Set on a private concession with abundant iconic wildlife and panoramic Masai Mara views, Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp dazzles with its contemporary safari feel.
Kichwa Tembo Camp, like its sister Bateleur Camp, lies in the western Mara in a private concession leased from its Maasai landlords. Fewer visitors come to this region, and although the landscape is filled with wild animals all year, you are assured of more private viewings. The property lies directly on the path of the annual Great Wildebeest Migration. During the migration season, you are likely to get the best sightings of the stampeding animals crossing the Mara River, the stuff of documentaries worldwide.
With timeless interiors that are simple yet sophisticated and stylish, the Camp enhances guests’ sense of privacy and enjoyment. 12 Classic tents, 20 Superior tents and eight Superior View tents are laid out on immaculate grounds, with leisurely groups of warthogs feeding right outside the tent doors. Maasai-inspired interiors firmly entrench &BEYOND Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp as the unrivalled luxury tented camp of its size in the more outstanding Mara.
At first glance, Kichwa Tembo feels more like a hotel you might find in Palm Springs than a safari lodge, with its sexy lounge area, open-air restaurant, and luxurious swimming pool—save for the warthogs that roam the property and expansive views of the Mara plains.
Going on safari is the ultimate celebration of the senses. Taste, touch, sight, sound... ideally, your safari should be appealing at every level. The &Beyond Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp takes huge strides to tick all your boxes.
