Overview

A Timeless Safari at the Edge of the Mara River.

Masai Mara Classic – Kichwa Tembo is a short, beautifully paced safari that delivers exactly what the Masai Mara is famous for: big cats, open plains, dramatic river crossings, and exceptional guiding.

Your journey begins with a complimentary overnight stay at Villa Rosa Kempinski Nairobi, allowing you to rest, reset, and transition smoothly into safari mode. From there, you fly into the heart of the Masai Mara, staying at andBeyond Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp, a long-standing icon set along the Saparingo River at the edge of the Oloololo Escarpment.
This is the Mara as it has always been done, and always should be.

You leave with exactly what you came for: the Masai Mara, done right.

Why We Love This Journey

No one who has stood at the edge of the Sabaringo River – watching a pride move through the morning mist – has ever called it ordinary. Kichwa Tembo is a Mara institution for a reason. The guiding is sharp, the position is prime, and the camp has earned its place in the story of East African safari. We recommend it because it consistently delivers the one thing every Mara traveler comes for: the feeling that the wild is right outside your tent, because it is.
