Enjoy Mikumi Wildlife Drives and a Comfortable Midrange Lodge in Tanzania Southern Circuit

Combine guided wildlife viewing with comfortable midrange lodge accommodation on this three-day Mikumi safari. Travel by SGR from Dar es Salaam to Morogoro, then transfer by 4x4 to the national park. Explore the Mkata Floodplain, enjoy morning and afternoon game drives, and return to your lodge each evening before travelling back to Dar es Salaam by SGR.

Day by day Itinerary

Day 1: SGR Journey, Road Transfer and Lodge Check-In

SGR Journey, Road Transfer and Lodge Check-In

Time: Train according to timetable; afternoon game drive approximately 3:00–6:00 PM.

Activities: Rail journey, road transfer, lodge check-in and afternoon game drive.

Attractions: Mikumi's savannah, wildlife habitats and scenic plains.

Transport: SGR and 4x4 safari vehicle.

Take the SGR train from Dar es Salaam to Morogoro and meet your driver-guide for the transfer to Mikumi National Park. On arrival, check in at your midrange lodge and enjoy lunch according to the schedule. Head out for an afternoon game drive to explore the park's landscapes and search for wildlife. Return to the lodge for dinner, relaxation and an overnight stay in comfortable accommodation. The journey is planned around the confirmed SGR timetable, so the exact arrival time and length of the afternoon activity may vary. On arrival, your driver-guide will coordinate the road transfer and explain the plan for the day before you enter the park or settle into the lodge. Keep your camera ready during wildlife viewing, and follow the guide's advice about safe distances and behaviour around animals. The first game drive is a gentle introduction to Mikumi's landscapes and helps set the scene for the following full day in the park. Dinner and overnight arrangements will be provided according to the confirmed midrange package and lodge availability.

Day 2: Full-Day Game Drive and Lodge Relaxation

Full-Day Game Drive and Lodge Relaxation

Time: Approximately 7:00 AM–5:00 PM.

Activities: Full-day game drive, wildlife photography, birdwatching and picnic lunch.

Attractions: Mkata Floodplain, accessible Hippo Pool viewpoint and surrounding wildlife areas.

Transport: 4x4 safari vehicle.

After breakfast, explore the Mkata Floodplain and other accessible wildlife habitats on a full-day game drive. Look for elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and other species while enjoying time for photography and interpretation from your guide. Stop for a picnic lunch during the safari and visit the Hippo Pool viewpoint where accessible. Return to your lodge in the late afternoon to relax before dinner and another overnight stay. The route and viewing stops will depend on park conditions, wildlife movements, and the time available on the day. Your guide will help identify animals and birds while explaining how the savannah, floodplain, and woodland habitats support different species. Allow time for unhurried observation as well as photographs, rather than rushing from one sighting to another. A picnic lunch is planned during the safari where included, giving you more time in the park before continuing the afternoon drive. The Hippo Pool viewpoint is visited only if it is accessible and conditions permit; sightings of particular animals can never be guaranteed. Return to the lodge later in the day for dinner and rest before the journey back to Dar es Salaam.

Day 3: Morning Wildlife Drive and Return Journey

Morning Wildlife Drive and Return Journey

Time: Approximately 6:00–8:00 AM if the SGR schedule permits.

Activities: Optional sunrise drive, breakfast, checkout and road transfer.

Attractions: Early wildlife viewing and the scenic landscapes of Mikumi.

Transport: 4x4 to Morogoro, then SGR to Dar es Salaam.

Enjoy an early game drive if your train departure allows enough time. Return to the lodge for breakfast and checkout before travelling by 4x4 to Morogoro station. Board your confirmed SGR train to Dar es Salaam. The lodge name, room category, meal plan and included amenities should be specified in the final quotation so customers understand exactly what their midrange package includes. The morning plan must be checked against the confirmed SGR departure so that the road transfer to Morogoro is not rushed. If the train timetable leaves enough time and the park arrangements allow it, an early game drive can provide another opportunity to look for wildlife. If there is not enough time for a game drive, enjoy breakfast at the lodge and proceed directly with checkout and the transfer. Your driver-guide will take you by road to Morogoro railway station, where you will board the confirmed SGR service to Dar es Salaam. Please confirm train tickets, transfer arrangements, and the final meal plan before travel, as these details affect the schedule. The safari ends on arrival in Dar es Salaam; an additional overnight stay is not included unless it is specifically booked.

Mikumi Natinal Park
