Memorable Weekend in Mikumi National Park
I booked the 2-day Mikumi NP and Bush Walking tour with Kihindo Safaris as I wanted to make the most out of the short time I had available. The Kihindo team took good care of me from beginning to end. I was picked up directly at the airport and brought to the Dar es Salaam train station from where (only since a couple of months ago) a comfortable direct train brings you to Morogoro. From there my guide Saloniki picked me up and we went straight to Mikumi National Park. First day included the "game drive" where we saw a great variety of animals like elephants, giraffes and lions. Saloniki and his partner Jaxon were very knowledgeable and you could ask them anything. The Camp Bastian where you stay overnight is a comfortable accomodation with a relaxed atmosphere. On Day 2 during the walking safari you get to know further plants, birds as well as the Maasai culture - our Maasai guide Melemi was very kind and knowledgeable, too. The visit of a Maasai village is a great experience for everyone who wants to get to know the culture better. The whole tour ends with a visit of a farm where you can see snakes, turtles and crocodiles. Afterwards I was brought back to Morogoro where we had a final lunch before the train ride back to Dar.
All in all, the two days are filled with exciting program points and I can recommend the tour to anyone looking for a 2-day package that does not only include "game drives" but also a bit of hiking/exploring and getting to know the Maasai culture.
I can recommend the tour also for solo travellers as your guide (in my case: Saloniki) stays with you during the two days, takes care of all organisational matters and is available for any questions that might appear.

Kihindo safaris: Unbeatable
My husband and I just went on a 5-day safari with Kihindo Safari, on the Mikumi & Ruaha tour. I have no words to describe the experience. First of all, the face of the company Winnie. From the first contact you make with her, she will always answer you instantly, always recommending the best for you and always attentive to what you need. Then, speaking of the safari, I can only continue to express how well this company has everything organized. Our guide William would not have been the same for us without him, always attentive to what we needed at every moment. He has been part of our trip, talking during the hours of driving, looking for all the animals for us, teaching me with my Swahili classes and teaching us many things about the animals and the culture of the country; we will always carry him in our memory of this trip. Inocent was our support guide in Ruaha, I can't think of anyone who knows more about that park than him, a wonderful guide too, who tried to connect with us at all times. I only have good words for all of them. I will definitely return and return to kihindo safaris 🩵🩵

Very competent, knowledgeable and kind!
We had the most amazing day with Kihindo Safaris in Mikumi National Park!! The communication was great with Winnie beforehand as she organised everything for us. They picked us up straight from our accommodation which was so easy and convenient! The train ride was also very smooth, but do remember to NOT bring any snacks or water with you, as they are not allowed on the train to Morogoro.
We were then picked up by our guide for the day, Saloniki, by the train station. The drive was only about 1h50 to the park. When we got there we met our driver Jackson and started our game drive through the park. We got very lucky with all the animals that day, and part of that is because of both Saloniki and Jackson being amazing guides for us!
Water, lunch (with soda) is included which was super nice.
Couldn’t recommend more!!

Excellent
We Started on May looking for a travel agency to receive some quote for our private safari. We had done a safari private in 2018 and 2019 in Tanzania visiting Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire but this time We would to visit the parks of sud Tanzania.
We received some quote from some agengy but the first who wrote to us also a whatsapp and follow us in our request very rapid it Was Winnie from kihindo Tours and Safaris.
We asked a lot of changings to find the right compromise with our budget.
When we reached The airport in Dar es salam We met Winnie and Willy (our Guide and driver) We started for our private safari and at the beginig everithing went going well.
First Park, Mikumi, second Ruaha, in the second park we got stuck for mud for 2 hour (it was raining season) but our guide was very smart, keep calm and solved a problem with help of ranger's park.
We changed our plan about the 3 park (Nyerere) because we knew that it was very difficult to drive about raining.
We asked to Winnie by whatsapp if was possible and in a bit time we find the good solution to us, so we came back to Mikumi National park.
It was the right choise, the safari was execellent, we saw a lot of animals and birds and our Guide was very smart, brilliant. We can say for sure Thanks to Willy if we saw a lot of animals, includind Lions and Leopards. (that we Know are very very difficult to see)
Thanks a lot to Kihindo, Winnie, Danfor and Willy.
We can say for sure that if we came back to Tanzania, we already know wich will be our safari's agency.
Thanks a lot

Very knowledgeable, accommodatinh and made our experience worth remembering
We had a very good experience with Kihindo Tours and Safaris. The quote is very worth it - transfer, accommodiation, itinerary, and the driver himself. Michael made sure our journey is very worth it. He is very engaging to describe our tour starting from the city, regions, tribe, streets, up to the safari park.

An excellent Tanzanian adventure host.
My wife and I went on an overnight trip to Mikumi with Kihindo Tours and it was awesome! Our guide, William, was excellent. He shared his passion and knowledge for the wildlife. He also went above and beyond for us both at the park and along the commute from Dar es Salaam. Winnie from the office was equally stellar. She provided multiple options for our safari, and overall I was very impressed and happy with my experience. Asante sana!
