Who We Are

Curators of authentic
wilderness experiences

Untamed Places is a proudly independent, 100% Botswana citizen-owned safari company, owned and run by Ronnie & Kefhilwe Mokotedi. Not all safaris are created equal. What makes the difference is rarely the landscape — it’s the people behind it.

Untamed Places is a collection of owner-run camps and lodges. We handle sales, marketing and reservations for every property within our collection, and bring regional expertise to every journey, from flights between camps to road transfers. Guests and travel partners deal with one dedicated team for every booking.

We like to see the world differently. There is always something new to see, even for the most well-travelled guest, and we go looking for it in every place we offer.

Every camp within our collection stays intimate — never more than 16 guests — so each experience feels personal, unhurried and deeply connected to the wild.

Why Untamed Places

What Sets Us Apart

01
Owned & Operated
Every camp and lodge within our collection is owner-run — by people who live in the bush, know it intimately, and have staked everything on getting it right. They care about every guest and every detail.
02
Proudly Botswana
Untamed Places is 100% Botswana citizen-owned. The value created by your safari stays where it belongs — in Botswana. We are not visitors to Botswana’s wilderness. We are part of it.
03
Single Point of Access
One conversation. One relationship. One seamless experience — from first enquiry to final farewell. No juggling multiple operators; just a single trusted point of contact for every camp within our collection.
Travelling With Us

Your Journey, Looked After

Some trips matter more than most — a honeymoon, a family finally together, a safari you have been saving for. We take that seriously. Our Safari Designers live and work in Botswana, and they build every itinerary around how you will actually feel on the road.

Your safety and comfort come first when we plan your route. Botswana is big and its roads are long, so where a drive would eat into your day we will usually put you on a short light-aircraft hop instead. You arrive at camp rested, not worn out from the journey.

Flights between camps and road transfers are booked and coordinated by our team in Maun, so all you have to do is enjoy the journey.

  • Guided mokoro excursions through papyrus channels

At Camp

Comfort at the edge
of the wild

Luxury in the bush doesn't mean disconnection from nature — it means sleeping to the sound of lions, waking to birdsong, and sitting around a fire under an infinite African sky.

  • Fully en-suite tented or lodge accommodation
  • All-inclusive meals, beverages and activities
  • Meals shared with your Safari Guide, talking through the day’s sightings
  • Bespoke private dining and sundowner setups
  • Wildlife photography tips from your Safari Guide

Our Commitment

Protecting the wilderness we share

Every moment our guests take home depends on this wilderness staying intact. We exist because Botswana's wilderness exists. Protecting it isn't optional; it's the entire point.

Low-Impact Operations
Small camps, low guest density, and responsible wildlife management protocols on the concessions where we operate.
Powered by the Sun
Every camp within our collection is built to run on solar power, and all waste is removed off-site.
Conservation & Community Fund
A $10 per person per night levy, shown separately on every invoice, goes into our own Conservation & Community Fund.
Guest Voices

What our guests say

★★★★★

"Even for experienced safari tourists, this is a fantastic lodge. We watched up to 8 different species of mammals at the same time and were lucky to see a wild dog pack at minute one of our arrival. Tents are very comfortable, food very good. A really wonderful experience."

Moira S.
Camp Khwai · TripAdvisor
★★★★★

"Initially I was reticent taking my children on safari but Camp Khwai exceeded every expectation. Our guide found a leopard in a tree, a lion feasting on a buffalo, baby hyenas at a den. There are holidays, and then there are experiences that stay with you forever."

"Camp Khwai is nothing short of extraordinary — wild beauty, warm hospitality and luxury in perfect harmony. The staff remembered our names, our preferences, and added personalised touches. If you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, this is it."

★★★★★

"Do not let the ride into camp fool you — it is a hidden gem. Upon arrival Violet greeted us with drinks, wet towels and a welcome song. The camp faces the river and at any moment animals are travelling through. The perfect end to our safari week in Africa."

Florence M.

★★★★★

"The highlight was the people — staff, guides and management who truly make your stay unique. The landscape is fantastic, facilities very well equipped, and access to Moremi means incredible wildlife at every turn. Very much recommended!"
