7 Days Safari Mikumi and Ruaha

Safari Overview

This is a perfect safari combination to explore two of the southern national parks in Tanzania.

Mikumi National Park has a great variety of animals like the Big Five and the chance that you will encounter lions climbing up trees is higher here than in other parks! Ruaha National Park is not only the second-largest park but is probably home to more elephants than any other national park in East Africa.

This private safari offers you the flexibility to travel at your own pace, exactly the way you like it. You will have a private safari vehicle and guide.

The park has a great variety of animals: elephants, buffalos, zebras and giraffes are relatively easy to spot, as well as lions mating and many hippos in the resident hippo pool!
