Hodi Hodi - Ruaha Bush Camp Tanzania

“What a privilege to have the custody of wide plains, deep forests and craggy mountains all to ourselves!”– Jake BISHOP –

Authentic, classic safari experiences in a conservation concession bordering the largest national game park in Africa.

Combined with the adjacent Usangu Game Reserve and other wetlands, it offers 20-thousand square kilometres of majestic scenery and incredible wildlife. 

The name of the park is derived from the Great Ruaha River, which flows along its South Eastern perimeter.

One of Ruaha’s qualities is its relative inaccessibility, meaning that it gets far fewer tourists and visitors than any park in Tanzania –providing an unforgettable experience for those who are lucky enough to find a way to visit.

The feel of Hodi Hodi is that of having your own tented home, where you can unpack, unwind and set up your base camp, then spend days enjoying an impressive variety of nearby landscapes and wildlife, and a broad selection of activities.

‘Hodi Hodi?’ In Swahili – may I come in? And the answer was, and still is, ‘Karibu’ – Welcome.”– Julia BISHOP –
