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 families the opportunity to see
the story book animals and
to learn about other cultures along the way. By
minimising transfer times
between activities our family itineraries give maximum 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.
