Itinerary

Dar es Salaam to Mikumi Np

Mikumi

You’ll be picked up early in the morning from your hotel or airport in Dar es Salaam and drive to Mikumi National Park (about 5–6 hours). Arrive around midday and head straight into the park for your first game drive. Mikumi is known for its wide plains, often compared to the Serengeti, making wildlife easy to spot. Expect to see elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, and possibly lions.
