Khwai Bush Camp
Resting comfortably on the banks of the Okavango’s Khwai River is the Khwai Bush Camp, a classic African bush camp boasting spectacular views of the wilderness. Surrounded by leadwood and sycamore trees, and hugged by the untamed wilderness of the unexplored Tsaro concession, Khwai Bush Camp offers its visitors a proper wild experience.
Fringing the concession is the world-renown Moremi Game Reserve, a Big 5 reserve teeming with wildlife. 4 standard thatched chalets and 2 family suites have been designed to blend in perfectly with their surrounds. Each thatched chalet has its own patio that overlooks the endless floodplains, lagoons, and forests. Khwai Bush Camp is ideal for families, and even has a children’s safari club called Ngwana Club. Mokoro excursions and game drives provide the best of land based and water safaris, allowing plenty of scope to spot predators such as cheetah, lion, leopard and African wild dogs.

Khwai Bush Camp enjoys consistent wildlife sightings throughout the year. Khwai’s qualified guides take guests out into unchartered sectors of the wilderness in search of wildlife. Visitors have the option of enjoying seasonal mokoro excursions, cultural tours to the local village, and game drives into the heart of the Moremi. Khwai Bush Camp’s guides are professional, friendly and passionate about the wild. They will introduce guests to Africa’s iconic species. Bloats of hippo can be found throughout the waterways of the Okavango Delta, while in the stretches of acacia in the Moremi there dwells lions, leopards and other predators. Inside the camp, which is open, guests can spot cheetah, hyena, giraffe, and a host of other small critters. The concession is a fantastic birding destination and offers sightings of a few crowd favourites which include the African fish eagle, African skimmer, Green-winged pytilia, and the southern carmine bee-eater.
