2 Day Private Mikumi National Park Safari, Southern Tanzania
Tanzania Short Safari
Enjoy a short safari that takes you from Dar-es-Salaam on a drive over the Uluguru Mountains, to Mikumi for game viewing drive in the park. Mikumi National Park abuts the northern border of Africa’s biggest game reserve - the Selous - and is transected by the surfaced road between Dar es Salaam and Iringa. It is thus the most accessible part of a 75,000 square kilometre (47,000 square mile) tract of wilderness that stretches east almost as far as the Indian Ocean.

Location
Southern Tanzania
For many years, tourism in Tanzania was confined to either the northern game sanctuaries or along the coast. Recently, however, there has been a growth of interest in the southern circuit, which has large unexploited areas of beauty and wildlife to offer. Safaris to the south are becoming increasingly popular. The area’s isolation is in fact, part of its attraction. Those who wish to avoid the well-worn tourist routes head for Ruaha National Park, the Selous Game Reserve, or the Scenic southern highlands. Another advantage of using Dar-es-Salaam instead of Arusha as the base for an itinerary is the relatively easy access to the coast and islands.
