Cuisine

In the heart of Moremi Game Reserve, visitors can expect a fusion of traditional Botswana dishes and international cuisines. Camps and lodges often serve up hearty meals featuring local ingredients like the staple “sadza” or “pap” (maize porridge), complemented by succulent game meat such as kudu, impala, or warthog.

Freshwater fish like tilapia and catfish from the delta are also a delicacy. Meals are often accompanied by native vegetables like morogo (wild spinach) and beans. For the adventurous palate, local delicacies like mopane worms might be on offer.

While the setting is wild and remote, many establishments strive to offer gourmet experiences, pairing sumptuous meals with South African wines, finishing with delectable desserts inspired by both African and European traditions.

Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit Moremi Game Reserve is during the dry season, which runs from July to October. During these months, wildlife congregates around water sources, making animal spotting significantly easier and more frequent.

The vegetation thins out, further enhancing visibility for game drives. While the temperatures are cooler and more comfortable during the early dry season, they can rise substantially by October. This period also sees fewer mosquitoes, reducing the risk of malaria. Another advantage is the minimal rainfall, ensuring that most roads and tracks remain accessible.

However, this is also the peak tourist season, so early bookings are advised to secure accommodation and tours. For those seeking a balance between wildlife viewing and fewer crowds, the shoulder months of May and June are also worth considering.

Attractions

#1Diverse Ecosystems

Moremi Game Reserve offers one of Africa’s most unique and diverse ecosystems. Located at the convergence of the dry Kalahari sands and the water-rich Okavango Delta, Moremi boasts a unique blend of habitats. These range from wetlands, lagoons, and floodplains to thickets, woodlands, and grasslands. This remarkable diversity ensures that visitors witness a broad spectrum of African wildlife and scenery, making every game drive or boat safari an ever-changing experience.

#2Spectacular Birdwatching

With over 500 bird species recorded, Moremi is a birdwatcher’s paradise. Whether you’re an avid birder or a casual enthusiast, the array of feathered creatures is astounding. From the large and majestic African Fish Eagle and Pel’s Fishing Owl to the vibrant and elusive Lilac-breasted Roller and Carmine Bee-eater, the birdlife is varied and abundant. During the wet season, migratory birds from the northern hemisphere join the resident species, further enriching the birdwatching experience.

#3Predator Capital

Moremi boasts an impressive density of large predators. Lions, leopards, cheetahs, and the often elusive African wild dogs are found here. The reserve offers one of the best chances in Africa to witness the mesmerising dynamics of predator and prey, delivering intense and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

#4Conservation Success

Established by the local BaTawana people, Moremi was the first African reserve set up by indigenous communities. This proactive step in the 1960s ensured the protection of a significant section of the Okavango Delta. Visitors contribute directly to this ongoing success story, where conservation meets community.

#5Year-Round Wildlife Viewing

Unlike some destinations which have distinct peak seasons, Moremi offers incredible wildlife sightings throughout the year. Whether in the wet season with its lush landscapes and bird migrations or the dry season’s congregation of animals around water sources, there’s never a bad time to explore.

#6Mokoro Safaris

Drifting through the Delta in a mokoro (a traditional dugout canoe) is a quintessential Moremi experience. It offers an intimate and serene perspective of the wetlands, getting up close with aquatic wildlife and birds.

#7Camping Under the Stars

For those seeking a raw, unfiltered connection with nature, Moremi’s campsites provide a direct link. Falling asleep to the sounds of the African bush and waking up to a sunrise over the delta is an experience that resonates deeply and lingers long after the trip ends.

#8Cultural Connections

Engage with the BaTawana community, the stewards of Moremi. This interaction provides insights into the traditions, folklore, and conservation ethos of the local people, adding depth to the wildlife experience.

#9Photographic Expeditions

The pristine landscapes, dramatic skies, and abundance of wildlife make Moremi a photographer’s dream. Whether capturing a leopard’s gaze, a bird in flight, or the play of light on water, the reserve is a canvas of endless possibilities.

#10Seclusion and Intimacy

Despite its popularity, Moremi still offers areas of seclusion. Away from the crowds of some other African destinations, here one can find quiet corners, providing personal and intimate wildlife encounters.
