Day-by-day Description
Day 1Fly out to Khwai Concession
Activities Included
Camping Game drive CultureToday you arrive in Maun. Here, a small aircraft awaits you for a short transfer into the Okavango Delta. Upon landing, your guide, an experienced ranger from the local community, greets you and takes you to the camp. The Khwai Concession is known for its predators, such as its packs of wild dogs, lions, hyenas and leopards. The unique Okavango river systems also makes for good sighting of aquatic birds, hippos and crocodiles. Situated in this wildlife haven is Khwai Tented Camp. The community-run camp laps up its beautiful lagoon front setting. Perched on a raised deck, with sweeping lagoon views connecting to the Khwai River, this beautiful camp seamlessly blends into the surrounding woodland area. Simple yet elegant, Khwai Tented Camp strikes the perfect balance between homely touches whilst not detracting from the wild environment. Experience the animals and surroundings of Khwai on an afternoon game drive. Come back, rest and get ready for a sumptuous starlight dinner. The camp consists of six en suite tents all dotted along the lagoon for the utmost privacy. There are no permanent structures; everything can be removed to leave the wilderness exactly as we found it, minimizing our impact on the environment. As Khwai is a community-run concession, all its proceeds from tourism go directly to the local people and projects through the Khwai Community Trust.
