Mikumi National Park, part of the larger Selous ecosystem, offers accessible wildlife viewing and stunning landscapes. The park is home to elephants, lions, buffalos, giraffes, zebras, and a rich variety of birdlife. The Mkata Floodplain is particularly rewarding for game drives, where large herds of animals can be seen against the backdrop of the Uluguru and Udzungwa Mountains. Mikumi’s proximity to Dar es Salaam makes it a convenient safari destination for those with limited time.
