ACCOMMODATION

Perched dramatically on a rocky clifftop overlooking the Boteti River, Meno a Kwena offers one of Botswana’s most distinctive safari settings. Located on the western boundary of Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, the camp lies between the lush Okavango Delta and the vast Kalahari landscapes, creating an experience defined by striking contrasts and extraordinary wildlife encounters. Throughout the dry season, immense herds of zebra, elephant and wildebeest gather below camp at the riverbanks, transforming the view from each tent into a constantly unfolding safari spectacle.

The camp features a collection of beautifully styled canvas tents positioned along the ridge, each offering sweeping river views from private verandas. Interiors evoke the romance of classic African exploration, blending vintage safari influences with understated contemporary comfort. En-suite bathrooms, indoor and outdoor showers, natural textures and carefully curated antiques reinforce the property’s timeless atmosphere while preserving an intimate connection to the surrounding wilderness.

The main guest areas combine elegant lounge spaces, open-air dining and relaxed firepit settings overlooking the river below. Cuisine is generous and refined, served in a convivial safari atmosphere beneath canvas and thatch. Between activities, guests may unwind beside the camp’s natural rock plunge pool while observing wildlife movements along the water’s edge.

Experiences extend far beyond traditional game drives. Guests may explore the Makgadikgadi Pans, enjoy guided walks with San Bushmen, venture onto seasonal boating excursions, or spend hours inside the camp’s renowned floating hide for exceptionally intimate photographic encounters. Meno a Kwena delivers a deeply atmospheric safari rooted in authenticity, wilderness and old-world Botswana charm.
