Rungwa Game Safaris was established in 2000
with an ethos of ethical hunting, conservation, and tradition.

Ugalla South Game Reserve

Located in western Tanzania, the Ugalla River meanders through a vibrant landscape of grassy wetlands and clusters of Borassus palms. This riverine paradise, reminiscent of the Okavango Delta, is home to roaming herds of roan and sable that graze on the lush floodplains. Due to its remote location, this pristine wilderness is only accessible for five months each year.
