Much like their sister camp, Kicheche Valley, we would be on a conservancy while at Kicheche Bush Camp. And the accommodations were just as lush and enjoyable. Although in this case, all six tents were occupied, which gave it a very different feel with lots of socializing at lunch and dinner.

When our agent asked if we were interested in a walking safari and staying in a fly camp, I don’t think any of us paused before saying, yes, please!

From Lewa Conservancy, we made our way on another scheduled chartered flight to the Masai Mara area in Kenya, specifically to Kicheche Valley Camp in the Naboisho Conservancy.

We were sad to leave Rwanda, but excited for our next stop: The Lewa Conservancy. Lewa is known for its rhino population, both black and white. This would be my mom and Kel's first “real” safari outside of South Africa. I was as excited about going on safari as I was to share the experience with them.
