Family Safari Holidays in Tanzania
Tanzania is fantastic for family safari holidays! As the country is situated within Africa’s malaria belt, we don’t recommend travelling here with children under 6 years. However, it’s a great destination for wildlife-loving youngsters aged 6 years and over.
For sheer concentration of animals,Tanzania is hard to beat! Game drives are action packed out here, for example in the areas making up the country’s famous Northern Circuit. These areas are among the most affordable destinations in Africa for family safari holidays. The larger your group is, the more economical the trip becomes, as the cost of using a vehicle is split among the family. Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous) in Tanzania’s south region is worth considering too, and there’s the exciting option of combining your safari with a beach break on Zanzibar!
Throughout the country’s north and south, a lot of properties are well set up for families. For example, they have family rooms or interconnecting rooms. Additionally, some have swimming pools and larger communal areas. And a few companies offer private activities for families, so you can take a flexible approach to your family safari holiday.
