Mikumi National Park

Mikumi National Park is a hidden gem in the heart of Tanzania’s remarkable wilderness.  Mikumi National Park is one of the few places to see the renowned African Big Five: lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos. Mikumi National Park is home to iconic bird species, such as the African Fish Eagle, renowned for its distinctive call and majestic presence.

The best time to visit Mikumi National Park for wildlife viewing is during the dry season, from June to October, when animals congregate around waterholes, making them easier to spot. For birdwatching, the wet season from November to February is ideal, as the landscape becomes lush and green.
