Accommodation & Facilities
The six naturally coloured tents have been specifically positioned and designed to blend into its natural surroundings; with the intention of causing a minimal effect upon the area. Within each of the tents there is a large double bed and rustic furnishings- in line with the environmental feel of the camp. Each tent has an en-suite bathroom complete with a flushing toilet and bucket showers.
Within the centre of the camp there is a communal mess tent which is perfect for relaxing in after an exciting day of exploring. It is rustically furnished just like the tents; with sofas, chairs and a dinner table.
Dining
All meals are included at Kigelia Ruaha; the menu is an imaginative blend of both local and international dishes. As many ingredients as possible are locally sourced from the meats, fruit and vegetables. The location of your mealtimes will depend on the weather either taking place within the communal mess tent or beneath the stars with a high potential for uninvited guests to arrive!
