Short nature walks around camp are an interesting and engaging option for children under 16, who may not take part in the usual walking safaris. 

For families with young children, we recommend Somalisa Acacia.

THE CAMP

 

Somalisa's communal area is comprised of several open-sided Bedouin-style tents covering a large lounge, bar and dining area. The camp has seven elegant sail tents spread out in a large arc with modern appointments such as a fan, wood-burning fireplace and a private viewing deck. The bathroom is worthy of a special mention, inspired by the romance of yesteryear, boasting indoor and outdoor bathrooms and featuring a copper slipper-style bathtub overlooking endless views across the vast plains beyond. Somalisa's pool is world famous for drawing elephants in for an up close experience.
