Camp fires and warm hospitality create a relaxing bush atmosphere against which to experience the thrill of being close to the multitudes of wild animals in timeless Africa.'
This is the only small, personalised camp in Mikumi and, set up on a rocky kopje on the Mkata flood plain, it presides over the best game viewing area of the park, the Mwanamboga waterhole.
Not only is Mikumi a great place for 'getting your eye in' on game drives, but it is also a fantastically colourful place. The open grasslands stretching out before you change through the spectrum of orange and yellows throughout the day. There are high concentrations of game, with large herds of Nyasa Blue Wildebeest, (not found in Ruaha National Park), buffalo, impala, zebra and giraffe. Where there are large herds, there are always plenty of predators waiting for dinner.
Exclusive camping 'African' style, combines creature comforts with the real bush experience; ideal for those wishing to be in the "thick of it" immersed amongst the wildlife.
Foxes Safari Camp is a seasonal camp and is closed from March until June. The best time for game viewing is in the dry months between June and February as access to some areas of the park may be limited during March to June, due to the rains. Vuma Hills Tented Camp remains open all year round.
