NEW YORK, NY, Jan. 4, 2011 -- Families are becoming increasingly intrepid when it comes to planning their next getaway. As the New Year gets underway, families across the U.S. are starting to discuss their summer travel plans. Now more than ever, Africa is the destination of choice for families. In addition to a world class African safari experience, with family-friendly activities such as walking, swimming, school visits and more, Offbeat Safaris operates safaris in Kenya ideally suited to families with children of all ages.

Offbeat Meru Camp, an intimate, vintage safari camp located in northern Kenya, is an ideal location to start a family safari. This intimate safari camp is located on the edge of Meru National Park in the Bisanadi National Reserve in a stunning location overlooking the Bisanadi River with beautiful riverine forest. Meru National Park itself boasts healthy wildlife numbers with large elephant and buffalo herds, giraffe galore, plenty of lions and one of Kenya's finest Rhino Sanctuaries with around 70 Rhino. 

„At Offbeat Meru Camp we have plenty to keep families entertained including the opportunity to walk through the bush with an armed guide, visits to local primary schools, interaction with the local community, fishing in one of the many rivers, and visiting the graves of the famed Lionesses Elsa and Pippa in the national park,‰ said Piers Winkworth, Director of Offbeat Safaris. „Of course, kids and parents alike also take full advantage of relaxing at our infinity pool right in the safari camp!‰

Both Offbeat Meru Camp and sister property Offbeat Mara Camp, located just north of the Masai Mara in the new Mara North Conservancy, offer teenager and child rates all year round and also offer multi-night specials between properties, making these intimate safari camps some of the most affordable, traditional safari camps in East Africa.
