The Selous and Mikumi safaris are classic safaris in Southern Tanzania. They start at Dar es Salaam, allowing guests an encounter with the rarest of African wildernesses, and take you to Greater Selous Ecosystem. Usually, this is done from a vehicle so that guests can enjoy the most authentic experience possible.
The journey will start from Dar es Salaam earlier in the morning, when our professional driver will pick you up and drive to Mikumi National Park. On arrival at Mikumi NP, you will learn how to make fire with sticks and more about the Maasai. You’ll also experience the places where most of them live, such as their traditions and customs. After the safari, head back to your camp for preparation so that you can get on with your next scheduled activities.
When you wake up in the morning, after breakfast, head out to Mikumi National Park. You’ll have a full day game view on that day and experience wonderful animals like lions, elands, and buffalo found here. In a nutshell, the Mikumi floodplain is the main feature of the park, bordering the mountain ranges. In the afternoon, you will spend time getting lunch and resting before advancing with a game drive until evening, when you will be back at the camp for preparation for the next schedule.
In the morning, after breakfast, you will be picked up from your Camp and driven to Nyerere National Park. There is a picnic lunch on the way. Afterwards, arrive there in the evening and embark on a boat safari, where you’ll spot hippos and crocodiles in their natural habitats. Meals and your overnight stay will be offered at the camp or lodge.
On this day after breakfast, from 7:30 am to evening, you will do a full game drive tour at Nyerere National Park, formerly known as Selous Game Reserve. The journey will start from the camp or lodge where you will be taken by our professional drivers and guides. On this day, you will get to enjoy various tourist attractions like animals, including elephants, zebra, giraffe, antelopes, and many more. Also, you will see birds and other landscape scenery with varied topography, including wetlands, dry grassland, light acacia forest, and higher ground with vast views of far-off mountains.
In the afternoon, you will have your packed lunch and some time to rest. Then continue with the game drive until evening, where you will return to camp or lodge for dinner and sleep, preparing for the last day.
On this day, you will get morning tea, then enjoy a walking tour in the forest, accompanied by an armed ranger. After the walking tour, you will get back to the lodge or camp for breakfast and prepare to drive back to Dar es Salaam.
