Nomad has always been about family, ours grew up here and we’re still delighting in the same adventures. Even the smallest animal sighting can be elevated by fresh young eyes, and ticking off the mammals list can be a serious business.  

Why choose a Family Safari with Nomad?

For over 30 years we’ve lived and worked in Tanzania’s wildest places, raising families of our own. We know how to make it safe, thoughtful, and full of discovery. For families, it’s never just a safari, what matters is the time spent together and the stories that last.  

Time together, out in the wild

From small, tented camps deep in the bush to private houses tucked away in remote places, our family safaris in Tanzania are made for freedom and flexibility. There’s space to slow down, room for adventure, and the wild right outside to keep it all real.

Stories that stay

Elephants gathered at the river. Lions in the shade, young baboons whose mischievous antics bring laughter; the sounds at night, eagerly discussed over morning tea. These moments become the stories you will tell for years.

Our family-friendly lodges & camps

Safari lodges

Our signature lodges occupy incredible wilderness locations. You have a choice of Entamanu on the Ngorongoro Crater rim, Sand Rivers in Nyerere, Greystoke in Mahale and Lamai overlooking the Serengeti. Each lodge location selected for its wild integrity and safari experience. To us, small is beautiful so our accommodation is designed to create a perfect balance between experience and environmental impact.

Bush camps

Our permanent bush camps are firm favourites amongst our own people. Kigelia in Ruaha, Kuro in Tarangire and Chada in Katavi all embody safari at its most authentic. Each accommodation offering simplicity without sacrificing comfort, positioned where wildlife dictates the daily rhythm.

Tented camps

Canvas walls allow natural sounds to filter through—water birds calling from nearby rivers, or the symphony of lion calls through the night. A night under canvas is something truly special. These are simply about location, either moving seasonally to follow the migration herds or every couple of days on a multi-day walking safari.

Private houses and exclusive camps

Our private safari properties—from Mkombe’s House in the Serengeti to Entamanu Private positioned on the Ngorongoro Crater rim—offer dedicated spaces where families and groups can experience Tanzania at their own pace.
