Upon arrival, our professional guide and driver will welcome you and drive you toward Morogoro town, nestled at the foot of the Uluguru Mountains. Once there, you will enjoy a guided hiking experience in the Uluguru Mountains, famous for their lush landscapes, waterfalls, and panoramic views of Morogoro valley.

After an early breakfast, set out for a full-day game drive in Mikumi National Park. Known as “The Little Serengeti,” Mikumi offers open savannahs that attract an incredible range of wildlife. Expect to see elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffalos, wildebeests, impalas, and hippos, among many others. Your expert safari guide will take you to the best viewing areas, including the famous Mkata Floodplain and Hippo Pools, where you can watch wildlife gather to drink and cool off. Lunch will be served picnic-style inside the park to allow maximum time for game viewing. In the late afternoon, return to Camp Bastian to relax, swim, and enjoy dinner under the stars.
