5 Days Tanzania Family Safari

OVERVIEW

This 5-day Tanzania family safari is designed for families looking to explore Tanzania’s incredible wildlife and landscapes together. The journey takes you through Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, with plenty of opportunities to spot the Big Five and enjoy the beauty of the African savannah. Each day brings something exciting, from watching elephants in Tarangire to witnessing the great migration in Serengeti and exploring the Ngorongoro Crater.

Day 1: Arrival in Arusha

Your family adventure begins in Arusha, the gateway to Tanzania’s northern safari circuit. Upon arrival, settle into your hotel and take the day to relax after your journey. If time allows, a short visit to a local market or a cultural center can be a great way to introduce the kids to Tanzanian culture. Get a good night’s rest, as the safari excitement starts tomorrow.

Day 2: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park, known for its massive elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Kids will love spotting giraffes, zebras, and playful monkeys along the way. The Tarangire River attracts a variety of animals, making wildlife sightings easy. Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the park and continue with game drives before heading to your lodge or tented camp for the night.

Day 3: Tarangire to Serengeti National Park

Today, head towards the famous Serengeti, a highlight of any Tanzania family safari. The drive offers stunning views and a chance to spot wildlife even before reaching the park. Serengeti is home to endless plains filled with wildebeest, lions, cheetahs, and more. A game drive in the afternoon gives your family a chance to witness the raw beauty of Africa’s wildlife up close. Spend the night in a comfortable lodge or tented camp under the stars.

Day 4: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Start the day with an early morning game drive when the animals are most active. Your guide will take you to the best spots to see predators on the hunt or herds moving across the savannah. After breakfast, begin the drive to Ngorongoro, stopping along the way for wildlife sightings and breathtaking views. Arrive at your accommodation near the crater in time to relax before tomorrow’s big adventure.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater Safari – Return to Arusha

Wake up early for a drive into the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the best places in Tanzania to see the Big Five in one day. The crater floor is packed with wildlife, from rhinos grazing in the distance to hippos cooling off in the water. Enjoy a picnic lunch by a scenic spot before driving back to Arusha, where your Tanzania family safari ends. Depending on your flight schedule, you may have time for a final stroll through town before heading to the airport.
