Khwai Conservancy

Khwai Conservancy sits on the eastern edge of the Okavango Delta, where the Khwai River draws elephant, buffalo and predators down to its banks in large numbers. Unlike the neighbouring national parks, this community-run concession allows off-road driving and night drives, opening up sightings that stricter parks cannot offer. The Khwai community itself manages the land, and lodges here work closely with them, so a stay supports the conservancy directly. It is often paired with Moremi or the Delta for a rounded look at northern Botswana.
