2-Night Mikumi National Park Safari from Dar es Salaam

Our guide, Anthony, was incredible. He was very knowledgeable and personable, and had an eagle eye for spotting animals, including all four of the big five they have at Mikumi. The park is gorgeous and staying in the lodge right in the center of everything was incredible - we woke up to three elephants hanging out about five feet away from our room and could hear the lions roaring at night. They set up a fire pit for us and we had a great time talking to some of the staff. The only reason this isn't five stars is because it isn't really a 3-day tour, unless they pick you up from the airport early in the morning and take you right to the park. We arrived late Friday night so Anthony picked us up and brought us to the Transit Motel by the airport and that was it. That was day one of our tour. So we really only had two days in the park and a lot of that was taken up by driving there and back.
