Meno-A-Kwena Tented Camp - Overview
Overview of Meno-A-Kwena Tented Camp Botswana, Kalahari
The eco-friendly and intimate Meno-a-Kwena safari camp is nestled at the meeting point of two stunningly diverse landscapes in Botswana – the vibrant Okavango Delta and the wild Kalahari Desert. This vibrant landscape draws in an exciting array of wildlife, showcasing a blend of savannah creatures such as cheetahs and wild dogs alongside desert specialists like meerkats and the majestic black-maned Kalahari lion.
Daily safari activities immerse you in the vibrant essence of the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, where herds of zebra gather to relish the lush grazing that follows the summer rains in December and January. The Kalahari comes alive, and when the rains are plentiful, the expansive salt pans brim with water, drawing countless birds such as flamingos, waders, and wildfowl. The dry season, spanning from May to August, offers an exhilarating experience as big game congregates near water sources. Meno-a-Kwena is perfectly situated to experience this remarkable sight from its elevated vantage point, offering breathtaking views of the Boteti River, the vital artery flowing from the Okavango Delta into the Kalahari.
