Discover the Best Family Safari Holidays in Kenya & Tanzania
Family safari vacations are a great way to learn about and appreciate not only the wildlife but also each other. This is true whether you are going with very young children, school-aged children, teens, or three generations.
You can call, WhatsApp, email, or fill out our online form to get in touch with one of our helpful travel agents. They will then set you up on your own unique African family tour.
East Africa is a great place for families.
If you talk to an Safari Trips to Kenya tour agent, they will want to know all about your family, including how old the kids are, what they like, and what kinds of wildlife and experiences you want to see. We will make sure that your family’s safari meets all of their wants and expectations.
For example, at the Massai Mara Reserve, the big cats will thrill both little kids and the most jaded teens. The park also has a lot of other things to find. You can take a hot air balloon safari over the park or take the kids to a Maasai town to meet people who live in a world very different from their own. Some people may even ask them to join in a jumping dance.
What does a kid love more than pets? Little animals! If you go to Serengeti National Park during calving season, you and your family will love seeing the thousands of new wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, giraffe, and even lion and cheetah babies.
And not far from Nairobi is the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage, where you can see dozens of baby elephants drinking from big baby bottles, playing in the mud, and even kicking soccer balls! This is a great place for everyone, from children to grandparents.
Your family will do well.
Even the youngest members of your family will be amazed by nature’s gifts when you come across a group of gazelles in a clearing. This will spark a lifelong interest in animals and our place in the natural world.
Kids in school can join our experienced guides and become “Junior Rangers.” They will go on nature walks where they will find animal tracks, small animals, and the sights and sounds of the grassland up close. In addition, many of our hotels have kids’ clubs with story time and babysitting.
Your kids will probably have the most exciting time because a safari will keep them away from their phones and other electronics. Being just feet away from a lion is the best way to get a kid to look up from their phone and realize there’s a cool world outside of TikTok.
We can also set up protection programs, chances for your teen to meet people in the area, and even wildlife projects for the whole community.
Family Beaches
You know about the big parks like Serengeti and Masai Mara, but do you know about Diani, Mombasa, and Zanzibar? These last ones are Kenya and Tanzania’s beautiful beach getaways.
At these world-class beaches, you can add to your time with wildlife on an African family adventure. Your kids will love snorkeling and diving in a place that is clean, not busy, and perfect for nature lovers. They can see turtles, dolphins, and huge schools of colorful tropical fish.
Then, how safe is Africa for kids?
It is very safe to travel in Kenya and Tanzania. The people are friendly and willing to show you their world of wildlife, cultures, and beautiful landscapes.
We’re sure that our cities, towns, villages, and, of course, our fun parks will make you and your family feel welcome and at home.
You can be sure that your safety is our top concern when you book with a professional local outfitter like Safari Trips to Kenya.
