Explore the Khwai community concession

A self-drive safari in the Khwai region offers something increasingly rare: complete freedom. With your own vehicle, you set the pace for the day. Spend an hour watching a family of elephants crossing the road, linger at a waterhole, or simply pull over and enjoy the silence of the Khwai wilderness. There is no schedule, no rush and no one deciding when it’s time to move on. The Khwai area is wonderfully diverse, with a mix of floodplains, open grasslands, riverine forests and mopane woodlands creating an ever-changing scenery. Around every corner, a new surprise may be waiting. One moment you’re admiring a herd of red lechwe grazing in the wetlands, the next you’re sharing the road with a pride of lions. Pack a picnic, bring plenty of water and allow yourself the luxury of going nowhere!
