The quick flight only lasted an hour or so, but it felt like a bonus aerial safari. This prime seat gave me excellent views out of the plane’s side and front windows. I settled in and sat directly behind the co-pilot. The host then took the extra bag to a nearby office and stored it safely until my return.Īs I waited near the tiny airport cafe, sipping a cappuccino, my flight was called to board right on schedule. I sorted everything out into what I would need on my safari and what would stay behind. Luckily, my host provided a large bag to fill with any items I wouldn’t need to bring to Kichwa Tembo. That said, I was traveling with far too much luggage to bring it all with me on safari. Kilimanjaro, in Tanzania, soaked up some rays on the warm sunny beaches of Zanzibar, and then trekked with mountain gorillas in Uganda. Over the previous 3 weeks, I had summited Mt. Throughout my month-long journey through East Africa, I was carrying a substantial amount of clothing and gear.

Therefore, it’s essential to plan ahead and pack smart when taking an African safari (more on this later). It’s important to note that weight restrictions on small safari planes significantly limit the amount of luggage you can bring. Once there, a host from &Beyond greeted me and carried my bags inside. After a night in Nairobi, a car arrived at my hotel the next morning and shuttled me to the airport. The Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp sits far off the beaten path, right on the edge of the Maasai Mara. A safari really is that rare type of adventure that truly offers something for everyone. The company describes the camp as “Classical Kenyan Safari Redefined.” Kichwa Tembo offers everything you could possibly want or need for an unbelievable safari experience.

It does not store any personal data.&Beyond considers the Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp a mid-luxury offering.
