There is something so special about experiencing a family safari in Tanzania with your children and partner, Of all the destinations in the world, Tanzania offers some of the best family safari vacations.

Most safari camps and lodges on a family safari in Tanzania have one or two family suites where adjoining rooms or tents allow mom and dad their own space, while still ensuring the kids are close by and safe because you can move between the family tents or rooms at night without having to step outside and worry about wild animals. There is nothing quite as wonderful as witnessing your child’s reaction to spotting their first majestic wildlife in their natural habitat than on the Disney movies.

As all our Tanzania safaris are tailor-made to your family’s needs, we will create a bespoke itinerary jam-packed with things to keep everyone in the family happy. Children view the world with so much wonder that we often find that family safaris have a greater sense of amazement than other kinds of trips. Safaris can also become outdoor classrooms for children where they can learn about African wildlife in a fun and interactive way. Your children will also have the unique opportunity to meet and learn about the people of Tanzania. Traveling with your kids to Africa will open their eyes to the world, teaching them to celebrate differences and become citizens of the world.

Tanzania’s Family Safari is a prime wildlife-viewing spectacle. Kids will love seeing the well-habituated animals, as well as the vibrant Maasai culture. A good selection of child-friendly lodges, camps, hotels and restaurants ensures that there is plenty of choices for your Tanzania Safari.
