ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE

Five Days in the Wild

Our Mikumi 5 Days Safari is perfect for travelers who want more time to explore Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes without committing to a long northern-circuit safari.

Travel from Dar es Salaam towards Mikumi National Park and spend four nights close to the wilderness. With more time inside the park, you have excellent opportunities to enjoy morning and afternoon game drives and observe wildlife in different conditions.

Your experienced safari guide will help you discover elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, wildebeest, hippos, impalas and, with luck, lions and other predators.
