The staff at all the camps were wonderful but we found the Bush Camp staff led by Sharon the best.

"Kicheche Bush Camp review"
More convenient to game drives than the Serengetti with better roads and shorter grass throughout. The freedom to go off-road because it was a conservancy also significantly enhanced the accessibility of the animals.
The guide was great at finding fairly large groups of animals such as elephants and hippos. The experience of eating breakfast in a lush valley surrounded by 20+ elephants was magical.
We did get stuck twice but other cars were there in only a few minutes to rescue us." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania; 7n in Kenya
"Kicheche Bush Camp review"
There was a real attention to detail and everyone did a very good job coping with the unexpected rain, including flooding that limited some travel and required the camp to host people temporarily who were unable to get to their own destinations. They were excellent in responding to guest needs, managing water bottle, dealing with dietary needs, and arranging for terrific bush breakfasts and sundowners in addition to the regular buffet lunch and sitdown dinners at camp.
Our guide Benja was first rate, somewhat reserved but extremely capable, easy to understand, responsive to our interests, an excellent driver who had to cope with some pretty bad conditions, including becoming stuck in the mud at one point and having to arrange a tow from another vehicle sent out from the camp.
Benja was creative in finding ways to follow a family of cheetah that were having trouble finding a prey, finally succeeding on our last day. Thanks to Benja, we also had several encounters with a large group of lions, with a number of playful cubs. We saw a very wide variety of birds, a couple spring hares, and several different kinds of antelopes." See all these reviews: 13n in Kenya

And yet--boots in place, umbrellas at the ready, everyone carried on. It made it into an intense, beautiful, often exhausting experience.
Our guide deserves super kudos for driving us through super challenging conditions (and we'll never tell that he did get stuck one morning), all while spotting wildlife with ease. A real master." See all these reviews: 13n in Kenya

The Kicheche branding was visible in the fixtures and ethos of the camp.
Another excellent camp. Good staff. Good guiding.
Some exceptional sightings including the most prolonged leopard encounter we have had.
Also really big herds of elephant, zebra, topi. And lots of lions!" See all these reviews: 20n in Kenya

The scenery is wonderful with some spectacular views of the Great Rift Valley.
The standard of the accommodation, guiding, hospitality and food were superb and I was made to feel at home. Every drive was a wonderful experience and expertly guided.
Kicheche properties are very welcoming for solo travelers." See all these reviews: 17n in Kenya
