Why You Should Visit Mikumi National Park

With Crossroots Heritage Tours – Travel the Past

If you’re seeking a true Tanzanian safari that’s accessible, scenic, and full of wildlife, Mikumi National Park is the perfect destination. Located just a few hours from Dar es Salaam, Mikumi offers the essence of the African wilderness without the crowds.

1. Abundant Wildlife in Easy Reach

Mikumi is home to elephants, lions, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, and over 400 bird species. The open Mkata Floodplain offers clear, breathtaking views of animals in their natural habitat — often just meters from your vehicle.

2. A Mini-Serengeti Experience

Known as the “Little Serengeti,” Mikumi’s landscapes resemble Tanzania’s great northern parks — vast savannas dotted with acacia trees and backed by the Uluguru and Udzungwa Mountains. It’s a photographer’s dream and an ideal destination for first-time safari-goers.
