Mikumi Wildlife Camp
Located right at the park gate this is the oldest established camp in Mikumi currently operational. Panoramic views and has obviously become a second home for some of the elephants of the park.
THE ACCOMMODATION
12 stone cottages with en suite toilet/shower and large shaded verandahs overlooking waterholes. The real bonus here is that every cottage has a ‘guest room’ attached which makes this an excellent choice for families.
THE FACILITIES
The central dining rondavel is elevated and provides great views of the wildlife attracted to the camp’s waterholes. There is also a decent sized swimming pool and observation deck. Best of all there is a euphemistically titled ‘cocktail bar’ in the camp.
THE SAFARIS
Game drives in Mikumi National Park
THE VERDICT
One of the best family safari camps in Tanzania. A little bit quirky, service can be unpredictable, elephants may drink from the pool but a great place to stay as always something to talk about.
