OUR SAFARI CAMPS

- LUXURY & COMFORT IN THE HEART OF RUAHA -

OUR CAMPS

Our camps are rustic and blend in perfect harmony with their surroundings with a complete eco-friendly philosophy.  Kichaka prides itself in operating in tough, remote and wild areas where the main emphasis is on the bush itself instead of opulent extravagance.  Nonetheless, even out here all the necessary luxuries are fully catered for by way of our small and intimate mobile bush camps mixing the right amount of wild adventure with a secluded and truly authentic safari getaway.  

From the back-to-basics nature of our flycamp to the more sophisticated luxury of our seasonal mobile camp you will never be more than a stone's throw away from a hot bucket-shower with stunning scenic views, a comfortable bed to retire in after a hard day, friendly hosts, good food and most importantly, ice-filled Gin and Tonics to welcome in the cool of the starry nights.

Where to Stay

KICHAKA Frontier

LUXURY & COMFORT IN THE HEART OF WILDERNESS

Our pioneer style camp is the main base of the Kichaka Expeditions operations and as close as we could get to calling a 'home'.  Our seasonal Frontier camp has a 'leave no trace' doctrine.  Essentially there are no permanent fixtures here, the entire operation can and does occasionally relocate to completely new areas leaving absolutely no sign that man was there in the first place.  

About as comfortable as it is possible to get in such isolation, the seasonal camp has 3 en-suite spacious, open, airy and well furnished tents holding a maximum of only 8 guests at a time providing one of Africa's more intimate bush experiences and a comfortable base to explore the surrounding wildlife and terrain by both foot and vehicle.  

The camp is backed up with a large and well appointed mess tent where guests can lounge away swapping the days stories over ice cold beverages and three-course meals while being attended to by our hosts and their team of friendly and enthusiastic staff.

EXPLORE YOUR WILD SIDE

FLYCAMPING

Perhaps the most raw and traditional way to enhance any safari experience.  Mobility is the key here, our well designed and lightweight flycamp allows for a few days foray into the really wild sections of Ruaha Park, it can be erected within a few hours and allows us to drift deeper into the Wilderness once we have familiarized ourselves with the areas around the seasonal camp.  

Kichaka Untamed easily opens up fresh walking and exploration areas without the need to travel big distances several times daily to return to our Frontier camp.  Simple and basic yet perfectly comfortable, the flycamp can accommodate 6 guests in 3 tents each with adjoining private bucket showers and toilets.  Travel cots ensure a good nights sleep, waking only for the night sounds before a full days exploration.  With a feel of complete informality, meals will be fresh prepared on the camp fire itself while you nurse a cold beer and contemplate the next days activities.
