FAMILY SAFARIS
Taking your children on safari is both an exciting and rewarding experience. Our son, Rami, started game-viewing at 4 months old and our daughter Eisha at the same age.
We have combined game viewing safaris and cultural experiences to give fami-lies the opportunity to see the story book animals and to learn about other cul-tures along the way. By minimising transfer times between activities our fam-ily itineraries give maxi-mum experience and avoid the dreaded "are we there yet?" questioning.
Lodges and hotels have been carefully chosen to suit the need of families, catering for both the busy minds and eager hands of kids. And with Tanzanian’s being the friendliest of Africa’s Nationals, you are never short of a pair of hands to allow you time to relax over a quiet ‘SUNDOWNER’.
Family holidays are great fun, especially in Tanzania, where your children can experience ‘The Lion King’ for themselves.
