Ruaha River Lodge was the only safari camp in the national park for two decades, before Tanzania opened to international tourism. As a pioneer of its time this allowed for its prime position along the river and far from any other safari lodges. The lodge’s remoteness is its defining feature and greatest selling point, leaving guests feeling that they have Ruaha National Park seemingly all to themselves.
Journey to Ruaha River Lodge, on the banks of the mighty Ruaha River, to discover why Ruaha National Park is Tanzania’s best-kept secret – as you immerse yourself in breathtaking landscapes dotted with baobabs, venture in search of untamed wilderness, and witness a vast array of African wildlife species in this global biodiversity hotspot.

With unparalleled access to the Rufiji River, our intimate camp, right on the riverbank, offers front-row seats to everything that epitomises a safari in Tanzania – elephant cooling down in the water, hippo snorting, crocodile basking in the sun, and birds flitting through the trees. Escape to Rufiji River Camp, where comfort meets the untamed wilderness of Southern Tanzania. Awake to a symphony of the African bush – the Rufiji River in flow, elephant trumpeting, black and white colobus monkeys swinging in the treetops, and a chorus of some 440 bird species – before embarking on a wildlife safari. Perhaps you’ll see the world’s largest population of endangered African Wild Dog in this ‘Big Five’ national park. Welcome to Africa’s biggest conservation area. We call this UNESCO World Heritage Site home. Rufiji River Camp commands breathtaking views of the Great Rufiji River that sustains Southern Tanzania.
