2 Days Tanzania Family Safari

Your adventure begins in Arusha, where the warm and welcoming team from Kiwoito Africa Safaris greets you at your hotel or the airport. After a brief introduction, you’ll hop into a spacious 4×4 safari vehicle, perfect for families, and set off on a scenic 2.5-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. Known for its breathtaking scenery and abundant wildlife, Tarangire feels like stepping into the heart of Africa. The park’s iconic baobab trees tower over the landscape, and the Tarangire River draws an incredible variety of animals, making it an ideal spot for your family’s first game drive.

As you explore the park, your expert guide, whose deep knowledge of Tanzania’s wildlife shines through, will point out herds of elephants, often numbering in the hundreds, grazing alongside zebras, giraffes, and wildebeest. Keep an eye out for lions lounging in the shade or leopards resting in the branches of acacia trees. The kids will love the thrill of spotting colorful birds like the lilac-breasted roller or the quirky white-bellied go-away bird. Around midday, you’ll pause for a delightful picnic lunch by the river, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the wild. Your guide will share fascinating stories about the animals and the park’s ecosystem, sparking curiosity for all ages.

As the afternoon sun softens, you’ll continue your game drive, soaking in the beauty of Tarangire’s rolling savannah. As the day draws to a close, you’ll head to the serene Marera Valley Lodge, nestled just outside the park in Karatu. This family-friendly lodge offers cozy accommodations, delicious meals, and a welcoming atmosphere where you can unwind. Over a hearty dinner, you’ll share stories of the day’s adventures while the kids marvel at the day’s sightings. The lodge’s tranquil setting ensures a restful night, preparing you for the next day’s journey.
