How to Get to Ruaha National Park
How to Get to Ruaha National Park should be a question to every traveler because the national park is relatively far in the remote areas of Tanzania which is part of the reasons why a few visitors go to this park, however, the park’s inaccessibility has given it an advantage of remaining untouched with fascinating best-kept adventures and thus still reasonably accessible. There are different ways on how to get to this park but the easiest id by using Air Transport. Ruaha National Park is a big and wild park located west of the Selous Game Reserve and south of Serengeti National Park, it is a really an amazing destination with its unbelievable Wildlife but its geographical location is a long distance from the big towns in Tanzania. One way on getting park is by using road transport in a comfortable vehicle from Iringa or Dar, Es Salaam which is 130km drive from Iringa town and 625km from Dar-Es-salaam, driving from Dar es Salaam can be quite challenging as the roads are bumpy and dusty as well as tiresome as it is a very long distance and takes about 10 hours’ drive on the road. The easiest way on getting to the park is by Air, there are daily chartered flights with coastal aviation and safari Air link serving mainly from Dar es Salaam, Dodoma, Arusha, and Kigoma that land onto the park’s airstrips which are Msembe Airstrip at Msembe (park central station) and Jongomero Airstrip close to the Jongomero Ranger Post. There is also a new flight offered by coastal aviation connecting the Serengeti National Park and Ruaha National Park, in case you are adjoining safaris in different National Parks, there are flights connecting all the national parks in the southern circuit safaris and in this case these flights usually leave from Mikumi National Park or the Selous. From Arusha you can get flights to the Northern circuit that can as well connect to Ruaha National Park. At Enclose Africa Safaris we can book your domestic charter flights as part of your tour package to make your adventure safari fun and remarkably memorable.
