Kenya - Masai Mara - Kicheche
Kicheche Mara Camp - The camp prides itself on offering a friendly and relaxing stay, with our hosts treating you as welcome guests, not mere travel statistics, cost £110 per person per night (low season - June and November) £140 per person per night (peak season). No single supplements!
To maintain this intimate and relaxed atmosphere there is a maximum of twenty-two guests at any time. Each tent is comfortably furnished with an en-suite bathroom and flushing toilet, low wattage lighting is supplied 24 hours. The majority of the tents are in secluded positions overlooking the plains and nearby hills, while others are closer together for families or friends. The spacious Nyati tent acts as the camp lounge with comfortable seating, a library, board games, cards and local crafts. Our cook produces delicious and healthy meals, and the menu features both African and international dishes. Fresh produce is flown in regularly and bread and pastries are baked daily. In-camp meals are taken al-fresco whenever possible when guests may sit at the communal table with their hosts, or are welcome to dine alone. Early morning and late afternoon are the most productive hours for game drives and our safari 
customised 4WD vehicles give everyone a perfect view. Watching wildlife at close range, but without encroaching on their space, is endlessly fascinating and our guides' instincts and experience provide superb photo opportunities of wild animals. A different perspective is gained through escorted walks, and guests can also visit the nearest Maasai village. Safety is paramount when leaving camp on foot so all walks are escorted by an armed ranger. Our interpretive guides will point out the spoor of a leopard, the nest of a rare bird or signs of recent migration activity that would pass unnoticed by the eyes of strangers... The amount of time spent in the field makes it crucial to have top quality guides who have wide experience of the Mara and are skilled in interpreting its flora, fauna and ecology. All our guides are KPSGA qualified (Kenya Professional Safari Guides Association) and undergo further training on a regular basis. [back>] [suggested itinerary...]
