4 Days Mikumi & Udzungwa National Parks Safari





Description
This 4-days Safari has been designed to take you to Mikumi then Udzungwa, but will offer you more time in the Mikumi to see the wildlife. Mikumi is the 4th Largest National park in Tanzania and it guarantees wildlife sightings. Most people visit Mikumi National Park aiming to spot the ‘Big Five’ (cheetah, lion, elephant, buffalo, and rhino), and they are always not disappointed. Hippo pools provide close access to the mud-loving beasts, and bird-watching along the waterways is particularly rewarding. Udzungwa is the largest and with most biodiversity and a chain of a dozen large forest-swathed mountains that rise majestically from the flat coastal scrub of eastern Tanzania. Known collectively as the Eastern Arc Mountains, this archipelago of isolated massifs has also been dubbed as the African Galapagos for its treasure-trove of endemic plants and animals, most familiarly being the delicate African violet.

This 4 day safari was one of the best experiences of my life. In Mikumi National Park, we saw elephants, lions, giraffes and buffaloes from close quarters. Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, explaining the behavior of each animal to us. Reaching Sanje Waterfalls by trekking in Udzungwa was a great adventure - the water of the waterfall and the call of the birds on the mountain created a strange feeling. Accommodations were very clean, and the food was excellent.

Beautiful trip to Mikumi. Our guide Halfany was really a great guy, we see all the animals we could imagine, wonderful ! Each activities was suited to our needs, and the food was delicious most of the time. The organization was on point, from hotel pick up in Zanzibar to plane booking to Mikumi (also lodge). Great experience.
Great safari! The 4 days organization by our guide was well done (airport pick-up, meals, accommodation), our guide Francis was always listening to our questions. Many thanks to Francis for these 4 incredible days.
Fantastic trip and great customer service from Paul prior to the trip. Saw numerous animals on safari- lions, cheetahs, crocs, impala, elephants, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, hippos and our guide Francis was thoughtful and kind and made sure we had the best time! Cool and refreshing waterfall hike and informative visit to a Masai village. Safari lodge was basic but clean and tasty food- campfire every night was a special touch. Icing on the cake was a lion who crossed in front of our van as we drove away from the park back to the airport! Highly recommend.
I did my 1 trip to MtUdzungwa found in Moro since I visted I always found myself heading back this gem without hesitation.
The organization of this trip went smooth and without problems. They took care of the domestic flights as well as any other transportation needed. The Safari itself was outstanding and we saw a lot of animals upclose. Truly an amazing experiance overall.
We went for the Mikumi Safari with our guide Gaston in January. The flight from and to Zanzibar were included and the journey from the airport to Mikumi while quite long wasn't boring at all because there's a lot going on on the side of the road : local cities, landscape and even animals. Once there, we stayed at the great and peaceful hotel Camp Bastian : very tasty food buffet, pool, bar and facilities. We spent a full day in Mikumi Park for the Safari where we had the opportunity to see all the animals this region has, what an experience ! Lions, leopards, elephants, giraffes, antilopes, gnus, monkeys, buffalos, hippos... The following day we went for a hike in the mountains, a couple hours drive away from our staying point. We chose a medium difficulty climbing out of 3 circuits proposed. We learnt many things about local trees and how they're useful to the population but while the climbing was kind of tiring, we forgot everything when we had the privilege to see those 3 waterfalls and the nature surrounding. Breathtaking experience. Our guide Gaston was friendly and knowledgable. We liked chatting with him and to this day, we are still in touch via WhatsApp or Instagram. He made the whole experience even better as he is nice, calm and likes his job. This whole trip was a great highlight to our 14 days Zanzibar stay.
