"Kwara Camp review"
The camp the staff and the food were excellent. We were totally spoilt and made to feel individual and special. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff.
The game drives were exceptional. Our Guide Rodgers and Tracker Freeman took time to explain the lives of the wildlife along with the vegetation. They were very happy to answer any question however basic they were." See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana; 2n in South Africa

"Kwara Camp review"
Kwara camp does share the concession with Splash, but we rarely saw many vehicles.
The rooms are amazing and you could just safari from sitting in the camp; Elephants, Baboons, Hippo, Red Lechwe, Kudu, Monkey, etc, etc.
Be prepared for rough and bumpy roads and in return we got a ridiculous amount of wildlife. e.g one evening we left 2 lions to go back to see 3 lions we saw earlier and then got a call and went to see a Leopard!. Another time we were surrounded by circa 1000 Buffalo.
Our Guide Diesel and Tracker KT did an amazing job, tracked/spotted Cheater, Leopard, Lions, birds, owls that we could only see with Bino's once pointed out. They were also very good at explaining how they tracked, what to look for and we honest when it turned out to be a log - gave us confidence to make mistakes.
A plus here is that only 4 in a vehicle, so easier to please everyone.
We went end of June, Whilst we were their the floods started to arrive. We noticed the change in the landscape, but also the number of Mosquitos started to increase.
Overall an amazing place, with a variety of activities, with one amazing animal encounter after another." See all these reviews: 8n in Botswana; 4n in Namibia

"Great for in-camp viewings"
We did not see any predators in the Kwara section of the concession. Every sighting was found/tracked and called in by guides from Splash.
There are Wild Dogs around 4Rivers and Splash, but NOT Kwara!
The vehicle we were assigned had no 'floorboard' on the 2nd row of seats, so for someone with short legs like me, there was a lot of (unnecessary) bouncing around. I did not know there were vehicles with such a floorboard until the ride out to our helicopter or I would have asked for another vehicle. There also were issues with both the truck (overheating) and the boat (fuel pump), technical according to our guide, but maybe due to lack of driving skills on their part.
The rooms were very comfortable and spacious. Even hairdryers were provided on request.
There is a charging station in the rooms as well as wi-fi that worked without a glitch." See all these reviews: 10n in Botswana

"Kwara Camp review"
I think what stood out for me here (our last camp), was that it was noticeable that there were very few vehicles in the area. We had a good welcome and the staff were so engaged over the 2 nights, great food, great service and staff who were prepared to go the extra mile. Our guide, Chimmie (apologies if spelling is wrong) and his tracker (sorry cannot recall his name), were brilliant. Knowledgeable, friendly and focused. Chimmie heard there was a pack of Wild Dogs, but they were about a 1 hour drive...he gave us the option of if we wanted to drive there or not (we did). It was great to be given the option and told how long it might take. Chimmie also gave us an impromptu lesson on the stars on the drive back one evening.
We took the opportunity to do a Mokoro trip, which was great, getting close, but not too close, to some hippos, and spotting a tiny frog...spotted by the tracker, I do not know how! Also loved the boat trip...wonderful to get a real feeling of the delta, and the various riverways, seeing great birdlife. All with the added bonus of a stop for some light bites, a St Louis beer, and some Okavango Gin!
I would say probably less animal sightings (still plenty) than other camps we were in, but those sightings never has more than 2 other vehicles. I would actually put this as a positive of this camp, dependent on what you are looking for, or have maybe seen in other locations already.
Very comfortable, great food, and a great team. Thank you." See all these reviews: 7n in Botswana

"Kwara Camp review"
The staff is very friendly and the camp is beautifully located close to the water. You can do all kind of activities (game drives, boat, mokoro, walking safaris) all year round. We were extremely lucky to see two cheetahs, one leopard, a rare sitatunga and a pack of 20 wild dogs all in just four days. Splendid!
Our guide Lukas and his spotter Tyro were not only very friendly, but also extremely konwledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile for us.
Thank you very much for an unforgettable stay!" See all these reviews: 4n in Botswana; 2n in Zimbabwe

Being the flagship, the standards are very high.
Kwando appear to have taken on board feed back and the guides in Splash and Kwara are now co-operating better so there is less overlap than I have encountered previously.
Managers Charles and Lizzy are both a delight, and I am looking forward to retuning next year." See all these reviews: 11n in Botswana
