Detailed Itinerary
Day 1
Fly from Zanzibar to Mikumi – Evening Game Drive
Your journey begins with a smooth morning flight from Zanzibar. As you fly over the mainland, watch the landscape shift from coastal palms to the rugged Miombo woodlands. Upon landing at the Mikumi Airstrip, your Gnade Safaris guide will be waiting in a 4x4 land cruiser.
After a quick briefing, we dive into the wild. Mikumi is famous for its "Mkata Floodplain," where you can spot lions, giraffes, and elands. As the sun begins to set, the predators become more active. We will head to Camp Bastian Mikumi for a warm African welcome and a delicious dinner under the stars.
