A safari tour where everything is offered - The guides Robert and Armani are highly recommended. They tell you all sorts of things about the animals, the behavior, eating habits, how to distinguish between males and females and much more. Thanks to the two of them, we saw all the animals there are to see here, and up close. The food was also delicious and the conversations with the guides were fantastic. If you have never done a safari before, then here is the best stop.

Worth it! - Robert was a great guide and driver. We have always felt safe. All “Must see” were there. Starting with elephants right next to the road, antelopes, crocodiles, hippos, wildebeest, zebras, giraffes and buffalo. We were even lucky enough to see lions. Robert explained a lot about all the animals. All around a great experience!

Mikumi safari 3 days - Safari was Perfect. Our guide - Robert was extremely nice, always trying to find better points of view, was always on time and in connect with other guides to ensure we can see all the Animals. He was sharing his knowledge and experiece, always ready to answer any questions. The only thing which was average was accommodation. Missing Water at shower or very long waiting time for meals (almost 2 hours for 2 pizza) is unacceptable. We felt like camping on the accommodation lodge. Staff is also barely speaking English. Food was also strange - we ordered 2 times Margherita pizza and 2 times IT was totally difderent (once was perfect, second time I would rate it 2/5).
