Child policy:- Sharing all the
wonders that an African game reserve has with children is one
of the pleasures that the Impodimo team treasures. The safety
of children on safari is of paramount importance to our staff
and for this reason we reserve the right to limit children's participation
on safaris designed to bring you, the parent, close to big game.
For this reason we have created the concept of the 'bush bumble'
where we encourage parents to join their children on a game drive
designed to focus on the little things.
