Machaba Camp is a family-friendly camp run by a family. Shaun, Elcke & their kids Nala & Khan have been running Machaba Camp since the opening in 2013. The hospitality is unsurpassed & people arrive as guests but leave as part of the Machaba family.
The river view is stunning & the tented accommodation makes you feel connected to the African bush. If you ever dreamt of being in Africa, the Machaba tents will definitely bring out the explorer in you.
The area is a sandy 4×4 area – there are water crossings, thick sandy ridges and basically, all roads are off-road.
There are however no designated 4×4 trails.

Game drives (day & night)
The river Khwai runs in front of the camp. This river is a water source for many animals. We have a resident pod of hippos. Elephants dot the riverine landscape in the winter months. Wild dogs use the camp as part of their hunting grounds. Lions and leopard are regular visitors to the camp as well.
Yes, a 4×4 is needed to get to the camp.
Meno’s location is what makes it unique. It is a hidden gem that is perched on a rocky clifftop above the Boteti River in Botswana. Meno overlooks the Makgadikgadi Pans, National Park, guests can watch the wildlife at the river from the comfort of their private veranda. One of the wildlife highlights is experiencing the zebra migration that is present for much of the year.
Unfortunately, there are no 4×4 trails in the area, but there is a lot of tranquil scenery.

Mma Dinare is an absolutely stunning choice that has views of the Gomoti River and floodplains which help by having different activities all year round such as excellent game viewing.
