It's more a wide and open park, compared to Ruaha - and Arusha National park the scenery is not so beautiful and surprising.

This park has the usual range of African wildlife - lions, elephants, giraffes, and so on. Unusually, the (unserviced) camp sites are unfenced, so think twice before venturing out of your tent at night! There are also more luxurious accommodation options for the less brave. The park is large and not commonly visited, so you may well have the place to yourself - a nice change from some of Tanzania's busier parks.

To avoid the traffic jams of Ngorongoro and the other parks around Arusha, head further afield to Mikumi. I've visited twice and have seen only three other tourists there. Everyone there--rangers, hoteliers, tour guides--is more laid back and informal, they'll treat you more like a friend than a client. In addition to the animals (they've got them all), the drive down from Arusha via Dodoma or better yet via Iringa is a great experience.

There is bountiful wildlife in Mikumi. The fact that it is so easy to get to from Dar is both a plus and a minus.
