Jongomero Camp

Jongomero Camp

Ruaha National Park


Jongomero Camp Location Map

Superbly isolated right in the heart of the Ruaha National Park lies Jongomero Camp. Situated on the banks of a seasonal sand river which bears the same name, and blending in beautifully with its surroundings, the camp is tucked away among some shady riverine vegetation.  Being the only camp situated in this area of the Park ensures unmatched privacy and a true wilderness experience.

Game drives go out twice per day, in the morning and afternoon.  All game drives are driven by qualified guides in an open 4x4 Land Rovers with a canopy for shade and no more than 6 guests per vehicle. Daily bush walks can also be arranged (at an additional cost) for those who want to get as close to nature as possible.  For those with a truly wild heart, perhaps have a go at fly-camping; a one or 2 day expedition on foot through the reserve, sleeping in a small fly-camp or satellite camp.

Or if a break from a hectic schedule is called for then just relax in or around the swimming pool and enjoy the wildlife. Birds constantly flutter through the camps trees, and elephants frequently enter the camp and can be viewed without even getting out of the swimming pool.  For those interested in the stars, the camp has its own high powered telescope.

Accommodation at Jongomero comprises 8 large and well-appointed tented suites, all built on raised wooden platforms and under enormous thatched roofs that also encompass a spacious private veranda.  The tents are spread out on the edge of the sand river which is often used by a multitude of different animals to make their way to the river system for water.

The main dining and living areas are both original and very comfortable, and offer a great vantage to take in the sights and sounds of the African bush that surrounds the camp.
