Caz & Craig in Namibia (c) y Travel Blog
Easter's just around the corner so we thought it was time for a "family" First Friday Wild Post. Yes, Caz and Craig Makepeace, the wanderlust duo who founded the y travel blog, are sure fire proof that even when you have kids in tow, you should go with the flow and let your inner nomad take control!
To date Caz and Craig have visited 35 countries and have lived in five so when it comes to their blog you'll find no shortage of inspiration and motivation to keep you on the move.
If your own tribe has a calling for the wild, get your eyes round these sensational shots of the African animal kingdom and come and discover the continent. Of course, when you're done you can also leaf through our 2011 brochure online as we've got over 45 family tagged tours that will have your kids going wide eyed over the Big Five!
My three year old daughter kalyra awoke this morning and said..."Daddy, I want to go to Africa and see the big elephants and giraffe?"
Did your kids love the movie The Lion King just as much as Kalyra? Well, if you've ever dreamed of bringing that movie to life, and placing your kids on a real life film set, then go to Africa.
Whether it's seeing the big 5 like the lion, elephant, and leopard. Or, a baby giraffe, hippo, or rhino, then Africa is where it's at. For a true family adventure, I can't think of anything better than going on safari and experiencing nature at its best. And for us, Africa is all about the animals.

A great option for going on a safari and seeing the best wildlife encounters is to go on an organized tour. That way, everything will be included and organized such as park entrance fees, transport, accommodation, most meals, and an experienced tour guide who will be knowledgeable and know an incredible amount about the animals and the back roads to find them.
Other tour options include taking a night drive, a guided walking safari, and even a horse ride.
What are you waiting for? Grab your kids, your camera, and take that family adventure of a lifetime!
Caz Makepeace has been traveling and living around the world since 2002, first with her husband, and now with their three year old daughter. You can learn more about the family's travels at y Travel Blog.
