Koro River Camp

The team at Koro are simply incredible. The staff make you feel at home the moment you arrive, the food is outstanding. From bush breakfasts under ancient Mashatu trees to riverbed dinners under the stars, every meal is an experience in itself, and every detail is thoughtfully planned to create a world-class experience. Nestled on the Limpopo River, it offers stunning views, incredible wildlife, and a true sense of wilderness. The camp is beautifully designed and blends luxury with authenticity — you feel close to nature without giving up comfort. What makes Koro River Camp unique are the special touches: walking safaris, sleeping in a hide, climbing koppies for sunset, and intimate dinners in the wine cellar. The wildlife sightings are spectacular, but it’s also the little moments — campfire evenings, birdsong at dawn, and the silence of the bush — that stay with you. Koro River Camp is not just a safari destination, it’s a life-changing experience. I cannot wait to return.

Koro River Lodge, located in the Central Tuli Block of Botswana, offered us a wild, peaceful stay surrounded by the beauty of the bush. Our guides, Casablanca and Mandla, had unbelievable spotting skills and a deep knowledge of the land. The work the lodge supports — wildlife corridors, research, sustainability, and tree-planting — made this stay especially meaningful for our family. We loved the quiet beauty of the lodge along the river, the opportunity to offset our carbon footprint by planting trees (including a baobab, which was a highlight!), and the genuine warmth of the team. Koro is remote, and that’s part of its charm — it’s untouched, intentional, and full of purpose. For travelers who value conservation, authenticity, and depth over luxury for luxury’s sake, Koro River Lodge is a truly special place.

Nothing we can write will do justice to this incredible place. Stayed here for five nights, nowhere near long enough. The tent was private, clean, well equipped and had fabulous outdoor space with amazing views. The food was plentiful and delicious, the communal spaces kept immaculate by hard working staff. The highlight was obviously the game drives, especially the morning one, starting with coffee and a muffin before setting off, coffee and biscuit half way through and then back to camp for "breakfast number three!" Oh, and did I mention that we saw some wildlife as well? Saw a leopard every day (so rare on other safaris) lots of elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest etc etc and so many birds of different species that I lost count. This is truly a paradise for bird watchers. And finally, the staff. Managers Alida and Bets going above and beyond for us, our guides, West and Solomon, spotting wildlife that we only dreamed of seeing, and the cheerful, friendly staff in camp for the giggles and fun. The foundation is doing incredible work for the wildlife, local people and the environment, and deserve every success. Visit Koro. You won't regret it.

The best place on earth!! Hospitable and super friendly staff. Well organized and maintained camp. Very good, friendly and safe guides during the tours. We have seen all, lions, leopards, elephants, crocodile, hyenas and more and more. Good food and surprises. And finally, we have planted a tree.

We have visited several countries in Africa and seen a lot, but found this a truly unique place. During our trip in South-Arica we passed the border to Botswana (very easy and swift process) for a few days at this wonderful lodge set in indescribably beautiful nature. We had the chance to stay in the family tent - consisting of a tent for the parents, a tent for our children (9 and 12 years old), a tent with bathroom and in addition an outdoor shower, with a pool and terrace overlooking the beautiful river. The interior of the tents was very tasteful. We intensely enjoyed the warmth of everyone working at the lodge, the personal attention, particularly to our children, the beautiful nature and the excellent food which we enjoyed overlooking the river. The guides Casablanca and Mandla took us through the area and showed us the most beautiful places. They were very sweet and caring and came up with fun activities that they did with the children in between game drives so that we could relax further. The children experienced their stay at this lodge as one of the highlights of the trip so far. After leaving, it was hard to get used to the lodge next on the itinerary. We would love to come back again and then plan the Koro River Lodge at the end of our trip to fully relax in this beautiful setting.

I had a lovely stay at Koro River camp. The tents were so tastefully decorated and had stunning views of the Limpopo river. The beds were very comfortable. The staff were polite and friendly. Excellent service! The food was delightful. We got to see a variety of animals on the game drives. I would certainly want to stay at this place again in the future.
