Arrival at Mikumi National Park should happen between 12 and 2 pm. You can either dive into a hot lunch right there in the park or, if you're up for it, grab a lunch box to munch on while we continue our journey. Just give us a heads-up on your lunch style! After refueling, it's game drive time. At around 5:30 pm, we'll start making our way back to the lodge.

By 6 pm, you'll be back at your hotel. Treat yourself to a nice, refreshing shower, savor some tasty grub, and kick back for a good night's sleep. Get ready – there's more adventure waiting for you tomorrow!

Maasai Boma Visit & Departure

Kick off your day with a cultural exploration at a local Maasai village in Mikumi. If time permits, we might swing by the bustling local women's market. The Maasai, a renowned traditional community in Tanzania and Kenya, offer a unique cultural experience. Remember that this village visit is optional, and if you're in a hurry to head back to Zanzibar, you can skip it. Just give us a heads-up when you make your booking.

Following the cultural adventure, your journey back to Dar es Salaam begins.

If you intend to catch the ferry to Zanzibar or have an international flight home, please let us know your departure time. This way, we can ensure your timely return.
