Safari style

Family Safaris

Safaris planned for families: shorter drives, child-friendly lodges with pools, and guides who bring the bush to life for young explorers.

Planned around you

A safari is one of the most exciting trips a family can take together. We plan family safaris around your children's ages and energy: shorter drives between parks, lodges with family rooms and swimming pools, a private vehicle so you can stop whenever you need, and guides who know how to make every sighting exciting for young travellers.

How we plan for families

  • Fewer, longer stays and drives of no more than a few hours at a time.
  • Lodges that welcome children, with family rooms, pools and flexible meal times.
  • A private vehicle and guide, so the day runs at your family's pace.
  • Activities for curious minds: Olduvai Gorge, cultural visits, junior ranger moments and bird lists.
  • A few days on Zanzibar to finish.

Ages and rules

Children of all ages are welcome on game drives in private vehicles. Some lodges, walking safaris and activities have minimum ages, and gorilla trekking is for ages 15 and over. Tell us the exact ages of your children when you enquire.

We design every family safari privately. Tell us about your family and we will send you a plan.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Still wondering about something? Our team in Arusha answers every message personally.

What is the best age for a safari?

Children from about six enjoy safari most, but younger children are welcome in a private vehicle. We choose lodges that suit your children's ages.

Is malaria a concern for children?

Speak to your doctor about malaria prevention for each child. We can also suggest lodges in higher, cooler areas where mosquitoes are fewer.
