Our camps luxury & comfort in the heart of wilderness

Whilst the primary focus of our expeditions is the wilderness itself, the experience is well supported by our comfortable and eco-friendly bush camps. ​

Our Concept Why We Are Passionate About What We Do

Kichaka Expeditions epitomizes the Africa of time gone by.  The miles and miles of empty space which makes this continent so breathtaking.  The Ruaha is a remote and untouched paradise, far away from the hordes of vehicles and extensive road networks that exemplify the more famous Parks in the North of Tanzania.  Moli and Noelle, the company founders, fell in love with Ruaha’s extreme isolation in 2007 and knew they would never leave.

Truly wild areas are getting harder and harder to find, and Tanzania can count itself blessed for the amount of wilderness it still possesses compared to other African countries, and the personification of this is the Ruaha National Park. With a deep passionate interest in conservation and Wildlife, All of us at Kichaka strive to assist in ensuring the protection, enjoyment and continued survival of these areas. Our accommodations range from the “back to basics” approach of fly-camping where a tent, meal and a fire is all you need, all the way to our more luxurious and “Rustic-Chic” Zumbua camp where most creature comforts are attended to. ​

Whatever you choose you will be part of a journey of discovery and experience Africa the old fashioned way. Our bush camps are extremely environmentally friendly, from the predominant method of travel by foot to the complete use of solar power. We take utmost precautions to leave a minimal footprint on this wonderful and unspoiled landscape. ​

Whether you are new to safari and just want a little taste of wilderness, or you are a Safari connoisseur and want to ‘lose’ yourself in one the most isolated areas on Earth for several days, we have a range of expeditions to suit your needs, with a promise of more to come! ​

With a combination of luxurious “glamping” as well as authentic genuine “camping” experiences, our hosts and guides will take you on probably one of the most intimate and exclusive walking adventures still available on the African continent.  Our guides are passionate and at the top of their game, you will be in safe, experienced hands as you test yourself exploring the untrammelled and never-ending vastness of the mighty Ruaha National Park.
