Mikumi National Park

It's beautiful to have a wild experience. It would be great if they offer binoculars to tourists to observe the animals that are far away. Wild buffaloes, vultures, beautiful birds, zebras, etc.
Our guide was humble and explained a lot of the basics of wildlife.
I thought i would see more wildlife.
But it was a beautiful experience.

Amazing experience!!! We saw 4 of the big 5 as they say

We saw so many different animals and got lucky as they even came up to our vehicle! This is definitely worth every penny and the mini airplane ride that lands right on the dirt to the safari

You have to spent USD150 for the safari car + guide, and TNZ 1500/person for entrace ticket. It took 4 hours drive from Dar es Salaam. It would be nice if you stay at the cottage inside national park they also provide bbq for dinner and bonfire.

Adorable experience, we have seen so many animals. Air, nature - Tanzania is my ultimate love.

Very nice place with different animals, It's very large National park in Tanzania with different services like lodge hotel, food, car park. You can move around with your own car or by using Mikumi car. It's near the Morogoro road so there's no problem of travel.

It is really a nice place to be. Many animals and various, good guiders, best services.

Christmas Day Safari to Mikumi National Park.
Departed early morning @4am from DarEsSalaam arrived at the park entrance around 10am had a 4Hr game drive saw many game animals including 5lions, 20-30 Elephants, 200-300African Cape Buffalo & many more didn't see cheetah, leopard & wild dog.
Not the ideal time of the day to see many animals but the morning cloudy sky's helped us a bit.
Returned back to DarEsSalaam around 9pm.

What a wonderful pleace the wildlife is great and the Tanzania people are very kind swis tand hotel is the place to be to get a good saffari

My husband and I decided to book a private tour (just us two) to Mikumi National Park. We woke up at around 4:30 am at our hotel in Zanzibar and got picked up and taken to the airport in Zanzibar. We took a short one hour flight to Mikumi National Park with other people from the island that wanted to visit the mainland. We only had one day to see as many animals so my expectations weren't so high since typically people spend days going on Safari trips. I would highly recommend splurging on your own private tour because it is much more comfortable and you can choose how long you want to stay to see certain animals. It's much more flexible and relaxing. The guides were friendly and had a lot of insight about the animals. LUCKILY, we got to see a leopard, 2 prides, lions feeding on a zebra, an elephant with its baby, a nile croc, giraffes, etc. We were there such a short amount of time so I was lucky to see so much. I would recommend this safari for people who only have a limited of time and want to get the experience. Obviously not everyone is as lucky to see as many animals so just cross your fingers and try your luck :-)

Fantastic place with a lots of animals: lions, antilops, elephants, giraffes, zebras, gnus, monkeys…

First safari experience and we loved it. Unfortunately, we stayed only one day and we couldn't see all the animals.

We've booked a two day safari to mikumi Nationalpark with Novath Mtui Safari (+255 783 632 327) and everything went very well. Francis and Novath are very friendly guides and they told us so much about the animals. Novath knows all the spots where you can find the animals and has also a lot of knowledge. We felt very comfortable and would 100% recommend the tour. Asante sana :)

It was my first time at a real safari and it didn't disappoint! Given the option of which car and spent a while there making sure I was able to see multiple animals. Enjoyed every second of it!

Mukumi National Park it was great experience. Best come very early beacouse animals more active and you can see more of them. I went with my small children and they love it!

An unforgettable experience with a great guide. Definitely recommended!

At first we were very sceptical about one day tour from Zanzibar island to Mikumi safari park, but at the end it became a highlight of our vacation. We worried mostly will we have enough time to see animals, or will it be to tiring for one day, also April is a low season month is it even worth trying. Yes it's worth it! We woke up early, had driver to take us to airport, then we flew to Mikumi for approximately 45 min and landed straight at the park. As soon as we landed we could spot animals around. We were lucky to see soo many animals during 5 hours tour it was simply amazing and unforgettable. I would highly recommend taking this safari tour even for one day, we were mesmerised by nature and wild animals.

Whether it’s passing on the main road or inside the park itself, Mikumi is a sure Park for the Big 5 animals.

It's a lifetime experience. Enjoyed my safari
