Simply Amazing!
An absolutely amazing experience. We booked this last minute and I have to say, I'm so glad we did! At the airport transfer it seemed complete chaos, but we boarded the little plane and landed on the airstrip. We immediately got into our jeep with 4 others and started our safari. Our driver was awesome, great knowledge, super friendly and made us feel very welcome. We saw a whole mixture of wildlife up close and personal. Giraffes, elephants and pumbas just walking next to you!. The first day was really tiring as we had a 4am collection time that morning. We had breakfast and lunch in the park, which was lovely. We arrived at the overnight accommodation which was a surprise, as the room was not how it was sold (double check yours as this happened to a few guests). Our room was swarmed with army ants and had quite a few issues. The management were brilliant and moved us to another room, so all good. The food at the lodge was great, so with full tummies we had a well earned rest. At 7am the next morning we started the 2nd day. By 9.30am we had discovered a small group of lions, just sleeping. Only a few feet away and totally not bothered by us one bit. We saw 19 different types of animals and birds over the 2 days. The photos were amazing. Side note, if you suffer from a bad back, you may need to rethink about booking as the roads are unlike any we've encountered and you are really thrown around in the jeep. Also make sure you have easy clothes to get in and out of as you need to wee in the bushes. It was such a fabulous experience, and you're looked after. Highly recommend:)

2 days 1 night safari
I am not eve sure where to start because everything was beyond perfect. The customer services was diamond for me. The entire team took extremely good care of me. I was traveling alone and Felicia was kind enough to take photos of me during the safari. Patrick the driver was phenomenal and extremely knowledgeable. He understand what was important to me and went above and beyond to endure that not only did I see but was left breathless. The office Staff very communicative and attentive to my questions and shared suggestions. Hamis the driver that pick me up from the airport and drive me all over was beyond amazing. During our drive he shared great information of the things I would see on the road. Great little stops and made sure he took me to places to get locally made things, took me try local coffee in the market in his hometown ( which is where the office is ) again beyond accommodating. I would highly suggest you book with them you’re not only going to get the perfect photos on this safari but you’re going to walk away knowing you were taken care of well. Oh and my accommodations at the luxury camp exceeded my expectations and the customer service at that camp increíble. Book with these guys , I promise you will be beyond satisfied

2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dar es Salaam.
How much does 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam cost?
+
Prices start at $670 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dar es Salaam usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dar es Salaam is not rushed.
Is 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 62 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dar es Salaam, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam?
+
Around 22 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dar es Salaam can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dar es Salaam and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park from Dar es salaam start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dar es Salaam within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dar es Salaam?
+
On Outty we rank every Dar es Salaam experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 2 nights 3 days safari to mikumi national park, 1-Day Mikumi National Park Fly-In Safari from Zanzibar, 3 Days Safari to Mikumi NP - Accommodation Inside the Park. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dar es Salaam?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dar es Salaam?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
