Meno-A-Kwena: A Wildlife Haven Overlooking the Boteti River

Meno-A-Kwena Tented Camp, meaning 'teeth of the crocodile' in the local language, is a unique safari camp located on tribal land bordering the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park in Botswana. Perched on a cliff overlooking the Boteti River, it offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and the diverse wildlife that congregates there. The camp features ten classic safari tents, each with en-suite bathrooms and private verandas. The tents are designed with locally woven fabrics and colonial-era furnishings, providing a comfortable and stylish experience. The main area includes a lounge, dining area, and a plunge pool built of rock, all offering panoramic views of the Boteti River and the national park. What makes Meno-A-Kwena special is its location on the transition zone between the Okavango Delta and the Kalahari Desert. This allows for a diverse range of wildlife sightings, including zebras, wildebeest, elephants, giraffes, and various bird species. During the dry season, the Boteti River becomes a vital water source, attracting large concentrations of animals that can be observed right from the camp. Guests can enjoy guided game drives in the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, cultural walks with Bushmen, boat cruises on the Boteti River, and wildlife viewing from a floating hide. For a truly immersive experience, overnight stargazing sleep-outs in the Makgadikgadi Pans are also available. The camp is committed to sustainable tourism, using solar power and sourcing water from the river.
