Ruaha National Park Game Drive

Ruaha National Park, Tanzania

Include in my safari All activities

About this experience

Ruaha is one of Tanzania’s largest national parks and one of its least crowded. Baobab-studded hills and the Great Ruaha River create a rugged setting with strong populations of elephant, lion and buffalo.

It is also a place where eastern and southern African species overlap, so you may see both greater and lesser kudu, plus sable and roan antelope in some areas.

Highlights

  • Low visitor numbers
  • Large lion prides and elephant herds
  • Greater and lesser kudu

Good to know
