Ruaha River Lodge Exterior

Overview

Ruaha River Lodge is a larger lodge in a unique riverside location, in one of the richest wildlife areas of the park.

Rooms

Twenty-four comfortable stone chalets stretch along the riverbank. There’s a veranda outside with river views and inside, each chalet has a sitting area, writing desk and en-suite bathroom.

Facilities

There are two dining areas, one along the river, the other built atop a kopje/hill with views down to the river – a perfect sundowner spot.

Game drives

Nature walks

Boat cruises

Facilities may change. Some activities may be subject to an additional charge.

Our thoughts

" While the camp itself is quite simple, its location is a great spot for just sitting on the veranda and watching animals come down to the river to drink. "

"We had an amazing, awesome trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar. Everything ran smoothly and we managed to see the Big 5 plus lots of lions, tree lions cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, hippos, elephants galore etc. Even the wildebeest. The accommodation was great everywhere. We had the most wonderful time and despite the cost, the air balloon flight was so worth it. Such an experience, none of us will ever forget."

"Great holiday! Our safari guide was really good, knowledgeable, polite and sensible. The Lodge was really good, which offset Janes worries about a tent... but plush tent with ceramic loo! We saw the big 5 and scenery was amazing. Video of hippos still makes us laugh and warthogs really do hop like the cartoon Lion King. "

"We had an amazing holiday – more than we could have ever hoped for! We absolutely loved Tanzania. Our guide was fantastic. This was a first-time safari, so were very nervous but now want to go to Africa again!"
