With over 16 years of experience planning East African safaris, I recommend combining private Serengeti and Ngorongoro game drives with a relaxing Zanzibar beach stay for families travelling with children.

Choose flexible game-drive schedules, pack warm clothing for Ngorongoro's cooler mornings, and allow time for children to rest between activities. For the best experience, confirm family-room arrangements, domestic flights and children's travel requirements before departure.
