4 Days Luxury Ruaha Lodge Safari with Scenic Fly-in Fly-out Journeys

Fly to Ruaha and meet your guide at the airstrip. Begin your introduction to the park during an arrival game drive or transfer to your luxury lodge, depending on landing time and the property’s location. Your guide will point out wildlife and explain the landscape along the route. Where practical, explore a suitable section of the Great Ruaha River area before continuing to your accommodation.

At the lodge, settle into your room and become familiar with the property. Take time to relax and enjoy the surroundings before an afternoon outing if the schedule permits. Search for wildlife along a suitable route or appreciate sunset views from an approved location. Return to the lodge with time to unwind and enjoy your first evening in the safari setting.

Begin with a guided bush walk in an approved area, accompanied by an authorised guide and armed ranger. Follow the briefing before examining footprints, feeding signs, plants and insects.

Its route and duration will reflect local conditions and the abilities of those participating.

Return to your lodge for a restful midday break. Later, take another game drive through a suitable wildlife area, spending time at productive sightings and enjoying the afternoon landscape. A sundowner may be arranged where available, with the location and any additional charge confirmed beforehand. Return to your lodge for a final evening in the wilderness.
