OUR OPINION

“Lions of Ruaha” is a very high quality safari at a superb price. This safari will suit both the experienced safari enthusiast and the first time traveller to Africa. Excellent guiding and the chance to visit a reserve that sees very few tourists make this the ultimate safari to the wild and untamed Africa of years gone by.

This safari will particularly appeal to guests with an interest in lion prides and the interaction between different prides and prey species but is equally interesting to guests looking for a more traditional safari experience.

Although this safari is a stand-alone option of any duration you choose many guests combine Ruaha with a three or four night stay in Selous Game Reserve or the even more remote Katavi National Park or maybe a week on the beach in Zanzibar or Pemba
