Enjoy your stay in a grove of sausage trees in Ruaha National Park on the banks of the Ifuguru River, in the best game area in the park.

Bush walks: there’s no better tree to hug than a baobab, with their strangely human form. Smooth bark - dust scented. The crevices are home to reptiles, bats, and owls. Round the trunks lie crunchy shells of their furry seeds, lemony to taste. It’s only when you walk, that you find this out -and many, many other things about the bush.

Game drives: you get a tremendous feeling of anticipation when you’ve grabbed cameras and shades, and left camp with a guide, in our open vehicles. Who knows what we’re going to find, but for sure there’ll be moments of excitement, fascination, and peace amongst the great beasts and herds of Ruaha.
