One of the best ways to enjoy your safari experience is to share it with family and, in particular, your children. The wonders of the natural world come alive when experiencing the bushveld next to a young child and seemingly insignificant aspects of the wild erupt with interest when engaged upon with fresh eyes and ears. One of our primary aims at Londolozi is to nurture young people’s interest in the natural world and it is with much excitement that we announce a brand new iBooks created specifically for kids – Junior Big Five Tracker!
