Mkomazi National Park
Sitting on the Kenyan border and contiguous with Kenya's Tsavo West, Mkomazi is one of Tanzania's least-visited parks — a semi-arid landscape of scattered acacia and dramatic inselbergs.
It's home to a dedicated black rhino sanctuary, part of a long-running breeding and reintroduction program, alongside African wild dogs, another rare and endangered species that has found a stronghold here.
Wildlife & Highlights
Expect dry-country specialists like gerenuk and fringe-eared oryx alongside more typical savannah wildlife, all viewed with a fraction of the vehicle traffic of the northern circuit parks.
Best Time To Visit
June to October, during the dry season, when wildlife concentrates around the park's limited water sources.
