Why we like it

Exclusive location between private concession and Moremi Game Reserve
Authentic safari experiences with local guides
Perfect combination of luxury and connection to nature
Commitment to sustainable development of the local community

The strategic location on the Khwai River, which serves as a natural boundary between the Moremi Game Reserve and the concession area, makes Khwai Lediba a unique observation point for wildlife. Here, guests can witness hippos, elephants, and even lions crossing the river up close – a fascinating spectacle that captivates even experienced safari enthusiasts.

The lodge tastefully combines traditional African elements with modern comfort, creating an atmosphere that is both authentic and luxurious. The engagement with the local community through the ABC Foundation adds a meaningful dimension to the stay, allowing guests to gain deeper insights into the lives of the indigenous population.

Khwai Lediba is an extraordinary Signature Experience in the northeastern Okavango Delta. The lodge is nestled within the private Khwai Community Concession, directly bordering the renowned Moremi Game Reserve – the oldest protected section of the Okavango Delta. Unlike a National Park, the Moremi Game Reserve was established by the BaTwana tribal authorities, making it the first wildlife sanctuary created by an African tribe on their ancestral lands. It is considered one of Africa’s most pristine reserves with exceptional wildlife abundance. At Khwai Lediba, guests experience a timeless safari of the highest quality, surrounded by majestic landscapes and fascinating wildlife.

The lodge’s design elegantly reflects the lush greens and rich golds of the surrounding landscape, blending harmoniously with nature. The design combines comfort with African authenticity, providing a peaceful retreat after the day’s safari adventures. Guests can refresh themselves in the swimming pool or relax on the spacious deck with sun loungers while taking in the unique impressions of the Botswanan wilderness. The cozy lounge and reading area invite lingering, while the boutique shop offers local crafts and special gifts. The day concludes around the communal campfire, where guests can enjoy the warmth of the flames under the starlit sky.
