The Kwara Story
If you like your safaris immersive, exclusive, and diverse, then this is the place for you.
Kwara is all about variety — game drives that can go into the thick of things contrasted by serene mokoro trips and motorboat cruises along papyrus-lined channels in the Okavango Delta. Night drives? Absolutely. Because why stop when the stars come out? The predators don’t.
Kwara Camp is one of the oldest – and most beloved – camps in the Delta. It became famous in guiding and hunting circles for its incredible game density and developed a cult following among safari-goers in the know with a preference for an authentic safari experience.
When a camp is designed well, you notice immediately. But when a camp is designed exceptionally, it blends into its surrounds seamlessly, invisibly enhancing your experience. The latest iteration of the reborn Kwara ramps up the luxury with bigger tents, enhanced food and premium drinks, whilst remaining true to its origins as the real-deal safari stay.
Activities
Kwara Camp is strategically situated at the heart of the Okavango Delta, nestled on a forested island within the game-rich Kwara Private Concession.
Sharing permanent waterways with the Moremi Game Reserve, this renowned private concession is home to vast herds of plains game – and the predators that stalk them.
