Comfortable Tanzania Safari Planning for Grandparents and Older Travelers

Older travelers may enjoy a Tanzania safari when transport, accommodation and daily schedules are selected according to their individual requirements.

Families should communicate mobility requirements before choosing accommodation.

If a traveler uses a wheelchair, walker or another mobility aid, vehicle compatibility and lodge access must be confirmed individually.

A safari cannot be assumed wheelchair accessible simply because wildlife viewing takes place from a vehicle.
