Set on the edge of the Makgadikgadi National Park, close to Khumaga Village, Boteti River Camp is ideally located for access not only to the Makgadikgadi Pans but also to Nxai Pan National Park and the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. The Boteti River is an important seasonal water source in this arid region and Boteti River Camp enjoys outstanding views over the riverbed and beautiful wilderness surrounds. There are seven comfy chalets which are all airconditioned and feature en suite bathrooms with outdoor shower and loo. One platform tent – elevated on poles 4 meters above ground level – has an open-air shower and toilet at ground level with the bedroom upstairs. The platform tent is not airconditioned. The central camp facilities are made up of a bar, viewing lounge deck and swimming pool, all being ideal relaxation spots. Tasty, homestyle meals are served in the restaurant. A great array of wildlife crosses the immense salt pans to reach the Boteti River water sources. Visitors may choose to explore this unique area in their own vehicles (4x4 vehicles essential), however activities offered at Boteti River Camp aim to enrich guests’ game and cultural experiences. These include game drives in both the Makgadikgadi National Park and Nxai Pan National Park as well as cultural village walking tours (all activities and park fees at additional cost, please refer to basis booked). Return road transfers from Maun are also available at additional cost. Boteti River Camp also offers eight campsites, all with water connection, fire place and a shade net roof beneath which self-contained travelers can set up their own tents. Ablutions and washing up areas are shared for the campsites. One Meru tent is set up in the campground with bedding and towels (these are the only items provided). The Meru Tent is open from July to October annually.
