Tanzania Family Safari Holidays

Naturally, your first step to booking an unforgettable Tanzania family holiday and safari is to narrow down the parks that you want to have a safari in because this may determine your budget and indeed the suitability for the younger members in your party. With so much to choose from, it can be daunting trying to choose the perfect Tanzania family holiday, however, with a little bit of planning, the ultimate family safari holiday in Tanzania is within easy reach.

Tanzania family holidays and family safaris offer so much for children to explore, a chance to see animals of all kinds in beautiful natural environments, to enjoy beautiful beaches, to experience Tanzania cultures, and share unforgettable family safari holiday experiences.

Tips on keeping children interested while on a safari
Sometimes, travelling around with children during a family safari holiday becomes a test for parents, and what can we say about the long journey between parks! We want to introduce you to some things that will be very useful on a long family safari holiday in Tanzania with your child and will make them have an enjoyable and easy family holiday.

Game drives can be long and a little dull since spotting wildlife can be tricky. Here are some tips to help keep your little ones interested:

Buy them a camera.
Make sure they have a pair of binoculars each.
Be adventurous, children are more robust than you think and families often really enjoy simple add-on safari activities such as walking in the bush.
Give them a bird or animal checklist to mark off what they see (we can provide you with one).
Stay in family-oriented lodges and camps that offer special drives for children or baby-sitting options so you can leave them at the lodge.
Award points or prizes for spotting birds, insects, and wildlife.
Travel with a fun safari pack for your kids (spot the difference, colour me in, copy and colour, join the dots), we can provide this.
Our goal when planning Tanzania family holidays for our customers is to give an excellent opportunity to strengthen family relationships between parents and children in an atmosphere of mutual understanding and love. We offer relaxation, full of interesting events, and joint activities. Here you can also make new friends.

For most trips, airfare is the most expensive part of the trip. While prices for transatlantic flights have gone down in recent years, they can still put a sizeable dent in any travel budget. Whether you’re a budget solo traveler or a family looking to vacation abroad, finding a cheap flight deal can be what makes or breaks your trip.

The first thing to know about finding a cheap flight is that there is no magic bullet or one secret ninja trick to doing so. There are a lot of myths online about how to find cheap flights. In fact, you’ve probably come across a ton of them on your search to find the best flight deal!

Moreover, it’s almost always cheaper to fly during the middle of the week than on a weekend because most people travel on the weekends and airlines hike their prices then. Prices are also cheaper if you fly after a major holiday as are early-morning or late-night flights are cheaper because fewer people want to travel then (who wants to wake up early?!).
