description o f
lodge:Kichwa Tembo is situated at the foot of the Oloololo
Escarpment on the western border of the Masai Mara Reserve in
southwestern Kenya. Meaning ‘Head of the Elephant’ in KiSwahili,
Kichwa Tembo is located on a private concession leased from Maasai
landlords in the exclusive western Mara – much less crowded than the
eastern part of the Reserve.
In addition to an excellent year-round concentration of animals,
Kichwa Tembo lies directly in the path of Africa’s spectacular Great
Migration of hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebra from the
Serengeti, Tanzania, to the Masai Mara in Kenya. This is indeed
nature at her most theatrical, offering you an African wildlife
experience unsurpassed in the world.
Kichwa Tembo’s
spacious canvas safari tents offer magical views over the Masai Mara
grasslands or the Sabaringo River. The main thatched guest areas
include a welcoming bar/sitting area, indoor and outdoor dining
areas and a well-stocked gift shop featuring African art, artefacts
and safari-wear. The swimming pool is perfect for laid-back game
viewing whilst cooling off.
Relax in the candlelit bar in the evening before enjoying delicious
Pan-African cuisine served alfresco style outdoors or in the main
dining area. Private dining and exciting bush banquets may be
arranged on request.
