Moremi Game Reserve
Why holiday in the Moremi Game Reserve?
The Moremi Game Reserve sits at the heart of the Okavango Delta and is renowned as being one of Southern Africa’s premier wildlife areas. During the dry season months of May to August, the seasonal floods arrive, creating spectacular scenes as the water channels cut through the savanna landscapes and attracting a vast variety of migratory birds and wildlife in their wake. Chief’s Island, located within the reserve, is one of the most wildlife rich areas of the Delta, a haven for large mammals including Africa’s Big 5 (lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino), wild dogs and hippos. The birdlife is prolific too, with frequent sightings of the majestic Fish Eagle and Malachite Kingfisher.
The Moremi’s remoteness is part of its unique appeal. There are limited lodges and camps here so the wildlife encounters are often more intimate and uncrowded. Safari activities take place on land and water, with a mix of game drives, mokoro and motorboat explorations.
