Is a nice park to visit in a weekend from Dar es Salaam. But if you come in Tanzaniafor game viewing, you cannot lose other parks much more exciting.

The wildlife is good, but no different than many other parks in Tanzania. The location along the Great East Road makes it easily accessible for a quick game drive, but takes away some of the wildness of the remoter parks.

Great bang for your buck park and easy to access from Dar es Salaam. The highway passing through the park is strange, but for a budget price you are potentially able to see some predators and herds passing over from Selous.

Small park and not really my favorite spots. Wildlife can be scarce like birds. Beware of Tzetze flies

Great park, just feels a little bit like an open zoo.

Superb views and wildlife. It did feel a little bit like an open zoo as there were certain pathways to follow and not allowed offroad, even some well defined tracks were off limits. It made getting close to the animals to get a good pic difficult. However, there were a lot of animals and we were even lucky to see two lionesses on the road! We paid the tour operator so not sure how much it costs for entry. Worth it if you have limited time in Dar Es Salam as it can be done as a day tour opposed to 2-3 day tours for other parks.

Compared to Tarangire and Serengeti I can not give more than average to Mikumi. The tarmac road crossing the park also takes away some of the bush vibe.
