Kigelia Ruaha strives to harmonize with its surroundings, prioritizing the overall experience while ensuring a high level of comfort. This is why we hold such affection for this camp!

Located along the banks of the Ifuguru sand river, the six tents are nestled beneath the shade of sausage trees, which inspired the camp’s name.

In addition to the thrilling game drives that Ruaha is renowned for, there is a significant focus on walking safaris.
Night drives are now available here, offering adventurous visitors a glimpse into the unique realm of nocturnal animals like porcupines, genets, and civets, along with the elusive and sought-after pangolin. This property is not enclosed and is situated in a wildlife area, meaning that large and potentially hazardous animals may roam through. Should you choose to stay here, please remain vigilant while navigating the camp and feel free to ask a staff member to accompany you if you have any worries. Every guest is accompanied after dark as a standard practice.
