MOREMI
GAME RESERVE
Moremi Safari Camps
The Moremi Game Reserve
is located in the heart of the Okavango Delta and
is a haven for Botswana's wildlife and pristine
wilderness. The reserve was declared in 1963
and named for former Batawana chief Moremi III. The
reserve is unfenced but surrounded by a large buffer
zone of wildlife management areas and private safari
concessions. Moremi offers only a handful
of safari camps..

Mombo
Camp
Mombo
Camp is perhaps Botswana's premier safari camp
and certainly its most renowned. Mombo
has the well-deserved reputation of having the
best big game viewing in all of Botswana and
arguably in all of Africa. All the major
predators are here in abundance, including leopards,
lions, cheetahs and even wild dogs. Botswana's
recent re-introduction of the long extinct rhinoceros
took place at Mombo Camp and the re-introduction
continues very successfully today.
Mombo Camp
offers nine very spacious and luxurious tents
with incredible views of the surrounding
floodplains. Game
viewing from camp can be almost unbelievably
good. The entire camp is raised on
wooden platforms and walkways, allowing the
wildlife to pass safely below.
Game drives
in open 4x4 safari vehicles offer views of
all the plains game and birding at Mombo
is superb. Mombo is tough to beat as
a safari destination. |

Little Mombo Camp
Little
Mombo is actually connected to Mombo Camp via
raised walkway but is run as a totally separate
safari camp. Little Mombo offers the
same incredible wildlife and safari activities
- some say the best they've ever encountered
- but in a smaller, more private safari camp
setting.
Little Mombo's
three luxury guest rooms are exactly the
same design as at Mombo. Little Mombo
has its own gust lounge, dining area, kitchen
and plunge pool looking over the plains. The
premier standards are the same at both camps.
Little Mombo
is preferred by those wanting a more intimate
camp and may also be booked by small groups. |

Xigera Camp
Xigera
Camp is situated on "Paradise Island" in
the Moremi Game Reserve and Xigera's location
truly is a water land paradise. Xigera is one
of the few camps in the Okavango which offers
year-round permanent water activities like
boating, mekoro safaris and walks on secluded
islands.
Nestled into
a lovely island forest, the camp consists
of ten luxury tented rooms with stunning
views of the island. The entire camp
is built on raised wooden walkways and platforms
and a permanent channel flows all year right
in front of the camp.
Wildlife at
Xigera is superb, with lion, hyena, and leopard
even making nocturnal use of the footbridge
connecting Xigera's island to the next. Birding
at Xigera is truly special, especially during
the nesting season. Pel's fishing owl,
slaty egret, African skimmer and wattled
cranes being only a few of the "specials"
seen regularly. |
