Our driver guide will meet you at your hotel in Dar Es Salaam, he will start with a short brief regarding your safari, and then you will leave for Mikumi National Park which lies at a six-hour drive from Dar Es Salaam, and it is Tanzania’s fourth largest national park. The open horizons and abundant wildlife draw frequent comparisons to the more famous Serengeti plains, but its location close to Tanzania’s largest city makes Mikumi easier accessible. The park has a great variety of animals: elephants, buffalos, zebras and giraffes are relatively easy to spot, as well as lions mating and many hippos in the resident hippo pool!
