Mikumi National Park Safari
Ruaha National Park is Tanzania’s largest national park (over 20,000 km²) and one of Africa’s most remote, wild safari destinations. It lies in central-southern Tanzania near Iringa and forms part of the huge Ruaha-Rungwa ecosystem. It’s known for vast open plains, dramatic baobab-studded landscapes, riverine woodlands, and a very authentic wildlife experience with far fewer visitors than the northern parks like Serengeti or Ngorongoro.
