Enjoy a classic Botswana safari at Mma Dinare Camp. Operated in collaboration with the Sankuyo Community Trust in the Dinare Private Reserve (allowing off-road and nighttime game drives), this traditional safari stay has a positive impact.
Keep your camera handy! Mma Dinare (meaning ‘Mother Buffalo’ in Setswana) is designed to embrace the natural surroundings. Thatched and open, the central area is a great place to relax and watch the wildlife drawn to the Gomoti River. There are nine canvas tents and one family tent, each with an elevated deck, en suite bathrooms and outdoor showers. The main area comprises a bar, swimming pool and safari shop. The dining and lounge area is raised on stilts and decked, with an attractive fire pit area adjoining it.
Seasonal mokoro rides thread through the Okavango Delta waters. The Sankuyo community directly benefits from every visit. Over 60 employees at the Dinare camps are from the Sankuyo village, and further proceeds support local development. Citizens of Sankuyo fund crucial projects via this trust, such as installing household water connections that minimise human contact with dangerous animals and a high-tech, eco-friendly solar system.
