OVERVIEW

Meno A Kwena is a fun camp where you can switch off your phone (there’s no Wi-Fi), take off your shoes and let your children relax on your large deck overlooking the Boteti River. In fact, if you want to see wildlife, you could stay at your tent all day, watching the passing parade of plains game below you. But there is much to tempt you out, including a floating hide, the chance to walk with Bushmen and, in season, sleep-outs on beautiful Makgadikgadi Pan.

Meaning ‘teeth of the crocodile’, Meno (as it’s known) is an easy drive from Maun and the perfect way to ease into a Botswana safari. Rustic touches include an old parachute as the roof of the mess tent!
