8 Days Tanzania Family Safari
8 Days Tanzania Family Safari
Bring the whole crew on a journey where schoolbooks come alive and every day ends with stories under African skies. Designed for parents, kids, and teens alike, our 8‑Day Tanzania Family Safari pairs bucket‑list wildlife with hands‑on cultural encounters and lodges that understand what families need: space, safety, and a splash of fun.
Track elephants in Tarangire, descend into the Ngorongoro “Garden of Eden,” and spend two full days chasing the Great Migration across the Serengeti—all while staying in welcoming camps and lodges that offer pools, family rooms, and plenty of downtime.
8 Days Tanzania Family Safari
Day 1 | Arrival – Kilimanjaro Airport
Highlights: Eco‑lodge welcome • Maasai hosts • Mountain views
A smiling Revelation Adventure Safaris representative greets you at Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfers you (≈1 hr) to a scenic eco‑lodge watched over by friendly Maasai hosts. Settle in, shake off the jet lag, and let the kids explore the wide lawns while parents toast the trip ahead.
Day 2 | Maasai Culture Immersion
Highlights: Nature walk • Traditional crafts & songs • Spear‑throwing fun
Swap the safari jeep for sandals as a Maasai warrior leads you on a short bush walk, teaching the secrets of medicinal plants. Kids try their hand at spear‑throwing; parents sample fresh local coffee. Optional extras—donkey ride or visit to a Maasai boma—keep curious minds engaged. Cap the day with sunset songs and dance on a hilltop with Kilimanjaro glowing in the distance.
Day 3 | Tarangire National Park – Elephant Kingdom
Highlights: Giant baobabs • Massive elephant herds • Pool‑side sunset
After an early breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park. From your pop‑up‑roof vehicle, watch elephants parade beneath ancient baobabs, spot tree‑climbing lions, and picnic by the Tarangire River. Overnight in a tented lodge on Lake Burunge’s shore—swim, skip stones, or stroll the lakeside before dinner under the stars.
Day 4 | Tarangire – Choose Your Pace
Option A: Dawn‑to‑dusk game drive with picnic lunch.
Option B: Lazy lodge morning (pool & pancakes) followed by an afternoon safari.
Either way, elephant encounters and birdlife abound. Late day, continue to the lush highlands of Karatu for dinner and overnight in a family‑friendly lodge amid rolling coffee estates.
Day 5 | Ngorongoro Crater Tour – Onward to Serengeti
Highlights: Big Five in a day • Picnic at Hippo Pool • Savannah sundowner
Descend 600 m into the Ngorongoro Crater, home to over 25,000 animals. With expert guiding, you might tick off rhino, lion, and buffalo before lunch. After a picnic by the hippos, drive onward into the legendary Serengeti, game‑viewing en route. Check in to a solar‑powered eco‑lodge that marries Swiss‑inspired service with African soul.
Days 6 & 7 | Serengeti – Great Migration Safari
Highlights: Mara River crossings* • Predator action • Endless plains
Spend two full days following the thundering herds of wildebeest and zebra (July–Oct in the north, Dec–Mar in the south). With luck—and your guide’s sharp eyes—you’ll witness dramatic river crossings or a stealthy predator on the hunt. Flexible hours let the family balance adventure with lodge downtime: pool dips, junior ranger talks, or stargazing by the campfire.
*Migration timing varies; we position you for the best chance based on the season.
Day 8 | Seronera – Fly or Drive Back to Arusha
After breakfast, a short hop to Seronera Airstrip puts you on a scenic flight to Arusha (included), arriving in time for onward travel or a relaxing hotel night. Prefer the open road? Opt to drive back (~7–8 hrs) with wildlife stops and picnic lunch along the way. Whichever you choose, your family safari with Revelation Adventure Safaris ends brimming with shared memories.
