The 3-Day Mikumi Safari takes you to Mikumi National Park, one of Tanzania’s most accessible parks, located just about 300 km from Dar es Salaam. This park is a fantastic spot for seeing wildlife, including elephants, zebras, lions, and many birds. You can expect to enjoy beautiful landscapes that include vast savannahs, grassy plains, and hills. Each day brings new adventures as you explore the park, take guided game drives, and experience the magic of Tanzania’s wildlife.
Day 1: Transfer from Dar es Salaam to Mikumi National Park then Half-Day Game Drive
Start your adventure with a pick-up from your accommodation in Dar es Salaam around 6:00 AM. It takes about 4 to 5 hours to reach Mikumi National Park, arriving around 10:00 AM. After checking into your lodge or camp, enjoy a short break before heading out for an afternoon game drive at 2:00 PM. Look for elephants, lions, giraffes, and other wildlife as you explore the park’s beauty.
Begin your day with breakfast at your lodge before setting out for a full day of exploring Mikumi National Park. Drive through various areas to see animals like lions, leopards, and wildebeests while enjoying a picnic lunch in the park.
Start your final day with an early breakfast before heading out for a morning game drive. This is the best time to see animals as they are more active in the cooler morning hours. Look for any wildlife you may have missed and capture stunning photos. Late in the morning after the game drive, return to your lodge for check-out and enjoy a leisurely final meal before departing to Dar es salaam.
