Kicheche Valley: picture gallery


Kicheche Valley  Camp's main dining-lounge area has a beautiful location…
…with views across the valley…
…and plenty of opportunties to just absorb your environment.
Dense bush comes right up to the back of the camp…
…and the guest tents, mounted on platforms on the hillside, have untrammelled views.
The dining and lounge area is comfortably furnished in neutral colours…
with different areas including a telescope to spot game from the comfort of an armchair.
Guests normally dine with the manager who hosts each meal.
The bedrooms are spacious with some having an extra bed...
and are screened from each other by a rustic wooden fence.
On your private deck two comfy chairs and a table offer a private game viewing area.
You're never in doubt that you're in the bush, however, with big, airy windows all around…
…and a sense that the conservancy in all its wildness starts literally on your doorstep.
Back in the tents, the bathrooms are comfortable with double washbasins…
and separate shower cubicle.
…and completely dependable flush toilets.
Filtered drinking water is provided in each tent.
The afternoon game drive usually includes sundowner drinks to end another lovely day in the bush.
