    Why is this tour inappropriate for a 10 year old?

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • Sunway SafarisOperatorWritten April 2025

      We only offer tours to children over 12, with an accompanying adult, as often there are long distances involved, and this can be boring for a child. Then, most importantly, there is the safety aspect; we may come into close proximity to wild animals where the travellers need to listen to their guide and act accordingly. To have such a young child in this kind of situation is simply unsafe.

      What types vehicles are used on your drives? I honestly was scared in those vehicles myself.

    • Sunway SafarisOperatorWritten April 2025

      On the tour you have enquired about you would be at times wild camping and very likely could encounter elephants and hippos around your tents at night.
