About Kwara Camp

  • Close Panel 

Kwara Camp is situated on the edge of the permanent waters in a remote area on the northern part of the Okavango Delta in Botswana and borders the Moremi Game Reserve. It is located amongst tall ebony trees in 1,700 square kilometres of private unfenced wilderness.

The camp consists of 8 luxury tents accommodating 16 guests. The tents are raised on teak decks to afford views over the surrounding plains and lagoon with the resident hippos. The tents all have en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water and flush toilets and ouside showers. There is one honeymoon tent, which has a bath as well as the outdoor shower. The large ebony and mangosteen trees provide shade, which keeps the camp cool. There is also a large bird population in the camp. Kwara Camp has a swimming pool where guests can cool off.

Kwara Camp offers power boating, mokoro (dug out canoe) trips, guided walks and game drives all year round. As Kwara is in a large private concession the game drives can also operate off road and at night, which allows guests to see a greater range of wildlife. Amongst animals frequenting the area are hippos, crocodiles, elephants, buffalos, zebras, wild dogs, lions, leopards and cheetahs. The area is also famous for its diverse bird life.

Pricing guidelines for Botswana

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £700 to £1000 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Botswana combines well with Zambia and South Africa.

 

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:
£

  £50 to £150

Tribes Advisor

After a long journey from the UK I was so glad to arrive at Kwara! A lovely rustic camp set in a private area of the delta, with very few other tourists around making this a wonderful remote safari destination. The guiding here was excellent and we had both a guide and a spotter. They showed us plants, trees, spore and tracks and weren't just focused on the big game (of which we also saw plently!), so it was a refreshing and rounded safari experience. The vehicles don't have sunshades which is both good and bad at the same time. You can get better photos and see up into the trees to whatever may be hiding in the branches as the sunshade isn't in the way, but at the same time you will also need a hat and lots of sunscreen as it gets hot pretty quickly!
The rooms are tented and very comfortable which is all you need! There is even a small pool to cool off in between game activities.
