a great experience and highly recommended
We went on a 2-day, 1 night safari to Mikumi National Park, from Friday 17 to Saturday 18 July 2026, starting in Dar es Salaam. Fast response by owner via Whatsapp on quotation and enquiries. All staff part of the journey were helpful and on time and could be contacted through Whatsapp as well. All ticketing incl. train from Dar es Salaam to Morogoro was arranged beforehand by the team. Payment 20% deposit up front, could be paid by online link using your creditcard/ideal (using wetravel.com). 80% upon arrival at hotel (debit/creditcard). Journey as follows: Pickup from hotel, drop off at train, pick up from train to the entrance of the National Park where they arranged our permits after which we were brought to hotel (Mikumi wildlife lodge) for lunch. After lunch we left for our afternoon safari. Followed by dinner (buffet and bbq) back in the hotel. In the early morning another safari and after breakfast returning to Dar es Salaam by car/train. Train experiences were pleasant, clean trains, takes about 1.5 hours, drive from train to the entrance of the National Park after about 2.5 hrs. Make sure to be at the train station about 30 minutes in advance as there will be some checks along the way, luggage through scanner, weighing of luggage (20 kg/person) checking of passport and matching names on tickets. The recently opened Mikumi Wildlife Lodge is highly recommended, beautiful hotel and great location with superb views, upon arrival we were lucky spotting an elephant just walking away from a large natural pond. Very friendly and helpfull staff, especially the manager who regularly checked up with us to check whether everything was ok. Food was good (but admittingly not great). Both safaris were great (each about 3 hrs), for most of the group of 4 our first safari. We saw most of the wildlife up close (lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes but also babboons (look for them at the entrance), impala's, boars and hippos). No rhinos there and we didn't see the leopards. The most special encounter was when we ran into 10 lions who were resting after having finished eating an impala. Tip: spot the vultures and you will be close to where the action has been. All in all a great experience and highly recommended.

Our guide Benson gave one advice before we started the safari:[ Don’t worry about what you will or will not see. Nature is a therapy - just leave yourself to nature and enjoy the moment] We started with this in mind and yet got to see all we wished for up close . Was a wondeful trip, once in a lifetime one . Thanks Benson , see you again !!!

2 Days 1 Night Mikumi National Park From Dar es salaam by (SGR): 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 by (SGR) cost?
+
Prices start at $500 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 by (SGR) 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 by (SGR) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 17 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 by (SGR)?
+
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 by (SGR) 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 by (SGR)?
+
Around 6 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 by (SGR) 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.
