Ruaha is an outstanding safari park due to the fact the park showcases a crossover of East and Southern African species in terms of flora and fauna. One reason for the hordes of animals in Ruaha is the Great Ruaha River, a vital water source throughout the year but especially during the dry season
Lion live here in large prides, often numbering over twenty individuals! Leopard and cheetah love hunting on the open plains, while many smaller species are equally at home here – serval, caracal, genet and banded wildcat
Other mammals also thrive in Ruaha in abundance. The park’s elephant herds are absolutely humongous! Buffalo are plentiful too, as are zebra, giraffe, hippopotamus and an exciting assortment of antelope species such as roan, sable, eland, impala, gazelle, reedbuck, hartebeest, klipspringer and the largest population of greater kudu in all East Africa

In the company of a knowledgeable guide, a 2-3 hour walking safari, offers a truly special and unique perspective of the park’s fascinating inhabitants. A not-to-be-missed attraction are the park’s towering baobabs who stand vigil over the landscape. Their striking appearance makes for great photographic opportunities! Another prominent feature of Ruaha are the sparkling waterways that attract an abundance of game. The best time to embark on a walking safari is in late June.
A magnificent line up of game is on show for you at this fantastic Park. Predators abound and lion, leopard and cheetah, as well as wild dog and hyena will be happy to present themselves to you.

Day 6
Ruaha National Park | Dar Es Salaam
Ruaha National Park | Dar Es Salaam
Ruaha is a predator-rich remote wilderness that is far off the beaten track.
The remote location only adds to the park's appeal, leaving it wonderfully devoid of travellers.
Big cat viewing is superb here and the overall quality of guiding is probably the best in the country. Usually booked in conjunction with Nyerere National Park, Ruaha National Park is an off-the-beaten-track destination that is often described as ideal for old safari hands. However, we believe that this park is for everyone who has an interest in true wilderness and big game viewing.
There is no reason that this ridiculously good safari park should be ignored by adventurous safari novices!
