My Amazing Experience at Ruaha National Park My husband and I just returned from an incredible thre
5/5

My husband and I just returned from an incredible three-day adventure in Ruaha National Park. We collaborated with Paul to determine the best accommodation options for our stay. Ultimately, we decided to book two nights and three days in Ruaha National Park, staying overnight at the Ruaha Hilltop Lodge, which is conveniently located just outside the park.

Accommodation Choices

We thoroughly enjoyed all arrangements, each offering a unique experience. Paul dedicated a significant amount of time and exchanged several emails with me to help finalize our decision. I found that Kitonga Company offered rates that were more reasonable compared to other companies, making it a great choice for our trip.

Wildlife Encounters

The highlight of our visit was undoubtedly the wildlife. The Ruaha River was breathtaking, although it had less water than usual, which made it less lively than it could have been. However, this did not hinder our experience; we were fortunate enough to see two leopards—one of which was right next to our safari vehicle—and witness a pride of lionesses hunting a massive herd of buffalo.

Overall, our trip to Ruaha National Park was unforgettable, filled with stunning landscapes and remarkable wildlife encounters that we will cherish forever

We highly recommend Kitonga Tours & Safaris for those seeking an authentic experience of Ruaha National Park. Their expertise and commitment to providing immersive wildlife experiences make them an excellent choice for travelers looking to explore the natural beauty and biodiversity of this remarkable park.

4 Day Unforgettable Safari Adventure to Ruaha with an Amazing Guide!
5/5

This was an amazing experience! Our guide picked us up from our hotel in Iringa. The drive was pleasant, and we had a great conversation all the way to Ruaha National Park. We were incredibly lucky to have such a knowledgeable and engaging guide (Alex), who made our experience truly enjoyable. We even spotted the Big 4 of Ruaha! This is a trip we'll never forget. Thank you for everything.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Kitonga Tours
5/5

We booked a 5- day safari, Mikumi & Ruaha National Park. First of all: we loved this experience, also thanks to John and Paul, our Tourguides. The places we spent the night were fabulous, the landscapes magnificent and of course we loved to see all those animals. We felt very safe with them and would recommend this company anytime

An amazing Safari experience
5/5

We had an amazing safari
arranged by Mr.Gerlad from Kitonga Tours. He was very responsive to all of our questions and concerns. Our guide Paul and Abakuki was extremely experienced and knowledgeable. He knew where the animals were going before the animals did. Wherever he took us we were followed by other guides as they knew Paul & Abakuki knew what he was doing. We saw the Big-4 and so much more. Thank you Kitonga Tours, Mr.Gerlad, Paul and Abakuki for providing unforgettable memories!

AMAZING TOUR EXPERIENCE
5/5

Kitonga Tours & Safaris provided my girlfriend and I with an experience that will never be forgotten. Their staff was very cordial and professional throughout the entire process. Because of the safari guides' enthusiasm and expertise, every wildlife drive was both entertaining and instructive. They made sure we saw lions, elephants, and cheetahs, among other species we had intended to see, and we adored how customized the service was. Everything about the vacation went smoothly, including the lodging and transportation, and we always felt secure and taken care of. This trip really beyond our expectations; we are grateful to Kitonga Tours for organizing such a wonderful excursion!

Perfect Safari
5/5

In August, we booked a 4-day safari in Ruaha National Park with Kitonga Safari Tours. It was perfect. Gerald organized everything very well. Whether it was transfers, accommodations outside the safari, or special requests like a walking safari or a night game drive — nothing was a problem.
Our guide Habakuki was excellent. He showed us everything and took great care of us. We even saw the Big Four. We had our own jeep and never had any concerns about our safety. The park is stunning.
Our accommodation (Ruaha Bandas) was also very good, and we had hippos right next to our lodge.
All in all, the safari was a unique experience and perfectly organized. If we book another safari, it will definitely be with Kitonga Safari Tours. Thank you for everything!

Four special days in the heart of the savannah!
5/5

I took a four-day tour of Ruaha National Park and it was a wonderful experience. Tadei, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and knew the park inside out. Thanks to him, we learned so much about the savannah and its inhabitants. During the various excursions, including a walking safari, we were able to observe many animals up close. The food was delicious and the service was friendly. Highly recommended!
