Sharing precious permanent waterways with Moremi Game Reserve, the elegant Kwara Camp overlooks a gorgeous lagoon in the game rich Kwara Private Concession and is well-known for consistent predator sightings.
Lion, cheetah, and leopard are often sighted, herds of elephants frequent the area, as well as giraffes, zebra, lechwe, impala and hippos. Explore this wealth of wildlife from the adult only Kwara Camp with nine bright and spacious suites. Each tent has a spacious deck, an en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers and a beautiful bath – all of which have views across the floodplains.
Kwara offers five activities all year, with no seasonal restrictions: walking safaris, offroad game drives morning, afternoon and night, motorboat and mokoro trips, plus seasonal fishing. The double-decker boat experience grants views across papyrus-lined channels to scan for birds and the shy sitatunga. The Godikwe Lagoon is a favourite seasonal highlight, which abounds with life during the heronry breeding season.
The communal area at the center of the camp consists of the dining area, lounge, and safari shop, with two swimming pool areas (with loungers and a small bar) at either end of the camp.

Lagoon Camp sits gracefully on the shaded banks of the Kwando River, nestled among towering ebony and marula trees. This densely forested site hosts a diverse range of birds and mammals. Such breathtaking scenery and close proximity to wildlife create a serene camp atmosphere. With a well-earned reputation for big game, this area is renowned for its seasonal large herds of elephants and buffalo. In the winter, herds of up to a thousand are commonplace, and the riverbank is a popular spot for large numbers of elephants to gather in full view of the main camp deck.
This remarkable concentration of game attracts the attention of large predators, such as the Lagoon African wild dog pack that frequently dens close to camp. The camp boasts nine spacious tents with private decks, a living area, and a river-facing bathroom. All tents have indoor and outdoor showers; one includes an additional twin room for family use.
The main thatched areas of the camp feature a bar and lounge, dining area, safari shop, and a second-level library overlooking the Kwando River. Guests can swim in the river-facing swimming pool, relax on the outdoor deck swing, or indulge in an afternoon boat cruise, and seasonal fishing is also available.
