Overview of Khwai Lediba

Venture into the oldest protected section of the Okavango Delta, Moremi Game Reserve, for an unforgettable luxury tented safari camp experience. Khwai Lediba is found on the beautiful banks of the Khwai River within the Khwai Concession of Botswana.

One of the standout features of this eco-friendly lodge is its commitment to solar power.  It harnesses the abundant African sunshine to power its facilities. Solar panels dot the landscape, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint.

This camp is an ideal year-round game viewing destination. Spend your days discovering the local wildlife, including safari big hitters, the Big 5, as well as seemingly endless herds of elephants – a sight to behold. Thrice daily game drives, scintillating walking safaris with local guides, and a constant stream of birds await as well as mokoro safari excursions – water levels permitting.

Khwai Lediba also stands as a beacon of responsible tourism through its community projects. The lodge maintains a strong partnership with the nearby Khwai Village, actively engaging in projects that benefit the local community. You will have the opportunity to interact with residents, learn about their culture, and support initiatives like education and healthcare. The lodge’s commitment to community-based tourism is not only enriching for visitors but also ensures that the benefits of tourism flow directly into the hands of the people who call this remarkable wilderness home.

Back at camp, and the comfort of your private deck, or hammock, embrace the stillness of your surroundings, and see what wildlife you can spot – the ideal armchair safari experience.  You will always be treated to a front-row seat of the safari action, be it a tower of giraffes, herds of buck, or even lion.

    Standard Tent

    Make the most of your immersion in the magnificent Khwai Concession and admire the vast waterways of the Okavango Delta from the comfort of your private deck. A sunken lounge shaded by sycamore and leadwood trees provides the perfect place to soak in your surroundings. Alternatively, grab the book you keep meaning to read and settle into the hammock.

    Each eco-friendly tent features modern furnishings and amenities as well as an en-suite bathroom. An indoor and outdoor shower are also found in each luxury accommodation, including the family orientated.

    General Facilities

    Khwai Lediba is an eco-friendly, purpose-led property; as such, it primarily makes use of solar power and keeps a backup generator on hand. Each tent contains in-room charging facilities as well as fans for warmer evenings. Between game drives, the on-site pool offers a welcome respite during the summer months – bearing in mind, it doesn’t need to be summer to be hot in the bush!

    The property is accessible by helicopter transfer from Linyanti and is located a 45 minute ‘game drive’ from Khwai Airstrip for fixed wing flights. Morning, afternoon, and night game drives offer the opportunity to discover the diverse wildlife population of Moremi Game Reserve – including the Big 5, elephants, giraffes, and more.

      We had a wonderful stay at Khwai Tented Camp. We saw so many animals in a short time and the accommodation was superb. Each safari drive was great and the kids had a lot of fun!
