Kicheche Mara Camp

Vintage A lodge or tented camp with very good food and service, and many have swimming pools. The rooms/tents are of good size but perhaps not as large as "Classic" properties. Facilities could be "Classic," but located in a sub-standard game viewing area.

The Kicheche Mara Camp, located in the Mara North Conservancy, prides itself on offering a friendly and relaxing stay, with the hosts treating you as welcomed guests. Each of the 8 tents is comfortably furnished with an en suite bathroom and flushing toilet, low wattage lighting is supplied 24-hours. The tents are in secluded positions overlooking the Olare Orok stream. The spacious Nyati tent acts as the camp lounge with comfortable seating, a library, board games, cards and local crafts.

Early morning and late afternoon game drives are offered as well as escorted walks on the savannah. You can visit one of the local Maasai villages to see first hand their way of life. A village guide or your Kicheche guide will give you an interpretive talk during your visit. (There is a charge of $10 per person.) Kicheche's Community Project supports two local schools - Olkimitare Nursery School & Aitong Primary Academy.
