Terrible service…abandoned at Dar es Salem airport.
Totally abandoned at Dar es Salem airport. Poor communication and terrible service. I was wary as I was contacted before I left the UK asking me to cancel the tour I had booked with them via a UK operator and obtain a refund a book direct with them. Despite raising concerns at this request I was assured all was ok….unfortunately not! I spent a stressful 7 hours at the airport before being collected by another operator. I have given EnRoute the opportunity to respond to me before posting this review. They haven’t even bothered to reply. Terrible service which made for a very stressful start to what should have been a trip of a lifetime.

Cheerful and friendly guide
We cherished our Safari with our guide Amani. He made our experience as remarkable as it has been. He is client driven - continuously guaranteeing we were cheerful and any conceivable need was satisfied. He has a great deal of information about the people, culture and region. He was really cordial, positive and makes a special effort to help individuals. 10/10 would recommend doing your tour with Amani when you book with Enroute Africa.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for a great review our team is always dedicated to bring you the best of premium service, thank you for recommending us Cheers

Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dar es Salaam.
How much does Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $750 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 Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 72 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 Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 4 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 Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour?
+
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 Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour?
+
Around 1 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 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour 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.
What is included in Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour?
+
Included: Private transportation; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; Dinner; and Breakfast. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 131 listed pickup locations in and around Dar es Salaam. Be ready about 40 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Mikumi National Park 3 Day Tour?
+

+
