FAMILY SAFARI HOLIDAY IN TANZANIA
Tanzania is fantastic for family safaris! As the country is situated within Africa’s malaria belt, we don’t recommend traveling 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. And the larger your group is, the more economical the trip becomes, as the cost of using a vehicle is split among the family. The Selous Game Reserve 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 holiday.

Safari is guaranteed to create lasting memories for everyone .
Best Time for a Family Safari in Tanzania
Even though Tanzania is a great place to visit year round, arguably the best time to go on a family safari holiday in Tanzania is between the months of January to March. This period of time marks the end of the highly crowded holiday season, making it a great time to explore the parks with your family. Also, you can find a lot of off-road activities and predator-prey action in the Southern Serengeti during that time of year.
The months of January, February and March are the peak of the calving season. The wildebeest herds arrive and stay in the southern Serengeti and Ndutu plains from the end of December until the end of March, with most wildebeest calves born in a short window around February. Then around May/June, they start their great migration north.

Oliver R2023-12-12THE BEST TOUR AGENCY FOR KILIMANJARO TREKKING AND WILDLIFE SAFARIES This was the first time I had travelled with Mr Lyimo . The company specialises in expert-led cultural and wildlife tours in Tanzania East Africa. Group numbers are small, accommodation at the hotel in Moshi Kilimajaro was comfortable and food excellent. The expert mountain and safari guide who accompanied us was outstanding - passionate, informative, engaging and entertaining. The itinerary for 6 days Climbing Kilimanjaro and 5 Days wildlife safari was very well thought out, combining leisure time with activity and not-to-be-missed opportunities to swim in the Kikuletwa Hot springs ( Maji Moto) . The client is obviously at the heart of the itinerary planning, and attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting a fun, relaxed, educational holiday with fine food - they will deliver! Thanks Mr Lyimo for your good arrangement.Verified
