A 6 days Ruaha wilderness safari is meant for travelers who want fewer hurried transfers and more time to absorb the park. With 5 nights allocated to the Ruaha area, you can revisit promising habitats, notice subtle changes and still rest between drives.
Travel notes
Ruaha is extensive. Long-distance circuits should be chosen according to actual road and lodge position; claiming that every remote sector can be visited from any accommodation is misleading. A slow safari values depth within reachable areas over covering a map at speed.
