What to expect

Escape to Mikumi National Park on this one-day safari tour. Tucked between Dar es Salaam and the Selous Game Reserve, the park is all open plains, rolling hills, and scattered acacia trees – the ideal backdrop for your safari experience.

Your day kicks off with an early pick-up and a short flight to Mikumi. Once you land, your driver will be waiting to whisk you off on a full-day game drive. Keep your eyes peeled for elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo and maybe even lions or rare wild dogs. There’s plenty of birdlife, too – over 400 species call this place home.

Around midday, you’ll stop for a tasty buffet lunch before heading back out for more wildlife spotting. Predators like lions, leopards, and hyenas roam the park's grasslands, while crocodiles and hippos can be found in the park’s waterways as well. Then, as the afternoon winds down, you’ll head back to the airstrip for your return flight to Zanzibar.

What to remember

Know in advance:

  • We acknowledge the EU Air Safety List update restricting Tanzanian-registered air carriers from operating within EU airspace. This restriction is based on oversight concerns with the Tanzanian civil aviation authority, not necessarily the individual carriers' operational safety records. For our operations within Tanzanian airspace, selected Tanzanian partner carriers go through an internal safety risk assessment and audit process. Our established in-house oversight includes regular audits, operator performance reviews, and continuous monitoring to ensure compliance with our safety management system
  • Make sure to confirm your pick-up location and time directly with the local operator. You’ll find their contact info on your voucher once you’ve booked.
  • After booking, you'll need to send a copy of your passport to the local operator
  • The duration of the tour may vary due to weather and traffic conditions, the location of your hotel, and the flight operation.

Remember to bring:
