Khwai Leadwood

Khwai Concession

Wildlife Without the Crowds

Enjoy a tailor made Khwai safari, with stunning riverine forests and prolific game making for a superb holiday.

Tucked between the Moremi Game Reserve and Chobe National Park, the Khwai Concession is one of Botswana’s most rewarding private wildlife areas. Set along the Khwai River, this unfenced concession offers the same incredible game viewing as its famous neighbours, but with greater exclusivity and flexibility.

This community-run reserve is a shining example of responsible tourism, where local people manage the land and directly benefit from conservation-led travel. The result is a truly authentic safari experience, with expert local guides who know the region intimately and help bring its stories to life.

Wildlife here is prolific year-round. Elephants frequent the riverbanks, while lions, leopards and wild dogs patrol the floodplains. Night drives and walking safaris are permitted in Khwai - a rarity in Botswana - allowing for deeper immersion in the bush and a chance to see nocturnal species like civets, genets and porcupines.

Luxury tented camps line the river’s edge, offering superb comfort with a front-row seat to the action. Listen to hippos grunting as you fall asleep, and wake to the call of African fish eagles. Khwai delivers exceptional wildlife encounters with a strong conservation ethos - the best of both worlds.
