Ruaha National Park — Attraction in Iringa Region

Very few tourists everyday, we had the whole park for ourselves for one of the days. It was amazing. If you don’t like the crowds and want to enjoy a real wild experience definitely go to Ruaha.

Even though it is a long drive from Iringa to the National Park gate, it is really worth it! I am grateful for...
