In the community-run Khwai Concession on the eastern edge of the Okavango Delta, Khwai Leadwood – part of African Bush Camps – is an intimate camp of just 5 luxury tented suites, 1 honeymoon suite, and 1 family suite. Shaded by a canopy of trees, the Khwai River is all that separates the camp from the Moremi Game Reserve, acting as a natural boundary between the renowned reserve and exclusive concession.
The main lodge blends effortlessly into its riverbank setting: a lounge of deep sofas and woven textures opens onto a spacious deck, where breakfast might be accompanied by the sight of elephants crossing the Khwai River into the reserve.
Raised wooden walkways connect the central area to each tented suite, ensuring privacy while keeping you close to the sights and sounds of the bush. From your tent’s private deck, views spill out over the water, with hippos wallowing below and fish eagles calling overhead. The design is contemporary yet warm – solar-powered canvas-and-timber structures feature thoughtful touches that reflect local craft, creating a sense of being woven gently into the landscape.
During the day, guests can enjoy twice-daily game drives as well as guided walking safaris to explore the game-rich concession. Water levels permitting, mokoro safaris aboard a dugout canoe offer a different perspective. Come evening, tell your fellow travellers about the day’s adventures around the boma, before dinner under a starlit sky.
Morning and afternoon game drives, night drives, guided walking safaris and seasonal mokoro excursions (for guests aged 16 and over) open windows into the Okavango’s wildlife canvas – lions, cheetah, wild dogs, elephants, buffalo and prolific birdlife move freely across the river into Moremi. Cultural visits offer connection to the local Khwai community, while optional scenic helicopter flights add a lofty perspective. Keeping young explorers busy and entertained, the Ngwana Club has exciting activities for children of all ages.
