High-end
Inside the park
Safari company
Nomad's quietly classic camp in the heart of the northern circuit: unfenced, canvas, and deliberately simple so the park does the talking. Excellent guiding with a strong conservation ethos.
Why you'd pick it
- Understated canvas camp under sausage trees
- Open-air bucket showers
- Walking safaris and fly-camping option
What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Ruaha National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entry$30 plus 18% VAT, charged per 24 hours.
- $35.4per person, per day
- Vehicle$40 plus VAT for a foreign-registered vehicle; a Tanzanian-registered one is about $9.
- $47.2per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $354 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
