Sango Safari Camp is a rustic bush camp set on the banks of the Khwai River just outside Khwai Village.

This simple camp takes full advantage of this excellent area by proving good accommodation levels with excellent activities in this very good game rich concession, all at an affordable price.

Its the simplicity and unpretentious attitude at this camp that we love. The owners are also well known for running Mobile Camping Safaris throughout Botswana and they are very experienced in providing a top notch service at a good price. Admittedly, this is not an opulent camp, but its not meant to be, its more about stories around the campfire and good accommodation coupled with a GREAT wildlife area. Sango is one of our favourite camps.

Wildlife

The wildlife viewing is generated around similar species to that of the general Oakavango Delta. In and around Khwai you can see general plains game such as elephant, impala, zebra and wildebeest sable antelope with great concentrations of lion, leopard and hyena. In recent seasons there have also been good numbers of wild dogs and some occasional cheetah.

The more aquatic animals like hippo, waterbuck and red lechwe are generally always seen depending on the area visited.

Birdlife is also strong and concentrates on the main river area where lovely flocks of pygmy goose and white-faced ducks mingle with spur-winged goose, comb ducks and African Jacanas.

Overview

Sango Safari Camp is nestled in the shade of the trees overlooking the Khwai River.

Situated on the outskirts of the traditional village of Khwai and on the border of Moremi Game Reserve, the camp offers guests the perfect base from which to explore the wildlife and culture of this unique habitat.

The lodge itself sits on the banks of the Khwai River in the concession. It is a simple rustic affair with a main lounge and dining tented area with an outside fire-pit. this whole area is right on the river with good and uninterrupted views

The lounge aea has a stand up bar at the back for your drinks service and the relaxation area is a combination of large cloth armchairs and locally made metal framed day-beds. Added to this is an array of simple African curio style furniture including wooden drink stands and coffee table.

To the other side of the tented main area is a big dining space with a large dining table with director style safari chairs.

As you walk out of the lounge area to the left and downstream past all the accommodation is a swimming pool and an excellent viewing platform or hide, which is raised quite high and affords you one of the best views of any lodge in the area, covering quite a large expanse of the Khwai River.
