Day 1: Dar es Salaam to Mikumi National Park - Afternoon Game Drive

Begin your adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Dar es Salaam by a professional safari guide in a 4x4 safari vehicle. Enjoy a scenic drive through local villages and landscapes towards Mikumi National Park. A packed lunch will be provided en route to save time.

Upon arrival at Mikumi National Park, complete the necessary park entry formalities. Your guide will then take you to the designated campsite, either inside the park for a truly immersive experience or just outside for more facilities. Assist with setting up camp or settle into pre-erected tents, depending on the tour operator.

Embark on your first exciting game drive in Mikumi National Park. This park is home to a diverse array of wildlife, including elephants, lions, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, impalas, kudus, hartebeests, leopards, wild dogs, and hyenas. Mikumi also boasts over 400 species of birds, making it a paradise for birdwatchers.

Enjoy a freshly prepared dinner at the campsite under the African sky. The sounds of the bush will lull you to sleep in your tent.

Day 2: Mikumi National Park - Morning Game Drive - Return to Dar es Salaam

Wake up early for a sunrise game drive, a prime time to witness animal activity as they are most active before the heat of the day. You might see predators on the hunt or other unique animal behaviours.

Return to the campsite for a hearty breakfast. Afterwards, pack up the camping gear. Enjoy a final game drive as you exit the park, giving you another chance to spot any animals you might have missed. Begin your journey back to Dar es Salaam with packed lunch served en route.
