Our Africa family safaris in East Africa provide the best way to bond with the most important people in your life. Whether you wish to introduce youngsters to the wonders of an African safari or reconnect with older children or grandparents, a family safari offers extraordinary way to create lifelong memories.
Full of authentic cultural experiences, the kids will have plenty to brag about at school. Think: the thrill of seeing the Big 5, the joy of spending time with a family of wild gorillas (child minimum age 15), playing soccer with Maasai warriors in Kenya, or storytelling around a campfire under the stars. With child-friendly accommodations, kid-friendly meal options, dedicated family safari specialists, and a local guide that is trained to engage with young travelers, you can focus on making core memories. Your sense of adventure doesn’t disappear when you have kids, so why should your family holiday options be limited?
Adventurous families will fall in love with Uganda. Picture the thrill of taking your children to track wild gorillas and coming face-to-face with these extraordinary creatures in their lush, forested habitats. Imagine being with your family on a game drive searching for playful elephants and the rare tree-climbing lions. Or enjoy a peaceful boat cruise on a tropical waterway, teeming with crocodiles, hippos, and waterbirds. Yes, Uganda is not for everyone, and if your children would prefer hanging in a mall to heading out on a nature trail, then you might want to think twice about taking them on safari. But if they are receptive to the outdoors and love wildlife, a Uganda safari will be the holiday of a lifetime.
As family vacations go, a Kenyan safari is hard to beat. The country has big wildlife densities and varied landscapes. There is plenty of child-friendly accommodation. And you can time your visit to catch the annual wildebeest migration, when millions of hoofed animals migrate towards greener pastures. Seeing the wildebeest and zebras cross the Mara River is one of the most thrilling wildlife encounters ever. There is lots of predator action at this time too. You’ll definitely see the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino) here. And why not end the holiday with some time on one of Kenya’s picture-perfect beaches. Your kids will love you for it.
Tanzania is a perfect choice for a family safari. It also has big wildlife densities and varied landscapes. Aside from the parks, it is also home to the famous Spice Islands of Zanzibar, with their idyllic beaches. Whether you want to do a beach-bush combo or you want to disappear into the wilderness for at least a week, Tanzania is bound to offer an unforgettable experience. It’s even better if you can share the experience with your family. Your kids will love it, but there are a few things to consider when planning a trip to Tanzania with children. Below, some often-asked questions are answered.
