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.

Time: 1 night minimum, up to 3 nights
Animals: Lions, Zebra, Wildebeest, Impala, Buffalo, Crocodile, Elephants, Giraffe, 400 Bird Species, Eland, Greater Kudu and Sable Antelope.

“Every detail was covered and questions and concerns were answered and addressed. This made for an amazing experience.
Casey was so helpful in the planning part, really made it easy for us. Once there, Fulgence took over and we were in excellent hands. We had such a fabulous, fun, informative and impactful trip. We could not have done it without the full A2T team. Wilfred was also great on last day in Arusha. You had us so well taken care of!!”
