There are some tourist activities in Africa where they don’t allow kids, for example, in Uganda and Rwanda, there are primate tracking, such as the chimpanzee, golden monkey, and gorilla trekking, where a kid below 10 years is not allowed to participate. But in case you go for such activities, yet you travel with the kids, your kids can be kept at the lodge or can get another activity they can engage in.
