A Luxury Safari Camp in the Linyanti Wildlife Reserve
Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, Botswana
Wilderness King’s Pool is one of Botswana’s most iconic safari camps, set within the vast 311,000-acre Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, bordering Chobe National Park. This remote, lightly visited region is renowned for its high wildlife concentrations and wonderfully uncrowded safari experience, making it a favourite for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari travellers.
The thatch and canvas camp overlooks the King’s Pool lagoon and the Linyanti River system, a magnet for wildlife throughout the year. Waterways, floodplains and woodlands combine to create a constantly shifting landscape, best explored on expertly guided game drives, walks and boat-based activities.
Accommodation is intimate and refined, with just seven spacious suites and one dedicated family suite. Each room is elegantly furnished in classic safari style, with soft blue accents reflecting the surrounding waterways. Expansive decks connect the suites to nature, while the central guest areas include a pool, lounge, library, dining and bar spaces, all designed for relaxed, unhurried safari living.

Why We Love Wilderness King’s Pool
Wildlife naturally funnels toward the lagoon and river system, creating outstanding viewing opportunities throughout the day. The camp’s eye-level photographic hide is a standout feature, allowing guests to quietly observe animals at close range without disturbance. Combined with Wilderness’ guiding standards and the reserve’s low vehicle density, sightings here feel calm, immersive and deeply respectful.
