Visit Asanja Ruaha Camp

Tucked away along the banks of the Great Ruaha River, surrounded by ancient baobabs and the untouched beauty of Miombo woodlands, Asanja Ruaha Camp is a true hidden gem in the heart of Tanzania’s second largest national park. Offering a rare blend of exclusivity, wilderness, and indulgent comfort, this intimate camp promises an authentic safari experience far removed from the well-trodden trails of more crowded parks.

Asanja Ruaha features just eight expansive tented suites, each thoughtfully designed by acclaimed safari architect Neil Rocher. Spanning 140 square metres, the suites combine understated luxury with a deep connection to nature. Every suite boasts an ensuite bathroom with flush toilet and hot shower, a private plunge pool for midday relaxation, and a spacious verandah overlooking the river—perfect for spotting passing elephants or birdlife as you sip your morning coffee or sundowner.

Game viewing here is nothing short of extraordinary. Ruaha National Park is a vast, untamed landscape teeming with wildlife—home to over 10,000 elephants, the second-largest lion population on Earth, and endangered African wild dogs. And yet, it remains blissfully uncrowded. On guided game drives and walking safaris, you’ll have the wilderness nearly all to yourself.

Whether you’re indulging in a pop-up spa treatment, dining under the stars, or sharing stories around the campfire with Asanja’s warm and attentive team, every moment at Asanja Ruaha feels personal and unforgettable. The staff—renowned for their dedication and heartfelt hospitality—are at the core of what makes this place truly special.
