Tanzania Greystoke Mahale family safari

Itinerary overview – Tanzania chimpanzee safari

Over a period of 8 nights and 9 days, you’ll enjoy:

  • 1 night in Arusha,
  • 4 nights in the remote wilderness of Katavi National Park,
  • 3 nights in the Mahale Mountains

Activities included

On this fantastic luxury family safari holiday you’ll have the opportunity to experience trekking with chimpanzees, view the Big 5 (with the exception of rhino), and walk in true wilderness with an expert guide.

Pricing and considerations

This classic, ‘dry season’ itinerary is best enjoyed from July to October, as outside of these months Katavi is closed due to its remote nature and difficulty of access after the rains.

Our guide price for this itinerary is from £5,950 | $8,090 per person, based on a family of four travelling in green season.

All our luxury family safari holidays are designed on an individual basis, so the price will vary depending on time of year, activities, transport methods and choice of accommodation. The best way to start planning is to contact us.

Note – due to the remote nature of the camps and the age restrictions for chimpanzee trekking, we only recommend this safari for children aged 12 and over.
