About the location
Ikuka Safari Camp is located up on the Mwagusi escarpment the whole camp boasts vast views out across the Ruaha valley and the Mwagusi river – something that many of the other camps do not have!
As a park, Ruaha is known for its diversity of savannah landscapes, domineering baobab trees, miombo woodlands, rocky kopjes and the Great Ruaha River itself.

hotel Layout
The main mess area of Ikuka comprises of a lounge area, an airy dining space, a lounging deck, an upstairs library, a typical safari bar and a swimming pool. The whole area is light, airy and modern, instantly impressing and welcoming you.
The six rooms are sat along the escarpment, with rooms 1, 2 and 3 facing the sunrise, and rooms 4, 5 and 6 facing the sunset.

Ikuka Safari Camp Accomodation
The design of Ikuka’s rooms are, in our opinion, a perfect blend of authentic safari, and ultimate luxury. The individual tented rooms are incorporated into the escarpment and built with local stone, thatch and wooden decks to create an open-air, wilderness feel to it.
The cozy rooms each have large super-kind beds, well-appointed en-suite bathrooms, a comfortable lounge/seating area and a private balcony to take advantage of that breathtaking view.
