The Greater Moremi Area refers to a wider region encompassing the Moremi Game Reserve and the Khwai Concession in Botswana. It boasts a diverse landscape, including mopane woodlands, floodplains, lagoons, papyrus rivers, and acacia forests, supporting a remarkable variety of wildlife. The Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, flows through the region, creating a unique ecosystem that attracts diverse species.

Mankwe, meaning “mother leopard,” is a serene sanctuary situated on a private concession east of the Moremi Game Reserve, just 85 kilometers from the vibrant tourism hub of Maun. A hidden oasis on the edge of a wilderness paradise, Mankwe Tented Camp offers a rare and intimate safari experience in the heart of Botswana. A gateway to the Okavango Delta, Khwai region, and Chobe National Park, Mankwe Tented Camp provides an eco-conscious escape into some of Africa’s most iconic landscapes.

Surrounded by mopane trees and expansive wilderness, Mankwe’s elevated Meru-style tented suites, designed with understated elegance, offer sweeping views of the bush from private decks, blending rustic charm with contemporary comfort. The lodge invites guests to not only engage in exploration—whether through game drives in the concession or safaris into bucket-list reserves—but also to take a step back and truly unwind. Interlinked by elevated wooden walkways, Mankwe offers a variety of tranquil spaces to relax, from the serene poolside to cozy nooks perfect for quiet reflection. Evenings bring the magic of the open-air boma, where stories are shared under a starlit sky, completing each day with moments of connection.

Situated in the southern reaches of Africa, Botswana is renowned for its pristine wilderness areas characterised by deep lagoons, wetlands, lush palms, rugged hills and desert plains scattered with scrubland. The country’s primary tourist drawcard is undoubtedly the vast red expanse of the Kalahari Desert and its remarkably beautiful Okavango Delta, the largest inland delta in the world. These natural wonders provide a tranquil haven for an abundance of African wildlife to thrive. Other highlights include the impressive Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, where visitors are privy to massive zebra migrations during the flood season; the Savuti plains, which host large prides of lions; and the Tsodilo Hills, where 4500 rock paintings form a unique record of human settlement over many millennia.
