Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi Game Reserve is situated in the central and eastern areas of Okavango Delta. It includes the Moremi tongue and Chief’s island, boasting one of the continent’s wealthiest and most diverse ecosystems. This makes for a spectacular game viewing and birdwatching including all significant, naturally occurring herbivores and carnivore species in the region of over 400 species of birds and many migratory and endangered species. The landscape includes water ways, lagoons, pools, pans, grassland sand forests. This terrain makes driving in Moremi’s tracks and trails delightful and exceptionally inspiring.

Covering one third of Okavango Delta, it is undoubtedly one of the top wildlife destinations in Africa. It if nestled within wildlife management areas, allowing free movement of game across its fenceless boarders. One gets the feeling that even thought you are surrounded by dangerous animals, you are in one of the safest corners of the mad word we live in.

In 2008, Moremi Game Reserve was voted “Best Game Reserve in Africa” by the prestigious African Travel and Tourism Association of Sough Africa’s premier tourism fair, Indaba.

It is the first reserve in Africa to be established by local residents concerned about the rapid depletion of wildlife in their ancestral lands due to uncontrolled hunting and cattle encroachment. The people of Ngamiland under the leadership of the deceased chief moremi III’s wife, Mrs moremi, took the bold initiative to proclaim Moremi a Game Reserve in 1963. It is the only officially protected area of the Okavango Delta. As such it holds tremendous scientific, environmental and conservational importance.
