Kigelia Safari Camp

Kigelia Safari Camp Overview.

Kigelia Safari Camp is the perfect place to visit when your soul craves the humbling solitude of giant baobabs. The exhilaration of encountering Africa’s big cats. Or the sight of great herds of elephants. Here, the focus is on experiencing the raw beauty of nature rather than luxury indulgences like gold taps. It’s a place where you can feel at home while being cared for by a dedicated and attentive team.

The Camp and Tents.

The camp features just six airy tents. Each set beneath the boughs of the Sausage Tree (Kigelia Africana). After which the camp was named. Its charm and simplicity highlight the surrounding landscape. Allowing you to truly immerse yourself in the natural beauty. Imagine falling asleep under canvas to the calls of leopards and waking up to the dappled light of the sun filtering through the bush—a magical experience.

Star Beds and Stargazing

Each tent includes a private star bed, offering the opportunity to enjoy a night of stargazing while experiencing the untamed wilderness of Ruaha. Our meticulously crafted star beds are seamlessly integrated into your tent, inviting you to embrace the wild beauty of the Ruaha landscape.

Kigelia Ruaha Safari Tents (5 Rooms).

A grove of Kigelia (Sausage Tree) is home to this simple tented camp. There are only six tents here, and it’s certainly not camping like you know it – big. Airy tents provide shelter from the elements without detracting from the beauty of the natural bush setting. The tents well-furnished with locally crafted pale wood furniture, a hot safari-style bucket shower under the stars (the showers are en-suite but outdoors), and a flush loo. One of the tents is the family tent, which has two adjoining en-suite bedrooms.

Family tent (1 Room)

There one unit designed specifically for families at Kigelia. With two full-size en suite rooms under one thatch roof, this is ideal for families with young children. You have your own space, but the rooms are close together, so you can enjoy being on safari as a family.

Night drives

Getting out after dark allows you to see nocturnal critters who are otherwise hiding out during the day. Whether it’s the smaller but fascinating genets, civets and porcupines, or the big game like lion and leopard it’s a thrilling encounter and a totally different perspective.
