Moonlight Tours Expedition – Hyena Pan Tented Camp: A Private Safari Haven on the Edge of the Okavango Delta

For travelers seeking an authentic and exclusive safari, Hyena Pan Tented Camp offers a secluded retreat in the Khwai River area, a wildlife-rich region bordering Moremi Game Reserve. This 350,000-hectare private concession provides year-round encounters with elephants, buffalo, hippos, big cats, wild dogs, and the camp’s namesake, the spotted hyena.
