Travel reviews by Matt from Warrington

"Excellent hotel for our short stay prior to catching our internal flight to the Mara the following day.

Close to the new express way for linking to Wilson Airport without traffic delays."

"All aspects of Kicheche Camps are simply perfect from location, accomnodation, vehicles, guides and all staff, just wonderful and nothing is too much trouble."

"Kicheche Mara was everything i had hoped for and more.

Wonderful and caring staff, excellent food, superb guide/driver, accommodation of the highest of standard, it is hospitality at its very best.

The location could not of been better, watching elephants from the veranda of your tent just shows how well immersed the camp is within its surroundings. Waking up in the morning to hear that hippos and elephant have wandered past your tent whilst you sleep only adds to this wonderful experience

The vehicles are superbly maintained and perfect for wildlife viewing and for photographers.

Guides are all of the highest standard and work so hard to enable clients to get the very most out of their time at camp. They understand photographers and position their vehicles perfectly for light and composition, working tirelessly so you come back with a smile and memories to last a lifetime."

"Great hotel, very well situated for a quick ride after a long flight.

Staff all very accommodating and pleasant.."

"What can i say about Lewa House. Sophie and Calum are such wonderful hosts, the whole place is amazing and you are made to feel at home from the very first second you arrive.

The location is just draw dropping and our little pod was just stunning, overlooking the valley and waterhole, hugely spacious and very very homely.

All the staff go way way above and beyond to help you in any way they can, always polite, always a big smile, just brilliant individuals all of them.

Joseph my guide was just the best, i knew he would be, this was a second visit for me so i had requested that he be my guide alongside sole occupancy of a vehicle which was all accommodated. He did everything he could against my every request, we had so much fun and lots of laughs along the way. Joseph is hugely knowledgeable and this resulted in some amazing encounters with Lewa's wildlife and he worked so hard to get me in the best position for photography. He is very knowledgeable about light direction and where best to place the vehicle, this is such a big advantage for anyone who goes with photography in mind.

We ended up spending so much time on game drives (our choice) we never had any downtime. We got up earlier, came back later and stayed out all day, when we felt like that was the best option, taking breakfast with us. Joseph accommodated it all and we worked together and came away with amazing images like no other place in Africa can achieve, for Rhino at least.

A huge thanks to Sophie, Calum, Jospeh and all at Lewa House for making this the perfect stay, it now feels like home when i arrive and it's always a heavy heart when i leave. The perfect place, hosted by amazing hosts and it's just the best place i have ever stayed in Africa, i know i will be back."
