Kicheche Valley Camp

Picture

Country:  Kenya

Location: Masai Mara Game Reserve
 
Style: Luxury Tented Camp

Kicheche Valley Camp is set on the eastern side of the Naboisho Conservancy in a beautiful secluded valley dotted with acacia trees.

The diverse habitat of acacia woodlands, savannah grassland plains, riverine acacia forest and rocky undulating hills supports a wide range of wildlife which includes giraffe, elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, buffalo, hippo, crocodile, and a large variety of antelope.   Some of the more rare species sighted here are aardvark, caracal, serval cat, aardwolf, wild dog and black rhino.

The camp consists of 6 luxurious tented suites on platforms tucked in between granite outcrops and trees with breathtaking views of the game filled valley below.  

These fully insect-proof style tents are equipped with large beds, bedside tables, desk, sofa, luggage racks and rugs.  Bathrooms are en suite and equipped with a dresser, shower and flushing toilet, fixed shower and hot and cold and running water.

The large and spacious lounge tent overlooks a natural spring, with its comfortable local furnishings and informative collection of reference books.   A souvenir shop offers a selection of clothing, maps and miscellaneous items.

All meals and drinks are served in the spacious lounge/dining tent, or al-fresco in the shade of an olive tree.  The cuisine is Western/European with occasional African dishes.  Special dietary requirements can be catered for.

This region is also a birder’s paradise where white headed buffalo weavers, northern white-crowned shrike, pigmy falcon, Von-der Deckens hornbills, and bush pipits are commonly seen.

Rigid daily schedules are not on the agenda at Kicheche Valley, allowing you to decide on the duration and frequency of your game drives.   Picnic breakfasts, lunches and sundowner drinks are popular options to include on game drives.   Night game drives are also possible.

A different perspective is gained through escorted walks on the savannah.

Viewing wildlife at close range, but without encroaching on their space, is endlessly fascinating and the guides’ instincts and experience provide superb photo opportunities of wild animals.

You can visit one of the local Masai villages during which there will be an interpretive talk and some traditional dancing.   Locally made souvenirs are also on sale.

Additional activities on offer are hot air ballooning and escorted walking safaris with overnight stays in a fly-camp in the bush.  These excursions are led by one of Kicheche’s senior guides and an armed ranger. 

Safety is of paramount importance and therefore askaris (night-watchmen) patrol Kicheche Valley Camp at regular intervals after dark.   You are advised to remain in your tent after dark, and will be escorted between your tent and the lounge/dining areas by a staff member. 

Each tent is equipped with a whistle to call for assistance in case of emergency.

Children are welcome, but parents must be aware that the camp is not fenced and no additional facilities are available to occupy them outside the normal excursions.
