Kwihala EMC; Safaris in Ruaha, Tanzania

EMC – Kwihala Camp

Set in the heart of Ruaha National Park, Kwihala Camp formally know as EMC is a combination of raw African safari and luxury, designed for those who would like to be that little bit closer to the wildlife and the excitement of Africa, but who still crave the creature comforts.

EMC – Kwihala Camp – The Facts

EMC – Kwihala Camp – The Detail

It is a small camp of just six, well-spaced tents giving guests a very private opportunity to see and experience Ruaha the way it should be.

Constructed out of light sand coloured canvas and covered by a shade producing fly sheet the tents are designed to blend into the environment and to cause as little disturbance as possible to the natural fauna and flora.

From the first sight of one of Kwihala's tents you are immediately aware that this is a 'different' style of camping. The shaded veranda with traditional safari chairs welcomes you to enter your spacious sleeping area. Furnished with 'proper' beds - either double or twin bedded - with bedside tables, a dressing table, space for luggage and hanging space, floor rugs and even curtains! - this forty square meter canvas 'home' is a far cry from crawling into a bivouac tent.

EMC – Kwihala Camp – Our View

Although there are camps such as Jongomero which offer more in the way of creature comforts, Kwihala offers something unique to Ruaha National Park, a raw and yet luxurious safari experience. The camps simplicity is its beauty, although there is electricity at night the camp is predominately lit up with lanterns invoking real sense of African wilderness, and essentially this is what the camp is about… an experience.
