3 Days, 2 Nights Adventure to Mikumi National Park from Zanzibar

Your adventure begins early in the morning as you board a ferry from Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam. The two-hour ride offers stunning views of the turquoise Indian Ocean, with the bustling port city coming into view as you approach. Once in Dar es Salaam, a private car awaits to take you on a scenic 5–6-hour drive to Mikumi National Park. Along the way, you'll pass through charming villages and landscapes that transition from coastal plains to rolling hills. Arriving at Mikumi in the late afternoon, you'll check into your lodge or tented camp, where you can enjoy a peaceful evening surrounded by nature. Dinner is served under the stars, and the night sounds of the African wilderness lull you to sleep.

Rise early for a hearty breakfast before embarking on a full-day safari in Mikumi National Park. Known as the "Serengeti of the South," Mikumi boasts diverse wildlife and breathtaking landscapes. Spot elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes, and herds of buffalo as you explore the park's golden savannahs. The park is also home to vibrant birdlife and less common sightings like wild dogs and leopards. Your guide will share insights about the flora and fauna, enhancing your experience. Lunch is served picnic-style in the bush, adding to the adventure. As the sun sets, return to your accommodation for a relaxing evening and a delicious dinner.

On your final day, wake up to the sounds of the wild and set out for an early morning game drive. This is the perfect time to see predators like lions or leopards winding down from their nightly hunts and herbivores grazing in the soft morning light. After the safari, enjoy breakfast at your lodge before beginning the drive back to Dar es Salaam. You'll arrive in the bustling city by late afternoon, with enough time to catch your ferry back to Zanzibar.
