EnquireMoremi crossing is a part of a number of ‘Under One Botswana Sky’ properties located on the Okavango Delta, Northern Botswana. On the border of the beautiful Moremi Game Reserve this lodge offers some fantastic walking safaris and comfortable accommodation for those on a smaller budget.
Set on an island in the middle of the Delta, Moremi crossing has brilliant access to the floodplains that spread across the area. The main building is large with an open plan deck, giving guests great views of nearby Chief’s island and the surrounding greenery. Under thatched roofs there is a dining room, lounge, bar and shop and a smaller decking area leads to a pleasant swimming pool.
Activities here make use of the many waterways and floodplains and consequently no vehicle safaris are on offer. Canoe, motorboat and walking safaris are how guests experience the Delta and are a fantastic way of seeing this unique habitat. Island camping, sunset cruises and fishing can also be organised leaving guests with plenty to choose from.
Accommodation is split into sixteen luxury Meru style tents making this a fairly large camp. Each tent is spacious and traditionally furnished with private decks and lovely views. All rooms have conventional ensuite bathrooms and solar powered outdoor showers. A honeymoon suite and Family tent are also available.
Children from 8 are welcome at Moremi, although a minimum age of 12 for walking and canoe safaris means, for the full experience, children must be 12 years or over. There are no specific activities for children as seen at more commercial properties, but guides do their best to tailor the experience to each group. The family tent can house a family of four comfortably.
Moremi has a great position on the Okavango Delta and offers a much more relaxed safari experience. The absence of vehicles makes for a nice change, although guests shouldn’t come expecting to see larger game in this way, although elephants can be reliably spotted. A high level of service and a competitive price makes this a great place from which to explore the Delta.
We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!
The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.
I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.
The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.
All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).
From my seven-year-old son:
I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.
In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

We had an amazing experience - absolutely loved it.
Mohamed and Said were great and very patient especially with me going downhill - was quite nervous about the scree slopes and paths.Will be a trip we remember forever
