Kigelia Camp

Contact us

Set in a secluded grove of Kigelia or ‘Sausage Trees’, high on the banks of the Ifuguru sand river in the Ruaha National Park, Kigelia Camp is an exclusive seasonal camp offering a tailor-made, private experience.

Kigelia Camp is accessed by light aircraft to Msembe Airstrip from either Dar es Salaam or Arusha. The adventure begins with the 14km game drive from the airstrip to the camp. The accommodation offered is six large double tents which offer a refined, authentic camping experience within a totally wild environment without sacrificing any of the comforts of home. Each tent has comfortable, locally crafted beds and its own ensuite bathroom with flushing toilet and open-air bucket shower for that true camping experience.
