Ruaha National Park

After breakfast you will drive to Ruaha National Park, which is famous for its rare sable antelope, roan antelope and big herds of elephants. The park represents a transition zone where eastern and southern Africa flora and fauna overlap. Although Ruaha is one of the largest parks in Africa, it is comparatively unknown and, due to its remoteness, remains unspoiled. You will have lunch at the lodge followed by an afternoon game drive. Ruaha River Lodge is the only lodge in the reserve and is built on a rocky ridge with spectacular views of the Great Ruaha River. You will have dinner and overnight stay at Ruaha River Lodge.

Full day at Ruaha National Park

Enjoy a full day game drive in the park. Nearly 500 bird species have been sighted within the park. The river area features large numbers of hippos and crocodile and attracts lions, leopard, hunting dogs, waterbuck, impala, giraffe, warthog and eland. Grants gazelle, ostrich and cheetah may be seen on the plains. You will have your meals and overnight stay at Ruaha River Lodge.

Mikumi National Park

After breakfast you will drive to Kitonga Inne Lodge for lunch and proceed to Mikumi National Park for dinner and overnight stay at Vuma Hill Tented Lodge or similar lodge.

Full day at Mikumi National Park

After breakfast, enjoy another game drive in Mikumi National Park, which is well known for its population of elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, elands, greater Kudu, wildebeest, roan and sable antelope. Predators include tree-climbing lions, leopards, wild hunting dogs and black-backed jackals. You may also see crocodiles, monitor lizards, yellow baboons and hippos.
