Set in a secluded grove of Kigelia Africana or 'Sausage' trees, high on the banks of the Ifuguru Sand River, in the Ruaha National Park, Kigelia is an exclusive and totally secluded camp. The backdrop of a Baobab forest, rocky hills and the Great Ruaha River makes the camp incomparable.

Chole Mjini Lodge

Activities at Chole Mjini Lodge are diverse, and you can do as much or as little as you want. Because the Indian Ocean is only meters away, diving, snorkelling, swimming and dhow sailing are hugely popular! We own a refurbished traditional dhow that we use for full day excursions to magnificent sand banks, snorkelling trips or sunset cruises.
