Little Kwara Camp is situated in a tree’d
island on the edge of the permanent
waters of the world renowned Okavango Delta in Botswana. The
concession
shares a common boundary with Moremi Game Reserve.
This
brand new camp is an intimate four-tent camp with a fifth pilot
or guide
accommodation and is consistent with the Kwando Safaris promise:
-
Intimate Camps, in Private Areas, with Personal Service - Vintage
Africa.
Hidden amongst trees, access is by air via the Kwara airstrip.
While the
camp will share a name with the well known, 16 bedded Kwara
Camp also
operated by Kwando Safaris, Little Kwara Camp is a completely
separate
camp from Kwara. The tents are spacious, and are elevated into
the tree
canopy on wooden decks each with its own private veranda. Each
tent has it’s
own en suite facilities comprising bathroom with bath and an
inside/outside
shower. This is an ideal camp for exclusive use by small groups
and families.
Little Kwara Camp offers all the following activities -
mekoro trips year round, double deck boat cruise, island walks
as well as game
drives both off road and at night. Fishing is also offered on
request, using normal reel and rod fishing - flying fishing
enthusiasts need to bring their own equipment. Guides and trackers
will beat the same high standard as is
normal in all Kwando Safaris Botswana camps.To put the concession
area
into context - 175 000 ha (or 1750 square kilometers ) is almost
half a million
acres !
The
ability to operate off road and at night is critical in order
to see the up to
30% of interesting mammal species that are mainly active at
night. These include leopard, lion, wild dog, hyena and smaller
predators. The presence of permanent water at Little Kwara ensures
excellent year-round game viewing. The permanent water also
ensures that mekoro trips (dugout canoes) can take
place in shallow water throughout the year. Little Kwara is
one of a handful of camps able to make this claim of being a
wet and dry camp all year around.
The
spectacular scenery with scattered herds of plains game and
the ever-attendant predators helps to enhance your safari. Due
to the labyrinth of waterways, islands, seasonal flood plains
and bush, Little Kwara is always
interesting and varied. Taking a morning mekoro trip, moving
silently through the flood plains is a memorable experience
and the highlight for many. The trip is
broken by an island visit where guests rest in the shade of
the large trees while surveying the surrounding delta waters
and lagoons. After the refreshment break our trained and armed
guides take you on a guided walk on the island before your relaxing
return to camp by mekoro.
Little
Kwara complements the Kwando concession experience by offering
a
spectacularly different setting, scenery and activities from
those offered in the Kwando concession. The circuit offered
by Kwando Safaris gives you the best of Botswana – when
combined with Songwe Village on the Zambian side of Victoria
Falls the experience becomes complete.
Kwando Safaris offers it all - Africa’s big game, the
Okavango Delta, authentic African culture and the Victoria Falls.
The Okavango Delta is a 1.6 million ha wilderness of water,
reed, tress and flood plains in the middle of the Kalahari sands
– the largest block of sand on earth. The Delta is world
renowned for its biodiversity and contrasts – a must see
on any African safari.
