Family

Families with children aged five and older are welcomed at Jabali. Exceptions to the age limit can be made depending on camp occupancy – please chat to us. We do not, however, offer specific activities for children or personal guides. Note that children below 12 should always share a tent with an adult.

We love catering for the individual needs of families, however, safety is always our top priority and the wilderness environment here is not conducive to providing a specific outdoor activity programme for children.

About location

Ruaha is more remote than many popular safari destinations and safari parks in Tanzania, which has the wonderful benefit of limiting visitor numbers to serious safari enthusiasts. It offers a truly rewarding wilderness experience in a remote and compelling African bush environment.Game viewing in Ruaha National Park is unrivalled and the scope of wildlife extraordinary, with 80 animal species and 10% of the world’s lion population calling the plains home.The density of lions in the park is not only extremely high but prides are unusually large – it is not uncommon to see numbers of 20 or more. Almost 100 of the elusive African wild dog are to be found here, and black-backed jackal and hyena both have strong populations. Also common are buffalo, zebra, giraffe, Greater and Lesser kudu, Lichtenstein’s hartebeest, waterbuck, bushbuck and impala and of course, the 580 recorded species of birdlife. In the height of dry season, see elephants obtain water from dry sand rivers using their front feet and trunks.

Information

Set high on a rocky kopje overlooking a landscape dotted with spiky palms and bulbous baobabs, Jabali Ridge is a sophisticated base from which to explore Ruaha National Park. The remarkable beauty of Ruaha is not only in the landscape and its diversity of flora and fauna, or the impressive big game, but in the feeling of having the wilderness all to yourself. With only a handful of visitors at any one time in an area the size of New Jersey, this is an exceptional safari experience.
Jabali Ridge’s 8 suites are hidden amongst the rocky boulders that cocoon the property. An infinity pool, spa and plenty of places to laze ensure that time off is as memorable as time out in the bush. Expert guides lead walking safaris, game drives and night drives.

Activities

Ruaha National Park is renowned in East Africa for its excellent guides and truly wild landscape. Whether you’re tracking lions by vehicle, discovering the smaller wonders on foot or just relaxing in camp, the expert guides at Jabali Ridge will enhance your wildlife experience with their superb knowledge.

Safari

Game drives
Guided game drives are offered twice a day. Our six-seater game-viewing vehicles are open-sided with a canvas roof and the canvas sides can be rolled down in case of rain (ponchos are provided). All vehicles have power points where you can recharge your devices and all are fitted with fridges to keep your drinks deliciously frosty. A private game-viewing vehicle can be booked by prior arrangement. In the morning, maximise your game-viewing time by taking a delicious breakfast picnic with you to enjoy under the shade of a tree. In the evening, sip a cold gin & tonic in the heart of the bush as the sun sinks below the horizon.

Night drives
When the sun descends, the elusive night animals come out to play. Explore the secrets of these shy creatures on a night game drive through Ruaha National Park.

Walking safaris
A walking safari is one the most intimate ways to experience the bush and can be enjoyed with one of Jabali’s experienced armed guides and local trackers. Eye-to-eye with the wildlife, your senses are heightened and the sights, sounds and smells of the bush come alive.

About Restaurant

Our chefs pride themselves on ensuring that everything served in Jabali is homemade, from our fresh breads, cakes, biscuits to fresh fruit salads, sorbets and homemade ice creams. You can choose a ‘bush bonnet’ picnic breakfast to enjoy during your morning game drive, or go for a cooked brunch back in camp. Our light, buffet-style lunches served in the mess tent are popular in the heat of the day, and include plenty of salads with your main course. Delicious gourmet-style dinners are a three-course affair served outdoors under the stars.

Spa

An infinity pool is the perfect place to cool off on a hot afternoon and the spa will rejuvenate even the most tired limbs.
