Your Private Safari Camp on the Boteti River

A small safari camp for up to 8 guests on the high bank of the Boteti River, opposite Makgadikgadi Pans National Park in Botswana.

Naledi Camp
THE CAMP

A small camp on the Boteti River

Naledi Camp has one treehouse and three safari tents for a maximum of 8 guests. The camp sits on the high bank of the Boteti, about 20 m above the riverbed, with the national park on the other side of the river.

Days start early with coffee on the deck and end at the fire under a clear night sky. Our team cooks for you, guides you and looks after you personally.

Maximum of 8 guests

Naledi Camp hosts at most 8 guests in the treehouse and three safari tents.

That means quiet decks, meals cooked for you and activities planned around your group. Families and small groups can also book the entire camp.

All-Inclusive: meals and drinks

The river in view from the camp

Naledi Camp sits on the high bank of the Boteti, about 20 m above the riverbed.

From the decks you look down onto the river. With some luck you see elephants, hippos and kudu at the water without leaving camp. For lions and other big game, plan a safari into the national park.

Safaris from the Boteti River

KT guides every safari, always for a full day: in your own 4x4 or in our camp car. Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, right across the river, is our first recommendation; on stays of 3 nights or more, Nxai Pan National Park and Baines' Baobabs are possible when conditions allow. Park and ferry fees are paid at the gate. Mokoro trips on the Boteti last about 2–3 hours when the water level allows. Wildlife sightings are possible but never guaranteed.
