Spend the full day exploring Ruaha with a picnic lunch. The park mixes river valleys, open woodland and baobab-studded plains. Your guide searches for lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras and antelope such as greater kudu and impala. Ruaha is also home to leopards, cheetahs and wild dogs, although sightings are never guaranteed. Return in the late afternoon for dinner and overnight at the lodge.
