SAA Vacations' Introduces Family Safari Collection; Packages Available At Discount

South African Airways Vacations (SAAV) is inviting parents to look beyond the normal vacation and take their families on an educational and experiential safari in South Africa with its air-inclusive Family Safari collection. Starting at $3,398* per person (restr. apply), the 8-day "Best of South Africa" package includes a 3-night stay in Cape Town with tours, and a 3-night stay at one of four beautifully appointed safari lodges, where families will enjoy multiple game drives tracking Africa's Big 5.

SAA Vacations' customizable Family Safari collection also includes packages with a variety of activities, properties and lodges that families will enjoy, including Jr. Tracker and Ranger training programs, exploration of the Cape region's Garden Route, or the world-famous Victoria Falls in Zambia. SAAV's goal is to arrange the perfect vacation for families with varying budgets, resulting in a vacation that achieves that difficult goal of providing children with a vacation that entertains and educates, while wowing adults, too.

The SAA Vacations family safari packages can be booked at a discount for a limited time, with SAAV's current fall package sale, offering $125 off per person (restr. apply) for all packages booked by Oct. 15.

"Families are discovering that vacations to Africa can be fun and incredibly rewarding for the entire family. The SAA Vacations Family Safari collection will provide families with an unforgettable and lasting experience," said Terry von Guilleaume, president of SAA Vacations. "From the flights to South Africa to the activities there, children will be entertained throughout the entire journey, and will return with a new knowledge of wildlife, history and different cultures."

SAA Vacations packages include international and domestic Africa flights on South African Airways. Parents are able to reserve kid's meals for the flight, and children receive a keepsake entertainment pack. Hours of children's video games and programming on board make the time fly by and results in the flights being an enjoyable part of the vacation.
