ACCOMMODATION
There are numerous accommodation choices both inside and outside the park. Inside the park there are six privately run options; five camps and one lodge. Mwagusi and Ruaha River Lodge are two of the more established, while Kigelia and Kwihala are relatively newer. Jongomero is away from the main game viewing area, while Mdonya is also quite remote. There are several camping options, the cost varying whether you decide to stay at one of the special campsites or one of the public options along the Mdonya and Ruaha Rivers. There are also several park run 'bandas' along the Ruaha River which are quite basic but perfectly adequate. Another option are the newer park run rooms perched on a hill overlooking the Ruaha River. They are all ensuite and there is also a family room available. A very reasonably priced restaurant is alongside them, and can also be used by those staying in the older bandas by the river. Outside the park there are a few options, both camping and in lodges and are cheaper than staying in the park; however with the exception of Tandala where elephants are a regular occurence you will not be immersed in wildlife like you would inside the park.
