Children's Programme

Children under the age of 6 years are not allowed on normal game drives, however, Thornybush Game Lodge has a special programme prepared for them prior to their arrival. They are allocated to specific rangers, and each child will receive a complimentary children’s 'Little Ranger in Training' pack on arrival, which will keep them entertained and occupied during their stay.

Rat packs (cold drinks/cookies) are sent with them on game drives.

Drives and activities can be tailored to suit children's interests and attention span, and walks are designed to ensure that their safety is taken into account and that they experience activities they might not normally do in the city.

Meal requirements and venues are provided if required by parents. Baby sitters and child minders are also available (at an additional cost - rates on request).

Some other activities that children can enjoy are picnics next to the pool, short walks with their own ranger who will point out insects, tracks of animals, trees and interesting facts, and treasure hunts, where the children have to find clues around the lodge using books from the library, to get to their treasure (a little something supplied by parents).
