Journey to Ruaha River Lodge, on the banks of the mighty Ruaha River, to discover why Ruaha National Park is Tanzania’s best-kept secret – as you immerse yourself in breathtaking landscapes dotted with baobabs, venture in search of untamed wilderness, and witness a vast array of African wildlife species in this global biodiversity hotspot.

Ruaha River Lodge was the only safari camp in the national park for two decades, before Tanzania opened to international tourism. As a pioneer of its time this allowed for its prime position along the river and far from any other safari lodges. The lodge’s remoteness is its defining feature and greatest selling point, leaving guests feeling that they have Ruaha National Park seemingly all to themselves.
