An experience we will never forget

A fantastic experience in Mikumi with our guide Nuhu. He knew all about wildlife and birds. We learned a lot. We saw the elephants, zebras, antelopes, Giraffes, monkeys, puumba, buffalo, hippon, lions and several beautiful birds. All transport worked great. We went by train to Morogoro which was nice, when we arrived we got food and later a visit to a Maasai village where we got lots of information about the Maasai lives. (Take the opportunity to buy handicrafts from the Maasai women) The second day we left early and came home late after a fantastic day in Mikumi National Park, lunch in the park. On the third day it was time to travel to Zanzibar by train and ferry. It was nice that the driver was waiting for us outside the ferry even though we were delayed and on to our accommodation in Jambiani.

hank you, AnnElisabeth_S, for sharing such a wonderful and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear that your 3-day Mikumi Safari experience was unforgettable. It’s fantastic that Nuhu’s knowledge of wildlife and birds made the journey even more special, and that you were able to see such an amazing variety of animals — from elephants and lions to hippos and beautiful birds. We’re also glad everything ran smoothly with the train, ferry, and transfers, and that you enjoyed visiting the Maasai village and learning about their culture. Your kind words truly mean a lot. Thank you again for choosing this safari experience and for taking the time to share your memories. We hope to welcome you back to Tanzania one day! 🌿🦁
