We enjoyed seeing most of the big five. But we enjoyed most the hippos in a pool

Ruaha NP is very big and it changes his look. Mountains, grass, trees and ... , you get every scene you have in your mind how a NP can Look like.
Amazing nature with great count of animals!
Defently a Tessin to come back to Tansania!

Excellent birding in a beautiful National Park with very varied scenery.
Wonderful wildlife, particularly of large numbers of elephants. We had 2 very good leopard sightings and numerous other mammals. Lions were heard but not seen other than in the far distance.

Ruaha National park is a beautiful park, full of scenery and stunning views even without animals. Plenty of baobap trees and other trees and bushes to see.
The weather was good, warm and mainly sunny which is nice on a jeep where you can pop open the roof. Our accommodation was in Bandas. They are stunning and had really nice beds but unfortunately our bathroom first had a broken shower and later on also a broken toilet. This got fixed but the shower never worked well. Despite that we had a good stay and heard lions roaring nearby during the night.
Dinner and breakfast was nearby but we went on an early morning safari before breakfast which was great as we saw a python.
Our guide was fab, very knowledgable and he showed us a lot of stuff, picked up baobap fruit, elephant poo etc and explained everything so well.
A great safari with lots of animals to see.

If you want to feel what wild Africa is, here's the place! You will see a lot of wildlife and a few humans. But be aware that it is not an easy park, besause you don't get tips as in other places to find animals, you have to find them by your own. It is then the most rewarding when you are face to face with a leopard!

I had in the Ruaha the best accommodation, the Mwagusi lodge inside the Park with a astonishingly, luxury service.
