Kicheche Mara Camp
Nestled in a secluded valley within the Mara North Conservancy, Kicheche Mara offers an authentic safari experience with exceptional wildlife encounters and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Life in Camp
Kicheche Mara Camp is a classic tented camp hidden in a beautiful valley in a prime wildlife area of the Mara North Conservancy. The camp features just eight tents, ensuring an intimate and personalized experience. Each tent is comfortably furnished with en-suite bathrooms and offers stunning views over the Olare Orok stream and the surrounding plains. The camp’s location allows for excellent game viewing right from your doorstep, with frequent sightings of elephants, lions, and other wildlife. The communal areas include a cozy lounge and dining tent, where guests can share stories of the day’s adventures. With its commitment to eco-friendly practices and community involvement, Kicheche Mara Camp provides a safari experience that is both luxurious and responsible.
Timing Your Trip
For photographers and wildlife enthusiasts, March, April, and November offer dramatic skies and lush landscapes, providing excellent backdrops for photography. The January and February months are ideal for those seeking to enjoy warm, sunny days and cooler evenings, perfect for relaxation between game drives. Visiting during these times also means fewer tourists, allowing for a more exclusive and serene safari experience. Those hoping to see the migration should visit in August but be aware that tourist numbers are significant and this will affect both costs and your safari experience.

Will's Ideal Pairing
"I love this part of the Mara, the acacia forest, the vierw along the escarpment, there's so much to enjoy. For those looking to continue their Mara experience head on to another Kicheche property, Valley Camp, or head on up to Kicheche Laikipia and meet the last two northern white rhinos."
