An absolutely amazing experience in every way with beautiful scenery, animals at every turn - and relatively few other tourists. The Ruaha that we saw is an unspoilt gem and I defy anyone to go there and not fall in love with Tanzania.

In the dry season the wildlife congregates around the river pools. I have happy memories of watching two male hippos contesting the right to occupy one pool: they used excrement-spraying and eventually worked who was dominant without the use of violence. We stayed in the main safari lodge which was excellent with wonderful views from the dining area

Not found a better competitor to my friends Fox family Ruaha River Lodge! Am biased but its value for money.

Although the wildlife is a bit more elusive, you will have this park virtually to yourself. And it is a vast expanse of river, woodland and grassy plain open to exploration. If you self drive, you must endure the long, rough access road. But you can camp anywhere, with no neighbors except the odd cheetah. Safari as it is meant to be.
