Set on one of the most stunning stretches of the Great Ruaha River, you can see game throughout the day from the comfort of your veranda; there can surely be few other camps as perfectly situated. Ruaha is split across two locations, with one dining banda along the river, and the other perched high on a nearby kopje, offering a completely different perspective.
The Lodge
Built out of local stone and thatch, the lodge is built around natural kopjes and capitalises on it's exceptional position on a bend in the river.

Unforgettable expereince, loved every minute I loved my stay at Ruaha River Lodge - spent 3 nights there as part of my Southern Tanzania trip.

The food was fresh and tasty, with a good selection. We were celebrating... Read More

Ruaha is a bit of a secret which means it's quiet...on safari you are mainly out on your own with your fantastic guide and driver...hunting with your eyes and camera. Exciting!

To have wildlife literally on your doorstop without having to go on a game drive was wonderful: one day we just sat on our verandah watching a herd of 30 elephants drinking at the river opposite.

Ruaha can be visited at any time of year, however the best time for game viewing is during the dry season from June to December when wildlife converges on the dwindling water reserves notably the river in front of the Lodge.
About the Park
The Great Ruaha River forms the spine of this vast and varied park. Most of our game drives spend at least some of their time following the river, before breaking off and exploring the bushland and kopjes beyond.
About Us
The success of our camps ultimately comes down to our extensive and hands-on experience managing safaris. From the beginning the company has grown from the interests and talents of the family.
