Wilderness Mokete, Botswana – Opened July 2024

“A thrilling new Botswana adventure awaits.”

Mokete is anything but conventional, with their goal being to best facilitate unique, immersive wildlife encounters. This means that plans are dictated by nature. Located in the Mababe Depression, which is south of Chobe National Park, and east of Moremi Game Reserve and Okavango Delta, Mababe is the nearest water source for thousands of animals in the dry season and a permanent marshland fed by the perennial Mababe River. It’s not uncommon to witness large buffalo herds, hundreds of tsessebe antelope and of course the predators, including large prides of lions.

Mokete can accommodate eighteen guests across nine tents and runs 100% on solar energy to minimise the environmental footprint. Walls have been forgone here, instead opting for canvas, and a sliding roof for you to revel in the star-studded night sky. Your senses will be delighted with sights and sounds, all from the comfort of your tent.
