Mikumi National Park

Best Time To Visit

The Best Time to Visit Mikumi National Park is during the dry season, which typically occurs from June to October. During this period, the vegetation is sparse, making wildlife easier to spot, and animals tend to congregate around water sources, providing excellent opportunities for game viewing. Additionally, the dry season coincides with the park's peak tourist season, offering optimal weather conditions for exploring the park's attractions.
