Overview
About 4 Rivers
4 Rivers sits beside the Tsum Tsum waterway in the western part of the Kwara Private Concession, in Botswana’s northern Okavango Delta. Eight tented suites and one family suite have private viewing decks, with open-sided communal spaces and a pool overlooking the water. Guide-and-tracker teams lead game drives and night drives, while walking safaris explore Maboa Island and seasonal mokoro excursions follow the channels. Children aged six and over are welcome; families with children aged six to eleven need private activities. The airstrip is approximately a 20-minute drive from camp.
“A good choice for returning safari travellers who want a small waterfront camp, off-road tracking and time to explore the Delta on foot.”
