Kichwa Tembo airport, established in the mid-1990s, is a small regional gateway serving Amboseli and the surrounding safari lodges with a single modest passenger terminal and simple facilities. It’s an important access point for travelers seeking Kilimanjaro views and wildlife, with regular charter and regional connections to Nairobi (typically Wilson) and other southern Kenya airstrips; road transfers to nearby towns and lodges take a few hours depending on terrain. Flights and transfers tend to be reasonably priced compared with main international hubs, though peak safari season can drive fares up, and the field is commonly used by regional carriers and safari operators such as Safarilink and AirKenya.
Arrive cash‑ready: this tiny bush airstrip has no exchange counters or ATMs, though nearby camps accept Kenyan shillings and often USD for tips. Withdraw or change money in Nairobi (or Narok en route) for better rates and fewer fees, and carry small, newer USD notes just in case.
No duty‑free at Kichwa Tembo’s tiny airstrip, so plan to browse in Nairobi’s international terminal instead. After passport control or by baggage claim on arrival, you’ll find multi‑brand shops with beauty, whisky, chocolate, and Kenyan teas often priced a notch below city malls.
Pack a snack: this tiny bush airstrip has no formal eateries, so most travelers rely on lodge‑packed breakfast or picnic boxes, with only the occasional kiosk for drinks. Nearby camps can arrange Kenyan coffee, samosas, or a quick lunch by prior request—tasty, though pricier than in Nairobi.
First-aid support sits right by the check‑in shelter at Kichwa Tembo’s bush airstrip and is available while flights are operating. For medications, COVID testing, or more advanced care, lodge staff can arrange what you need, with basic help usually free and additional services billed.
No lockers at this tiny bush airstrip, but your lodge or safari operator will securely hold extra bags, with Nairobi hotels and storage services handling anything you leave in the city. Camp storage is typically free; city options run about $5–15 per bag per day—bring photo ID and stick to the soft‑bag, ~15 kg limit on light-aircraft flights.
Think a relaxed bush airstrip: one small shaded shelter for all passengers and no formal lounges, with flights clustered in daylight hours. For Wi‑Fi, charging, snacks, or even a shower and a nap, your safari lodge is the go‑to lounge before you hop on the plane.
