Audi Camp is on the Thamalakane about 12 km from Maun on the Shorobe road, and it is the campsite most self-drivers and overlanders in Botswana have heard of. It has run since long before Maun had much else, and it still does the two things that matter: a proper camping ground, and mobile safaris run by the same people.

Camping and rooms

A large camping area with and without power points, hot-water ablutions and laundry. Four en-suite luxury tents on raised decking, ten mini-Meru tents, eight dome tents, and a four-bedroom self-catering house sleeping ten.

Facilities at Audi Camp

A swimming pool, and a bar and restaurant open from 07:00 to 22:00 daily. Mobile safaris to Moremi, the Central Kalahari and the Makgadikgadi are run in-house, and mokoro trips with local polers are booked on site.

Who it suits

Self-drivers, overlanders, and travellers who want a mobile safari booked with the people who will actually run it.

Location and access

Tar out of Maun on the Shorobe road then a short signposted access track, about 9 km from Maun International Airport. A standard vehicle gets you in; no 4×4 required.

How we checked this listing

Tent counts, facilities and opening hours come from Audi Camp Safaris’ own website and the Botswana Tourism Organisation register. We have not stayed here.

Booking here means booking direct

Audi Camp takes reservations by telephone and email rather than through an online booking engine, and we could not confirm a booking link that reliably lands on this property rather than a general Maun search. So we have not published one. The camp’s own contact details are on its website, linked below, and that is the route we would use.

This is common in Botswana and it is not a warning sign. A great many genuinely good properties here — community camps, owner-run camps, the older established names — simply never built an online engine.

The graduated camping ladder

What makes Audi Camp useful is that it covers the whole range in one place. If you are carrying a rooftop tent you take a powered site. If you have flown in with nothing you take a dome tent. If you want a bed and a bathroom you take a Meru tent on a deck. If there are ten of you, you take the house.

That flexibility is exactly what a Maun staging night needs, because parties arriving here are rarely equipped the same way. It is also why the camp is often the meeting point for a mobile safari departing the next morning — our 4×4 and vehicle requirements guide covers what you should have with you before that departure.

Who Audi Camp suits

  • Self-drivers and overlanders, for whom this is a standard and well-understood Botswana stop.
  • Travellers booking a mobile safari, since the operator and the campsite are the same business.
  • Groups, for the self-catering house and the range of tent options on one site.

It suits you less if you want a quiet lodge, a spa or a room with air conditioning as standard.

Book or compare

We have not been able to confirm a booking route for Audi Camp specifically. Rather than send you to a property that is not this one, the availability button compares stays across Maun. It does not claim to open this property.

We publish no rate here. Prices move with season, occupancy and cancellation terms, and a figure copied once is a figure that goes stale.

Botswana Travel Guide may earn a commission when you book through selected links, at no additional cost to you. It does not change what we list or what we say about it.

What we publish, and what we do not

We publish no rates, no availability, no star ratings and no review scores of our own. We have not published a booking link for this property because we could not confirm one that lands on the camp itself.

If anything here is out of date, or if a direct booking route becomes available, tell us through our contact page.
