7 favourite family-friendly hotels and lodges in Tanzania.
There is a lovely family tent at Impala Camp which is perfect for a family with two or three children. It consists of two tented rooms which are equal in size, though one has a bathroom with his and hers sinks for the parents and the other has a slightly simpler open plan bathroom for the children. These two rooms are raised on a single platform, meaning that you can pass between them without having to cross the ground. This is especially important at night, when there can be animals in the camp and you are not permitted to walk without an escort. - View lodge details

Gibb's Farm is a very family-orientated lodge. There is plenty to keep both adults and children busy – from two hour walks in the NCA to 45-minute walks around the farm. Families would find a visit to the traditional African Spa not only relaxing but also educational and fun. - View lodge details
