The location between Moremi Game Reserve and the Okavango Delta creates a natural wildlife corridor that supports remarkable year-round game viewing.

Guided Walking Safaris
Guided walks allow guests to experience the wilderness on foot while learning about tracks, plants, insects, and animal behaviour. Experienced guides provide insight into the ecological systems that shape the Khwai ecosystem.

Furthermore, walking safaris reveal many of the smaller details often missed during traditional game drives.
