Intro
1 til 6 voksne - 6 dager Selous - Mikumi

This trip take you from Dar es Salaam to Selous Game reserve. A 5 – 6 hours’ drive in to the wild bush, along with the mysterious waters of the mighty Rufiji River. The park is bushy with lots of small lakes and some open areas. After 3 days, you move onwards, over the Uluguru Mountains to the farming town called Morogoro and then onwards to Mikumi National Park. The trip will easily take you 8 hours, and is very interesting and full of traditional Tanzanian life to look at while driving. Mikumi – also known as “little Serengeti” is a park with lots of animals, well developed roads and the open flood plains give you a great view of the animals.

Recommendation:
If you are continuing your trip to Zanzibar we advise to fly over to Zanzibar.

Program

Dag 1

We pick you at your house/hotel in Dar es Salaam and head out of time by daybreak. A five hours’ drive will take you to Selous Game Reserve, Africa’s largest protected wildlife area. As you arrive the mighty Rufiji River we will park the cars by the river bank and place your luggage in the boat for the transfer over to the other side of the river. Lunch will be prepared, but you may want to check in first before you can relax with a tasty lunch overlooking the river. In the afternoon, we take you for a boat safari, up the river to find the hippopotamus, crocodiles, birds and nests in the river wall. You may also see the local fishermen swimming in the river, or the ladies doing laundry while the children are taking a bath. The boat safari has been called; romantic, exciting, relaxing and even amazing as the hippopotamus is very photogenic and the sunset is painting the skies in the brightest romantic colors.

Destination: Selous Game Reserve
Accommodation: Selous Wilderness Camp/Rufiji River Camp/Lake Manze

Dag 2

Today you enjoy a full day of safari in Selous Game Reserve, the land of the elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, antelopes as well as lions and other predators. This area is more than 50 km2, that is larger than Belgium. A UNESCO world heritage site, Selous gives you extraordinary possibilities for wildlife experiences. Since Selous is a game reserve (not a national park), we have the options of following the herds of animals outside the roads, into their natural habitats which give you the best chance for getting you the “million dollars” picture. You will return to the lodge before the sun sets. At the lodge, you can enjoy some snack around the fire as you watch the sun setting over the mighty Rufiji River. You will be served a delicious dinner before you go back to your tent/bungalow.

You start in the morning after a delicious breakfast and head out in the bush with your packed lunch. In the evening, you can cool down in the pool, or just enjoy the sun setting on the other side of the river. In the evening, you can enjoy the safari stories around the fire or you can just relax in the cozy sitting area before you enjoy a tasty dinner.

Dag 3

Before breakfast you take some tea or coffee and some fruits before heading in to the woods by foot. Together with a guide and an armed ranger you will explore the nature and the smaller habitants in the bush of Selous. This exciting morning, you will be working up an appetite and as you return to the lodge they will have prepared a solid breakfast for you to enjoy. Today you will enjoy a full day game drive in Selous Game Reserve.

Dag 4

Today you will check out of the lodge and start your drive to Morogoro, a village at the foot of the intriguing Uluguru Mountains. On the way, you will drive through Selous Game Reserve, passing a lot of agriculture villages before you start an adventurous climb up in the mountain, through the rain forest and down to Morogoro and onwards to Mikumi National Park. In the afternoon, you go for an afternoon game drive to get to know Mikumi before dinner and another good night’s sleep in the wild! The savannah inside the park allow your eyes to spot wildlife from a great distance, giving you wonderful pictures either for your camera, or forever embedded in your memory. Many of Mikumi’s animals are used to visitors on two legs or four tires, so here you’ll have the opportunity to meet species like elephant, giraffe, wildebeest, and antelopes and if lucky, predators like lion and leopard.

Destination: Mikumi National Park
Accommodation: Mikumi Wildlife Camp/Vuma Hills

Dag 5

Full day Game drive in Mikumi National Park. If you wish one of the days, you can go for a hike in Udzungwa National Park. It is about 1,5 – 2 hours’ drive each way, and about 3-6 hours hike in the rain forest, depending on which route you like to go. Alternatively, you spend the full day in Mikumi with the animals.

Accommodation: Mikumi Wildlife Camp/Vuma Hills

Dag 6

This day you start early in the morning with some fruits, biscuits and some coffee or tea before you head back into the wild before even the birds wake up. This is the best chance to find the nocturnal animals, and some people may be lucky enough to find them “in action” hunting or eating at these hours. Around eight or nine you go back to the lodge for breakfast (if you did not bring it with you). After breakfast, you go back into the wild for a couple of hours before you head back to Dar es Salaam. You must leave Mikumi National Park at midday to be back in Dar es Salaam before dark.
