The Serengeti of the South
Mikumi National Park is the sheer accessibility and open vistas. Often compared to the Serengeti, it offers wide horizons and abundant wildlife sightings within a short drive from Dar es Salaam.
The dry season from late June to October is the most popular time as vegetation is thinner and animals concentrate around waterholes.
See herds of buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, and impala roaming the open grasslands. Elephants and giraffes are commonly seen under acacia trees.
Day game drives and guided walking safaris. It is perfect for a weekend getaway or a short safari extension.
