Wake to the sounds of the bush stirring to life, and prepare for a truly immersive day in Ruaha National Park, one of Africa’s last great wildernesses.

Morning – Walking Safari with Expert Ranger

After an early breakfast, set out on a guided walking safari, the most intimate way to experience the African bush. Accompanied by an experienced ranger and armed scout, you’ll explore on foot—learning how to read animal tracks, identify medicinal plants, and understand the delicate balance of life in the wild.

This slower, quieter pace brings the small wonders of Ruaha to life: tiny antlions burrowing in the sand, birds flitting through the bushes, and fresh paw prints hinting at nearby predators. The thrill of encountering wildlife on foot is unmatched—raw, exhilarating, and unforgettable.

Return to camp for lunch and a bit of relaxation during the heat of the day.

Afternoon – Leisure & Sundowners in the Bush

Enjoy a relaxed afternoon at your lodge or tented camp. Watch elephants pass by from the comfort of your verandah, take a dip in the pool, or indulge in a bush-style siesta. As the sun begins to dip, prepare for the next adventure…

Evening – Night Game Drive under the Stars

As darkness falls, venture out on a night game drive, a rare and thrilling experience that reveals the secret lives of nocturnal animals. With a spotlight and trained guide, you’ll search for elusive creatures like genets, civets, bush babies, porcupines, and maybe even a leopard on the hunt.

The bush feels entirely different at night—cooler, quieter, and full of mystery. Listen for the haunting call of hyenas or the distant roar of a lion as you cruise through the moonlit landscape.

Return to camp for a late dinner and stories by the fire, ending the day with a deeper connection to the wild heart of Ruaha.
