Young explorers traveling with SkySafari now have more to look forward to on their journey with ‘Wildlife Warrior’ packs and a delightful new collection of children’s books at properties on the SkySafari circuit. Children travelling between four and 12 will receive their gift bag containing carefully selected items that combine fun with conservation education upon arrival at their first camp on the SkySafari itinerary. The pack includes a 350ml water bottle available in pink or green with fun wildlife illustrations, a Warrior Cup with plaster of Paris for creating footprint moulds with guides, eco-friendly colouring pencils made from recycled newspaper, and an activity journal filled with safari-themed illustrations and games. Each pack also contains seed balls with only indigenous plant species, allowing children to contribute directly to conservation efforts during their stay. For example, in Tanzania, these will be herbs suitable for planting in our shamba gardens where applicable.

From the playful Ugly Five and Crazy Big Five to enchanting tales like The Wildest Dog & Other African Stories and Under the Baobab Tree, each book celebrates the wonders of the continent’s landscapes, cultures, and creatures.
