For instance, different camps offer different levels of discount for kids, making some of the seemingly more expensive camps actually cheaper for families. It’s also worth considering if you would require a larger family tent, or if you’d prefer a few separate ones.
5. There’s more to it than the Big Five
Plenty of safari-goers end up obsessing over lions and leopards, when there’s so much to enjoy and to learn too! Your guide can point out smaller creatures, plants and insects that can be just as interesting for kids and will help to stave off boredom whilst searching for more elusive animals.
6. Be prepared
There’s little worse than getting up early and setting off at the perfect time of day to be interrupted or to realise you’ve left something at the lodge. So make sure you bring your binoculars (plural – for easier sharing!) and your guide books to tick off what you’ve seen to keep everyone happy. And please make sure everyone’s been to the loo before you leave!
