    Getting There

    Air Transfer

    The primary way to access Kwetsani Camp is by a light aircraft transfer from Maun Airport (MUB) to Jao Airstrip. Mack Air typically operates these shuttle flights. A seat in a plane ticket costs between US$220 and US$260 per person, each way. From Jao Airstrip, a representative from Kwetsani Camp will transfer you to the camp by vehicle or boat, depending on water levels; this final transfer takes approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes.

    Local tips

    Pack light, as luggage restrictions apply to the small aircraft transfers to the camp: 20kg in a soft duffel bag is the general rule.
    Inquire about water levels in advance to understand which activities (land or water-based) will be most prominent during your visit.
    Bring binoculars to enhance your wildlife viewing experience, especially for birdwatching.
    Consider visiting during the shoulder season (May/June) for good weather and potentially lower prices.
