Itinerary
Arrival and Journey to Serengeti
Serengeti
Start your family safari with a warm welcome at Kilimanjaro Airport. A friendly Tanzania Safari Source guide will greet you and introduce the adventure ahead. Enjoy a scenic drive to Serengeti, with fun stopovers for kids. As you reach the open plains, excitement grows. Settle into a family-friendly lodge with cozy rooms and child-friendly meals. End the day with a fun wildlife talk to get everyone ready for tomorrow’s game drive.
Family Adventure in Serengeti
Serengeti
After breakfast, head out on a family-friendly game drive through the Serengeti. Our guides are great with children and make wildlife spotting exciting. Look out for playful lion cubs, elephants, and giraffes. Enjoy a picnic lunch in a safe area where kids can stretch. In the afternoon, continue game viewing at a relaxed pace before returning to the lodge to unwind.
Serengeti to Ngorongoro
Ngorongoro Crater
Start with an early morning game drive when animals are most active. Return for breakfast and pack up for your journey to Ngorongoro. The drive includes wildlife viewing opportunities and child-friendly stops at interesting points. Arrive at your crater lodge in the afternoon, where kids can enjoy the spectacular views of the crater below. The lodge offers family activities and a chance to learn about Maasai culture through age-appropriate presentations.
Exploration of Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater
Descend into the magical Ngorongoro Crater for a day of discovery. The crater floor is perfect for families as wildlife is easily visible and drives are shorter. Spot pink flamingos at the lake, watch elephants up close, and maybe see the rare black rhino. Enjoy a family picnic lunch surrounded by the crater walls. Our guides make it fun with wildlife spotting games and interesting facts about the crater's formation. Return to the lodge for dinner and evening storytelling.
Farewell to Tanzania
Enjoy a relaxed breakfast while taking in the final views of the African landscape. Kids can participate in a mini wildlife drawing session while parents pack. Transfer back to the airport with photo stops along the way. Your guide will help children complete their junior ranger activity books and present them with special certificates to remember their African adventure. Bid farewell to Tanzania with countless family memories to cherish.
