Kichwa Tempo was perfection and more! It felt like we were arriving at the home of good friends. Such a special feel here - loved the design, the grounds, the view, the feeling of space. And the people!!! We were absolutely blown away by their warmth, their beautiful smiles (always!) and their attention to us having the perfect experience. The surprises were so much fun (you’ll see)! It felt good to support their mandate of sustainability, care for the wildlife, the land and the people - such admirable and welcome goals.
Our guide Robert was fabulous and our safaris - from first to last were a thrill. A big thank you to Robert for your enthusiasm, your expert driving, your incredible knowledge and sense of fun.
The food was excellent and beautifully presented. We loved our candlelit tables at night and our lunches and bkfsts overlooking the lawn, always attentively and thoughtfully presided over by Edward. So appreciated charming Chef Edmund’s attention to my gluten free needs. Thanks also to DanCan our room steward for your special touches and to Riana for your conscientious oversight and enthusiasm always. Thanks too to the Masai men who were always so personable and ready to escort us to our tent at night. Communication amongst the staff was exceptional. Steph, I wish I could wake up to your bird calls every day!
Our introduction to the Masai here brought us deeper into a fascinating world we didn’t anticipate getting to know so well. Loved their dancing and later on in the trip, learning about the Masai culture.
The welcomes and goodbyes were unforgettable! We were sad to leave these beautiful people and this special, special place.
