Kicheche Bush Camp

This small, classic, intimate, luxury tented bush camp is located in the Olare Motorogi Conservancy and is completely unfenced, accommodating a maximum of twelve guests.  Game drives are conducted in open-sided and open roofed customized 4WD Land Cruiser vehicles, shared with other guests. Exclusive use of a vehicle is available at a supplementary charge on request.

Accommodation

The camp holds six spacious, fully insect-proof custom designed tents, equipped with twin or double beds, linen, bedside tables, luggage racks and rugs. Bathrooms are en-suite and are equipped with a dresser, flushing toilet and a traditional safari bucket shower with a view. There are comfortable chairs on each veranda overlooking the plains. One tent can be converted into a triple on request. Each tent has its own 24 hour solar lighting system. A radio call is fitted in each tent for security.

A large open sided dining tent overlooking the plains also hosts a relaxing lounge area with a selection of reference books curio shop selling mostly the work of local Maasai staff members.

All meals and drinks are inclusive and most meals are taken alfresco, beneath the shade of the acacia trees or underneath the stars or in our dining tent. We have a fully stocked bar with a range of wines. Drinks are included with the meals. Picnic breakfasts and lunches are also available on game driving excursions. Dinner is served by candle light either under the stars or in the dining tent. End the evening with a nightcap by the fire before retiring of to bed.

Activities

Guests are woken up with tea, coffee or hot chocolate and homemade biscuits brought to their tent. An early morning game drive sets off at sunrise and returns to camp late morning. Breakfast is a leisurely affair usually taken outside around the lounge area or as a picnic on the game drive. After lunch, set under the acacias, you can relax under the shade of your veranda and enjoy the silence, only punctuated by birdcalls. Alternatively, you can relax in the lounge area. An afternoon game drive departs after tea, i.e. around 4 pm and returns as darkness falls after enjoying sundowners on the plains. Freshen up and then join the other guests around the camp fire for pre-dinner drinks.

Kicheche Bush Camp is accessible by daily scheduled one hour flights from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to Mara OL-Kiombo airstrip which is approximately a 30 minute game drive from camp.
