Luxury Tanzania Family Tours made for you
Start PlanningIncredible game viewing the whole family will love, coupled with comfortable lodging
Tanzania offers a huge scope of safari for families.
Depending on your tastes, preferences, ages and abilities we’ll help you choose from the wild game concessions in its lesser-known corners with authentic campaign-style camps, to action-packed game drives in the Serengeti. There is a lot of choice, and we can help put together a bespoke itinerary that fits you all perfectly.
From our experience, Tanzania is a country better suited to older families as the choices for young families here are quite limited given the remote locations, age restrictions at the accommodation, and the level of travelling involved with many of its destinations. Nevertheless, we have a great portfolio of family-friendly lodges, camps and villas in Tanzania that have kids clubs and special activities for younger children so please speak to one of our consultants.
Your personal safari designer will advise and recommend on the best places to stay and tours to be had as a family. They will shoulder the detailed planning and a personal itinerary organised to the highest of standards.

Where to go
Arusha
Arguably the Safari Capital of East Africa, Arusha is a bustling city in northern Tanzania and the main hub for those who are going to be embarking on a safari in this extensively game rich country.
Katavi National Park
Completely off the beaten track, Katavi is isolated and undiscovered by all but the most ardent safari goers.
Kilimanjaro Climb
After trekking through varying landscapes, witness the spectacular sweeping sights as you reach the summit during this awesome lifetime experience.
Lake Manyara
Lake Manyara is a very popular park, made even more so for its tree-climbing lions, thriving herds of giraffe and broad range of bird species.
Mahale Mountains
What makes this location extra special is the presence of chimpanzees in the thick forests that cover the mountains. Jane Goodall made the area famous.
Mwiba Wildlife Reserve
Mwiba is home to just one permanent camp and lodge meaning that the huge reserve will be shared between a handful of guests.
Ngorongoro Crater
A great introduction to Tanzania, this nature wonderland offers you sightings of the big five as well as a whole host of excellent plains game.
North Serengeti
The North Serengeti forms the border with the equally famous Maasai Mara of Kenya. This is the region where the herds are at their most concentrated during the migration, and it’s where you’ll see the infamous river crossings.
Nyerere National Park
One of Africa's wildest parks, the Selous is vast and gives one a sense of safari untouched by humans.
Ruaha National Park
For a genuinely rewarding safari experience, delve deep into the heart of Tanzania to uncover the wild and remote Ruaha National Park.
Serengeti National Park
Dotted with umbrella acacia and baobabs, giraffe, lion prides, elephant herds and cheetahs, it is the quintessential East African landscape.
Singita Grumeti
An area of around 350,000 acres of untouched wilderness, the reserve is exclusive to Singita properties, which means that your visit here is going to be unrivalled in terms of privacy.
Tarangire National Park
One of Tanzania’s iconic parks, Tarangire is a great place to start or end your visit. It is famous for its large population of elephants.
Zanzibar
The African island of Zanzibar, paired with its Arabian history, makes for an excellent safari add-on. With intriguing architecture evident in the main town, Stone Town, you will be able to experience a mix of culture and landscape with pristine beaches and crystal clear waters.
