What To Expect
Mikumi National Park
Mikumi National Park lies alongside the Northern border of Africa's biggest Game Reserve - the SELOUS – forming a unique ecosystem. The open horizons and abundant wildlife of the Mkata Floodplain, the fashionable centrepiece of Mikumi, draw frequent comparisons to the more famous Serengeti Plains. Some spotted lions survey their grassy kingdom, and the Zebra, Giraffes, Elephants, Wildebeest, Impala, and Buffalo herds migrate across the park. This tour starts from Zanzibar airport at 07h00 and arrives at Mikumi Airstrip at 08h00, received by our safari guide. Directly you will start a safari game drive touring the game-rich area of Mkata plains. The plain is very famous for its concentrations of wildlife. Also, visiting the famous Hippo pool whereby many come to drink water. Hot lunch during lunchtime then proceeds with your journey exploring the African bushes before returning to the airstrip at around 15h30 for your flight back to Zanzibar.

4.00The French-speaking guide is a real plus, it has provided a lot of explanations, which is very pleasant. During the day, we had the chance to see many animals: zebras, giraffes, lionesses, elephants... I think for a full-day Safari it’s good but there are more beautiful landscapes in other parks. I was shocked by the hippo pool which offers them little space and is not natural. And lunch is not qualitative.
Bad experience

1.00I'm still waiting for them... I waited for them 1h30, they didn't pick me up and without any explanation. I expected at least one message...

5.00In the description it was unclear whether Transfer&Flights were included - yes they are! We were picked up from Paje at 4.45am and were back around 7.00pm. The day trip was very worth it and it was a really great experience. Attention: You fly to Mikumi on a 12-seat propeller plane. We have seen zebras, lions, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos, antelopes, wild boars and wildebeest. At the beginning you get the impression you are in a kind of zoo with signs, but after about 20min you really drive into the wilderness. We felt very well looked after and it was all very well organized 👍🏼👍🏼
Super Guides👍😊

5.00We had a fantastic safari! Our driver Fidelis was incredibly friendly and very experienced. He told us a lot of interesting things about the animals and went to great lengths to find as many of them as possible for us – and he did that! It was an unforgettable experience, and I can highly recommend Fidelis. He knows exactly what he is doing and does his job with a lot of passion and heart. The only thing that didn’t work was that I booked a tour in German, but this was not available and so it was in English, but I only found out about this during the safari.
Perfect day
