4 days mikumi safari

Mikumi National Park is located north of the Selous Reserve, less than 300 km from Dar es Salaam. Because of its accessibility, it is one of the most popular parks in Tanzania and is an important centre for education where students go to study ecology and conservation. The Mikumi flood plain, with its open grasslands, dominates the park together with the mountain ranges that border the park on two sides. A wide range of wildlife inhabits its 3,230 sq km area. Lions are commonly seen as well as packs of wild dogs, rare elsewhere in Africa. Elephants may be encountered and other animals frequently observed are buffalo, civet, eland, giraffe, impala, kudu, reedbuck, warthog, waterbuck, wildebeest, zebra and Lichtenstein’s hartebeest.
