Kwando River Boat Safari

Kwando River, Botswana

About this experience

The Kwando River winds through papyrus and reedbeds on Botswana’s northern border. Boat trips from Kwando camps offer opportunities to see elephants crossing, hippo, crocodile, and birds such as African skimmers and kingfishers.

It is a peaceful, low-impact way to explore a remote and wild river system.

Highlights

  • Papyrus-lined channels
  • Elephant crossings in the dry season
  • Rich birdlife
