SPECTACULAR WILDLIFE SIGHTINGS

spot of the week

A Shot in the Dark

For a photographer or anyone who appreciates those really special, precious, and often fleeting wildlife moments, it is best to be alert just after dawn or as the sun drops for the day. A lot needs to line up for this to work but this is where the Kicheche magicians take control.

Where there’s fieldcraft, there’s witchcraft

Enter Zarek Cockar, a rare high carat gold certified guide setting the gold standard with some of our seasoned guides he describes as 'some of the best in the business.' He's right but, as Patrick would proclaim: every day is a school day and Zarek spent a week with the supposed C-list species bringing them out of the wings into the limelight.

2023 Chris and Paul

Not everyone who arrives at Kicheche even has a camera, many believing that magical wildlife moments are best recorded by memory rather than megapixels, but a good number love this popular yet deeply frustrating hobby.

In a Prickle

Early, Acacia pride quartering the plains near KMC ... the sun is yet to wake and these cats are hungry for anything? Perhaps not this.

Little and Large

One Conservancy and two events worthy of documentation. Kulete, favoured cheetah of Olare and Naboisho has FINALLY revealed her hand, or indeed her brood, appearing within minutes of camp with three tiny spotty balls of fluff. She has managed to elude the many looking for her in the previous weeks. Top work Charles for chivvying them from their lair and nice work Nancie for lining them up in her viewfinder.

Calf Strain

Just because Naboisho Conservancy has the highest population of giraffes anywhere in Africa does not mean they should be taken for granted. Mika Kaleku is one of Kicheche's longest-serving and most charismatic guides. He has made Naboisho his own and is enormously popular. However, his DNA is woven with a deep spirituality and indeed burning sense of proprietariness towards this beautiful parcel of land.

My group LOVED everything about the camp, the staff, guides and food. It was just perfect, the best experience !
Suzi Eszterhas
As a tour leader I have stayed at many camps in East Africa and I can honestly say Kicheche Mara is in the top due to its guides and it’s hospitality. An important factor for me also is its special accommodations for photographers. I plan many return visits.
