The Journey
Day 1
Arrival In Tanzania
Welcome to Tanzania!
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, your private Atlas guide will meet your family and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha.
After your journey, the rest of the day is free to settle in, relax and recover from the flight. There is no safari scheduled today, allowing everyone to start the holiday feeling refreshed and ready for the adventure ahead.
Day 2
A Relaxed Day In Arusha
Today is intentionally slow and relaxed.
After breakfast, enjoy a leisurely day at your hotel. The family can rest, swim, enjoy the gardens or, if everyone feels up to it, take part in a gentle family-friendly activity in Arusha.
There are no early morning wake-up calls or long drives today. This gives the whole family time to adjust to Tanzania before the safari begins.
Day 3
Arusha To Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, depart Arusha and travel towards Tarangire National Park, famous for its magnificent baobab trees, beautiful landscapes and large herds of elephants.
Begin your safari upon entering the park, keeping an eye out for elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, lions and a wonderful variety of birdlife.
Continue to your lodge in the evening and enjoy a relaxed dinner surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.
Day 4
Full-Day Tarangire Safari
Wake up surrounded by the wilderness of Tarangire.
Today, enjoy a full-day private safari exploring different parts of the park. With your private guide, the day can be adapted to your family's pace, with opportunities to stop for breaks whenever the children need some downtime.
Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park before continuing your game drive. Keep your eyes open for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras and other wildlife.
Return to your lodge in the late afternoon for a relaxing evening.
Day 5
Tarangire To Karatu
After breakfast, leave Tarangire and continue towards Karatu, a charming town nestled among the green landscapes of the Ngorongoro Highlands.
The journey is intentionally relaxed, with opportunities to stop along the way and enjoy the changing scenery.
Arrive at your family-friendly lodge and spend the afternoon at leisure. The children can enjoy the open space, swimming pool or other lodge facilities while the parents take some time to relax.
Day 6
A Relaxed Family Day In Karatu
Today is a no-rush day.
After several days of travel and safari, the family has time to slow down and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Karatu.
Spend the day relaxing at your lodge, swimming, exploring the gardens or enjoying a gentle family-friendly activity. The day can also be used simply to rest and recharge before tomorrow's Ngorongoro Crater adventure.
Day 7
Ngorongoro Crater
Today, the family experiences one of Tanzania's greatest wildlife destinations — the Ngorongoro Crater.
After breakfast, descend into the crater for a game drive through this extraordinary natural amphitheatre. Its unique ecosystem supports an incredible concentration of wildlife, making it an exciting experience for both children and adults.
Look out for lions, elephants, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, hippos and many other animals as you explore the crater floor.
After the safari, return to Karatu for your final evening in Tanzania.
Day 8
Farewell Tanzania
After breakfast, enjoy your final moments in Tanzania before your private transfer from Karatu to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your flight home.
The departure time from Karatu will be arranged according to your international flight schedule, allowing the family to travel comfortably and arrive at the airport with sufficient time for check-in.
Please note: Depending on the departure time of your flight, an additional overnight near Kilimanjaro Airport may be recommended to avoid a long early-morning transfer with young children.
