Kings Pool

Kings Pool Camp overlooks a picturesque oxbow lagoon on the Linyanti River. It’s classed by its owners as a ‘premier’ camp, implying – amongst other things – relatively grand and luxurious accommodation, high levels of personal service and that the quality of its food (and the size of its price tag) will be well above average.

Our view of Kings Pool

Kings Pool is a very good camp. It’s luxurious, the food is very good and, when it’s dry, the game viewing can be superb. However, it comes at a high price and we’re not sure that it measures up against its sister camps in northern Botswana, or delivers really good value for money, particularly outside of the dry season.

That said, if you want to visit the riverine environment that’s typical of the Chobe and Linyanti riverfronts, and you want a luxurious safari camp of very high quality – then it’s certainly the best option.
