Early in the morning, transfer to Zanzibar Airport for your scheduled bush flight to Mikumi National Park. The flight provides spectacular aerial views over the Indian Ocean coastline, rural landscapes, rivers, and southern Tanzania wilderness before landing near the park.
Upon arrival, your professional safari guide will welcome you and begin your first game drive through the open plains of Mikumi. The park is famous for its accessible wildlife viewing and broad grassland scenery that supports a large concentration of animals throughout the year.
Wildlife commonly encountered includes lions, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, impalas, hippos, crocodiles, warthogs, and numerous bird species. Mikumi’s open terrain creates excellent visibility for photography and wildlife observation.
The afternoon safari explores different habitats including plains, acacia woodland, and water sources where wildlife gathers during warmer hours of the day.
After an early breakfast, enjoy a morning game drive in Mikumi National Park when predator and herbivore activity is often at its highest.
The morning safari focuses on tracking wildlife movement across the plains while exploring river systems and hippo pools that attract animals and birdlife throughout the day. Mikumi is especially rewarding for observing elephants and giraffes moving across open landscapes while lions are frequently seen resting near shaded areas.
After the safari experience, transfer to the airstrip for your scheduled return flight to Zanzibar Island marking the end of your southern Tanzania fly-in safari adventure.
