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.

“The trip organization by A2T was just wonderful. The safari expercience was fantastic. Our guide Said is a great guy, very professional and experienced.
We want to thank a lot Access2Tanzania team, specially Casey and Said, who made the experience even better. Thank A2T for all the attention and suggestions.
Ngorongoro/Manyara/Nudtu/Serengeti were absolutely great! The tips regarding money exchange, tipping, clothes, schedules etc. were also very accurate. Said exceeded our expectations. He was very patient and careful with Pedro (our 3yr old son), who liked him a lot, too.”
