Kenya Visitors Guide

Transportation

Kichwa Tembo is easily accessible by scheduled flight from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport, followed by a 25-minute road transfer to camp. There are daily international flights from Europe and South Africa to Nairobi. We can pre-book and package all of your regional/internal flights and transfers, and provide a meet and greet service at all airports.

wildlife

In addition to the annual Great Migration of hundreds of thousands of animals from Tanzania into the Masai Mara National Reserve, Kichwa Tembo offers excellent year-round game viewing - including elephant, lion, rhino, leopard, buffalo, cheetah, hippo, giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, warthog, olive baboon, Thomsons’s gazelle, Grant’s gazelle, crocodile and 450 bird species.

Children

Children under 11 are warmly welcome at Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp. Regrettably, for safety reasons, children under 11 cannot be accommodated at Bateleur Camp. Recommended age for children on safari in Kenya is eight years and older. An extra bed can be arranged for one child (11 and under) sharing the parents’ tent. Babysitting services are offered at Tented Safari Camp at an additional charge.

Activities depend entirely on the age of the children and may include the following:

Special family game-drives (at the discretion of the lodge manager and subject to availability)

Special one-hour children's bush walks within the camp perimeter

Planet Manager activity books

Special programmes can be compiled such as tracking for children, fishing, frog safaris and birding

Children’s meals and menus available

ll &Beyond lodges are world-renowned for their delicious Pan-African cuisine – fresh ingredients, simply prepared with an African flavour. All our vegetables are grown in the camp’s shamba (vegetable garden). Visits to the shamba are a highlight for many guests.

health

Please consult your physician or health department for the latest health and anti-malarial precautions. Some countries require advance inoculations (and certificates thereof) – we will advise you of these.

Emergency medical evacuation insurance is included in the rate at all &Beyond lodges. This guarantees all reasonable and practical assistance in obtaining primary or emergency medical services for an insured person who suffers illness or injury. Please note that this is evacuation insurance only and does not replace normal travel insurance. Trained first-aiders are on standby at the camp at all times, and emergency evacuation by air is available.
