Mikumi National Park
Description: Mikumi, transected by the surfaced road from Dar es Salaam to Iringa is the most accessible park in the Southern circuit. The centerpiece of Mikumi is the abundant wildlife of the Mkata Floodplains that draw frequent comparisons to the more famous Serengeti Plains. Lions survey their grassy kingdom – and the zebra, wildebeest, impala and buffalo herds that migrate across it – from the flattened tops of termite mounds. It is perhaps the most reliable place in Tanzania to view the eland, the world’s largest antelope.

“We were very pleased with our guide (Said) and with the company. We had a lot of laughs and saw many wonderful and beautiful things and most of all the wildlife was spectacular. The entire tour was well planned and the lodging was 4 star+. The Farm House was absolutely great. Kiota camp was beautiful and everyone was so very nice. Every place we stayed the people were most accommodating and friendly. Thank you A2T for your guidance and for a very special out of the ordinary vacation.”
