Cottar’s Safaris Launches New Multigenerational Offer: “Bring the Grandparents for 50% Off”

Cottar’s Safaris - Africa’s oldest family-run safari company - is delighted to announce an exclusive new four-night multigenerational offer designed to meet the continued growing demand for multi-gen safaris. Long known for welcoming families back year after year, Cottar’s Safaris is making it even easier for loved ones to share meaningful time in the wild together.

The Offer: Book four nights in one of the NEW Family Tents at the multi-award-winning Cottar’s 1920s Camp and receive:

• 50% off a Luxury Tent for the grandparents
• Complimentary accommodation for one child under 13

The package includes:

Louise Cottar, CEO and Co-owner of Cottar’s Safaris comments ‘Over the past five years, we’ve seen a rising desire among families to travel with grandparents. These are some of the most meaningful safaris we host, and yet they can be difficult to organise. As a company with more than a century of family safari heritage ourselves, we understand just how powerful these shared moments can be. I haven’t seen other camps offering anything quite like this, so we wanted to create something genuinely helpful and different. This offer is designed to make it easier for families to spend time together, to learn together, and to create memories that pass from one generation to the next’

Available from $24,000 (Saving 20% / $6,000) per multi-gen family accommodated on a full board basis in a two-bedroom family tent and a luxury double tent.  Offer includes a maximum of 4 adults and 2 children under 13.
