Nestled within the enchanting Matthews Forest lies Kitich Camp, an oasis of tranquility and luxury amidst the wilderness. Our recent stay at Kitich Camp was an unforgettable journey into the heart of nature, where every moment felt like a dream come true.
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and genuine smiles from the staff, setting the tone for an exceptional experience ahead. Our days were filled with exploration and adventure, as we embarked on captivating walks through the cloud forest. Led by knowledgeable guides, every step revealed the hidden treasures of this biodiverse ecosystem, from rare flora to elusive fauna.
One of the highlights of our stay was the fly camping experience, an exhilarating adventure that allowed us to immerse ourselves fully in the wilderness. With camels carrying our belongings, we embarked on a journey into the depths of nature, far from the distractions of our modern life back in London. Under the vast expanse of the starlit sky, we dined on delicious, globally inspired, cuisine prepared by the camp's talented chefs, savouring every bite amidst the serenity of our surroundings. We had anticipated losing a few pounds during our stay, but rather three courses greeted us each evening prepared by the amazing chef and we were lolled to sleep by full bellies! Drawing inspiration from local ingredients and flavors, each meal was a culinary masterpiece that delighted the senses - from Chocolate souffle to an Indian curry array. Whether it was breakfast overlooking the forest canopy or dinner by the campfire, every dining experience was a celebration of gastronomic delight.
But perhaps the most luxurious aspect of our stay was the accommodation itself. The tents at Kitich Camp redefine the concept of camping, offering unparalleled comfort and elegance in the heart of nature. Tastefully furnished with plush bedding and thoughtful amenities (including hot showers!), our tents provided a sanctuary of relaxation after a day of adventure.
Of course, no African Safari would be complete without encounters with wildlife, and Kitich Camp did not disappoint. From the melodious calls of exotic birds to the majestic presence of roaming mammals, every moment spent in the company of nature was a reminder of the beauty and wonder of the natural world. Contrasting our other experiences of Safaris across Kenya, Kitich offers the opportunity to be freed of 4 wheels (if desired) and under the guidance and protection of local guides we were able to explore on two feet, with a renewed appreciation of African beauty.
In conclusion, our stay at Kitich Camp in Matthews Forest was nothing short of extraordinary. Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or simply a connection with nature, this hidden gem in Kenya offers an experience unlike any other. With its impeccable service, luxurious amenities, and unparalleled natural beauty, Kitich Camp truly is a destination worth discovering.
P.S. we couldn't believe the quality of the WiFi signal too that sadly kept us connected to our lives back home!
