10 Days of Family Memories

Tarangire | Ngorongoro | Zanzibar | Kid-Friendly Lodges | Family Activities

This is the perfect family adventure - a 10-day safari that combines thrilling wildlife encounters, cultural experiences, and beach relaxation in Zanzibar. Designed specifically for families with children aged 6+, this itinerary balances exciting game drives with kid-friendly activities and plenty of downtime.

Your adventure begins in Tarangire National Park, where giant baobab trees and massive elephant herds will captivate the whole family. Then continue to Ngorongoro Crater, a natural wonder teeming with wildlife. The grand finale is four blissful days in Zanzibar, where you can relax on pristine beaches after your safari adventures.

What makes this safari special are our family-focused touches: child-friendly guides, shorter game drives with fun animal-tracking activities, lodges with swimming pools, and special kids' menus. We've included unique experiences that will delight both children and adults alike.
