We don't have a photograph of Tungamalenga Lodge & Campsite yet. We only publish images we are licensed to use, so this is an illustration rather than the real thing. Run this lodge? Send us your photos and we'll swap it out.
The village option: simple ensuite rooms and a campsite in Tungamalenga, the last settlement before the park. Pair it with a hired game-drive vehicle for the cheapest realistic Ruaha safari.
Why you'd pick it
