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 91³Ô¹Ï 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.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”
This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!
