Wilderness Qorokwe

Okavango Delta, Botswana

About Wilderness Qorokwe

Wilderness Qorokwe is a sophisticated sanctuary situated within a private 26,180-hectare concession in the southeastern reaches of the Okavango Delta. Bordering the world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve, the camp is strategically positioned between the Santantadibe and Gomoti channels, offering a diverse landscape of acacia woodlands, seasonal floodplains, and permanent water channels. The name 'Qorokwe' translates to 'the place where the buffalo broke through the bush into the water,' a nod to the massive herds that frequent the area alongside a high density of predators. The camp’s architecture is a masterclass in contemporary eco-luxury, featuring nine elegant tented suites elevated on wooden platforms to maximize views of the surrounding lagoon. Each suite is designed with earthy tones and organic textures, blending seamlessly into the wild environment while offering modern comforts like indoor/outdoor showers. The main area serves as a social hub with a library, a stylish bar, and an infinity pool that overlooks the water, providing a front-row seat to the Delta’s daily wildlife spectacles.

Why we like it

We love Qorokwe for its exceptional predator density and its commitment to sustainability as a 100% solar-powered camp. The exclusive access to a private concession bordering Moremi ensures high-quality, private sightings of rare species like wild dogs and reintroduced white rhino.
