Kicheche Mara Camp is a classic tented camp hidden in a grove of wild olive and croton trees in a prime wildlife area of the northern Mara plains. The camp is small and retains an exclusive feel. The camp prides itself on offering a friendly and relaxing stay, with the hosts treating you as welcome guests, not mere travel statistics. To maintain this intimate and relaxed atmosphere there is a maximum limit of twenty-two guests in-house at any time.
The majority of the tents are in secluded positions overlooking the plains and nearby hills, while others are closer together for families or friends. Triple and Quad tents (1 double and 2 single beds) are also available. Each tent is comfortably furnished with an en-suite bathroom and flushing toilet.
The spacious Nyati tent acts as the camp lounge with comfortable seating, a library, board games, cards, and local crafts.
