The Place Where Buffalo Broke Through the Bush into the Water

Wilderness Safaris is set to open the exclusive Qorokwe Concession, encompassing over 26 180 hectares (64 692 acres) in a high-density game area of the south-eastern Okavango, bordering the renowned Moremi Game Reserve, which has been unutilised for more than four years. Exploring Qorokwe reveals a world of diverse Delta habitats supporting a wealth of wildlife, earning the area’s well-deserved reputation as a top Botswana safari destination.
