Prince Harry took, in his own words, a 'huge leap' for his third date with Meghan Markle, jetting her to the gorgeous Meno a Kwena campin the wilds of Botswana.

The camp is part of Natural Selection, and while not as luxurious as some of the better-known camps in the country, it is stylish andcomfortable.

Prince Harry has been to the camp several times. Describing their adventure, he said they stayed in a tent in 'the middle of nowhere'.

The 'tents' are actually chic, safari-style canvas suites with epic views of the Boteti River, which is busy with zebra, wildebeest and herdsof elephant.

The location is extraordinary, with a swimming pool located right on the cliff edge. Guests can hang out there, sipping wine and watchingthe game come and go below.

The area is famous for the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra from April to October, right below the camp.

In fact, you can even game-watch from your own outdoor shower.

Meno a Kwena offers year-round game drives in the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, bush picnics, boat trips and cultural walks withlocal San Bushmen.

Prince Harry apparently loves the laidback, unassuming feel of the place, where all meals are cooked over a fire.

But the highlight for the couple was sleeping out on the Pans. In Prince Harry's words: 'We camped out with each other under the stars,sharing a tent and all that stuff. It was fantastic.'
