We offer a 2 days safari from Zanzibar with one overnight stay at a lodge of camp in Mikumi National Park. The safari starts with a short flight early in the morning from the Island of Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam where your safari guide will be ready and waiting to drive you to Mikumi National Park as early as possible in order to beat the traffic of Dar es Salaam. At Zanzibar we can arrange your airport transfer from your hotel but if you wish to find your way to the Zanzibar Airport, no problem just make your way to Zanzibar Airport where you will catch a flight that we have booked for you to Dar es Salaam. The flight leaves as early as 0630 Hrs arriving at Dar es Salaam at 07.00 hrs.
This 2 day last minute safari from Zanzibar is offered with overnight stay at the nice mid range lodging at Camp Bastian. However the same package can be offered while staying at upgraded mid range lodges and tented camps or standard luxury tented camps located inside the Mikumi National Park. Please request for free customization and advise.
Take a very early morning flight from Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam where you will be met by your safari guide. Your guide will meet you at the Dar es Salaam Airport and after assisting you with loading your luggage to your 4×4 safari jeep, you will start on your way to Mikumi National Park via the Dar es Salaam – Morogoro – Mbeya Highway. The drive from Dar es Salaam is a long drive that takes at least 5 – 6 hours depending on traffic so you will arrive in the early afternoon. As soon as you arrive at the Park’s Gate and after the quick paperwork, you will embark on your first game drives straightaway. With lunch taken at one of the picnic sites or at a Restaurant on the way to Mikumi, you will then spend the rest of the afternoon exploring the Mikumi National Park, hoping to see as much as possible in this same afternoon. Mikumi National Park is part of the Mkata Floods plains within the Greater Selous Ecosystem and the park is rich in wildlife and bird life alike. You expect to see baboons, giraffes, lots of impalas, gazelles, buffaloes, lions, elephants ,kudus, and many other large animals. In the late afternoon you will retire to a nice tented camp (or a budget rest house in the park) depending on your budget. Overnight at Camp Bastian. (Lunch and Dinner included)
