Write a User ReviewThere is bountiful wildlife in Mikumi. The fact that it is so easy to get to from Dar is both a plus and a minus.

It's more a wide and open park, compared to Ruaha - and Arusha National park the scenery is not so beautiful and surprising.

Always Enjoy Mikumi, it's a great way to start the safari tours, depends on which time of year you go as to how many animals seen. We always go September/Oct., they seem the best times as the water holes are visited more.

An excellent tour with Mnyau M. Abi
We booked our tour with Mr. Mnyau M. Abi (0686085022) from Das Es Salaam and went there by bus. Mr. Abi waited for us at the bus station and from that moment we were in very safe hands. With him we went to the national park where we made very beautifull pictures because he drew very near at the animals (even the lions). Also he knew the answers to alle our questions on the park. In the park where only 3 other cars and there were very many young animals. The next day we went to the Sanje waterfalls in Udzungwa Mountains National Park. At the top of te waterfalls we had an excellent vieuw and saw the rare apes. Mr. Abi took care of our breakfest, lunch and accommadation (of course after which we made clear our desires) and even took care that we got the tickets and the right bus back to Dar (he got the faretickets which we could not get at the bus station). It was for me and my wife a very relaxed tour in which we saw and experienced more than we had expected.
Perfect
An experience of a lifetime, one we will never forget and Yes as Arnie would say "We'll be Back"

This park has the usual range of African wildlife - lions, elephants, giraffes, and so on. Unusually, the (unserviced) camp sites are unfenced, so think twice before venturing out of your tent at night! There are also more luxurious accommodation options for the less brave. The park is large and not commonly visited, so you may well have the place to yourself - a nice change from some of Tanzania's busier parks.
