The camp is located in the heart of Ruaha National Park where wildlife is in close proximity and has been chosen specifically as a place to relax, get away from the stresses of day to day working conditions and come face to face with nature. Ruaha is undoubtedly one of Africa's greatest wildlife parks and is still largely undiscovered by most tour operators and Tanzania Safari tourists thus tourism is limited and this allows you to truly appreciate the wildlife in peace and away from other tourists on your Authentic Tanzania Safaris camping safari. The camp consists of just 6 tents accommodating up to 12 guests for camping safaris. Complete isolation and exclusively yours. With outdoor showers.

Day 4: Game drives in Ruaha National Park Ruaha National Park - is Tanzania's 2nd biggest park. Wildlife is concentrated along the cascading Great Ruaha River that is the park's lifeblood. Home to hippo and crocodiles snacking on schools of fish, it is a flooded torrent after the rains, dwindling to precious pools surrounded by a blinding sweep of sand in the dry season. Waterbuck, impala and the world's most southerly Grant's gazelle risk their lives for a sip of its waters…..a permanent hunting ground for lion, leopard, jackal, hyena and packs of wild dog - rare elsewhere. Unique combinations of animals co-exist here - both the greater and lesser kudu, sable and roan antelope - Ruaha being the only protected area in the world where the flora and fauna of eastern and southern Africa overlap.

Day 5: Drive to Mikumi National Park (approx 6 hrs) After breakfast on day 5, drive of 6 hrs back to Mikumi National Park. Packed lunch on-route and a late afternoon game-drive. Overnight in Mikumi Wildlife Camp, FB

The camp has commanding views across the Mkata Flood Plains and is within easy reach of some of the more interesting areas of the park including the hippo pools. Further on to the plains is a small sun deck around a swimming pool and an observation tower. The camp concentrates primarily on game drives however by special arrangement visitors can take a walking safari to the source of the Kikoboga River. Overnight in Mikumi Wildlife Camp, FB

Selous Game Reserve Named after the legendary British explorer, Selous Game Reserve ( three times the size of Serengeti N.P. and twice the size of Belgium ), was founded as a Reserve in 1905 by the colonial administration and later expanded to include the traditional elephant migration routes.

The Reserve provides shelter for most of Tanzania’s largest elephant population, large herds of buffalo, crocodile, hippo, a variety of 440 species of birds and over 2000 variety of plants. Lions and leopards are also present together with one of the greatest predators of Africa, the African wild dog. The park probably holds the largest concentration of this endangered animal, which hunts, in large packs and with the reputation of being among the most formidable predators. Covering 50,000 km sq, Selous is the true African wilderness that has had missionaries, explorer and hunters from bygone days but has still managed to keep its doors closed to many. Hot volcanic springs, lagoons, the great Rufiji River and the diverse landscape makes Selous Game Reserve is a World Heritage site.
