Day 1.
Arrival in Dar Es Salaam, the capital of Tanzania. You will be picked up at the airport and driven to your hotel for the night.
Jabali Ridge, Ruaha Tanzania
Ruaha’s remarkable beauty lies not only in the landscape and its diversity of flora and fauna, or the impressive wildlife, but also in the feeling of having the wilderness all to yourself. With only a handful of visitors at a time, in Tanzania’s second largest national park, this is an exceptional safari experience.

The experience
This program is a source of inspiration — each trip is unique and tailored to you.
Day 2.
Wake up early to catch your morning flight out to Ruaha. You will be picked up from your hotel and taken to the airport to board your flight to Ruaha. On arrival at Msembe Airstrip you will be met by a Jabali Ridge guide. You will receive a brief introduction to the surrounding area before embarking on a first safari en route to Jabali Ridge. Once you arrive at the camp, you have the opportunity to relax and acclimatize after the flight. In the afternoon you go on a safari in an open safari vehicle. As evening approaches, it’s time to prepare for drinks and dinner or, if pre-booked, the opportunity to look for the nocturnal animals on a night safari. Exciting!
Day 3.
Depending on your preferences, there are a couple of options when it comes to how you want to lay out your day. Walking safaris are a great way to start the day, get out early and explore the environment on the same terms as wild animals. Or morning safari with picnic breakfast, or stay and enjoy delicious breakfast in the camp. Full day safari with picnic lunches, or a relaxed lunch at the camp with an afternoon tour. You can also spend the day at the camp, enjoying spa treatments and relaxing in the pool before heading out on a night safari. A fantastic day.
Day 4.
After breakfast wave goodbye to Ruaha and enjoy the delicious packed lunch from Jabali Ridge as you make your way to Dar es Salaam to continue your onward journey to Zanzibar or perhaps the Seychelles?
