"Great hotel 30-60 minutes from the international airport dependant on traffic. The style is Afro chic but in places it is showing some signs of age. Clean with helpful staff.
Restaurant is good but with expensive wine choices."

Puku Ridge
"Puku Ridge review"
3 nights
Arrived
24 Aug 2023
"Amazing situated on a water hole in the central part of the park.
Staff, rooms, food in fact everything was 10/10. Air conditioning over the bed was a welcome reprieve from the heat.
Guiding was very good and the knowledge and effort out in to find certain animals beyond belief.
The game viewing was good but not exceptional in this area but this was a great place to settle in to the daily routine.
Lovely little surprises for sundowners and lunches with pop ups In beautiful locations."

Kaingo Camp
"Kaingo Camp review"
4 nights
Arrived
27 Aug 2023
"A more rustic camp than Puku or Chiawa but guiding and wildlife was exceptional.
Again lovely surprise pop ups for lunch and sundowners. Food was more home style than refined but very tasty and definitely enough for the largest appetites.
This was a true safari adventure with a team that gave you the feel that you were somewhere very special."

Chiawa Camp
"Better than excellent!!!"
5 nights
Arrived
31 Aug 2023
"Loved this camp, loved the special touches, loved the staff ( wow, can they sing ) loved every little thing about our stay.
We were very lucky and upgraded to the Safari Suite which was palatial for the 2 of us with our own private pool overlooking the Zambezi we could wallow while watches, Elephant, Hippo and a host of other animals coming to the river.
The little touches that Chiawa offers Glashow how real hospitality should be. They created memories that will last a lifetime."

How first impressions can be so wrong!! We had an amazing guide Geofrey who not only read tracks but anticipated where to go to get the best opportunities and positions for photos. The camp is lovely beautiful rooms with views to die for, food and friendliness of staff was excellent.
Ruaha is a vast dry expanse but there is so much on offer
To see from African wildcats, Servals, Leopards and wild dogs we would 100% return"
