A Family Safari Holiday of a Lifetime 
Ulusaba is Sir Richard Branson's private game reserve in South Africa. In true Virgin style the emphasis is on exceptional personal service. Both luxury safari lodges cater for small groups; so your safari in South Africa is guaranteed to be exclusive and private. What's more, attentive staff and superb facilities will ensure that being in the middle of the African bush does not need to mean foregoing creature comforts. You'll have the unique sights, sounds and smells of Africa on your doorstep - while still enjoying the kind of style and luxury you'd expect from a five star boutique hotel. 
Kids go Free at Ulusaba Game Reserve 
Take your cubs (children aged 0-11yrs) on an African Safari to Ulusaba during Easter and the October half term break in addition to July and August, and the first two go free! Kids (referred to as cubs) are positively welcomed at Rock Lodge, so much so that in addition to the fantastic Cubs Club programme and the Rock Suite -especially designed for families- there are the recently completed two new family suites complete with their own plunge pool. Taking your cubs away can be expensive, and some accommodation suppliers will even charge you more just because you are travelling during school holidays. So in true Virgin style, here you pay less! 
Plan your Safari around school breaks 
Up to two children travelling with one or more adults will go free provided they stay at Ulusaba during the following periods in 2006: April, July, August and the latter half of October. Please visit the Ulusaba website to see what the offer is subject to.
