Perched on a rocky clifftop above the Boteti River, the only permanent water source for miles, Meno a Kwena boasts some of Botswana’s finest ‘armchair’ game viewing. Each canvas tent enjoys magnificent views of the river and the animals that drink from it, as well as lovely bathrooms with authentic African showers. The camp has other look-out points, including a floating hide on the river where you can spy pied kingfishers and African jacanas. The lounge and dining tents are steeped in old world charm, piled high with books, trinkets and old-world artefacts.

Situated halfway between the lush Okavango Delta and the drier southern regions, Meno a Kwena is perfectly positioned for exploring both the Nxai Pan and Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. Activities include early morning nature walks with San bushmen, exceptional 4×4 game drives and tranquil boat rides along the Boteti River where large herds of wildebeest and zebra, elephant, giraffe and antelope congregate. The natural rock plunge pool provides welcome respite between your safari adventures.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with ºÃÉ«ÏÈÉúTV and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”
Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, ºÃÉ«ÏÈÉúTV stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.
