“Very lush scenery”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011
3
people found this review helpful

Camp Moremi is placed in wonderfully lush scenery. We viewed the wild dogs in the park several times, but were unlucky with the big game at this moment of the year (november). Watch for the little bushbabies in front of your room at night!
Our safariguide was Frank, who we found a very able driver and spotter. He was most entertaining at dinner too! Generally we found the staff at this camp very able and independent, and we had the finest discussions with them about the country and life in general at the campfire after dinner.

The accomodating consists of two different tents, one for sleeping and a separate bath-tent. We liked it, but you have to cross over in open air. The sleeping tent furniture is a bit dated.

Make sure you get the view from the watchtower, which is a little walk from the swimming pool. Central facilities are placed between tents 1-6 and 7-11. Tent 11 has a big private terrace but is also the longest walk away from the bar.

“Great game viewing but accommodation could be better”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

The compact tents at Camp Moremi are raised on a platform and the bathroom is adjacent. When we arrived, our tent was SCORCHING hot and really uncomfortable to be in, even with the fan on, which made it a challenge to have the scheduled afternoon siesta.

Other small details that were disappointing were (especially at such high prices): dirty rugs in the room, holes in the mosquito nets, electricity that switched off at midnight so the fans didn't work. Of the four camps we stayed in, Camp Moremi for accommodation was the least well thought out and least comfortable - our 2 night stay was sufficient.

On the plus side, the other buildings in the camp are beautiful and well maintained - including the dinner/ bar area and the breakfast area. The food is delicious and there's a good variety.

The game viewing is great and the location excellent. We saw zebra, lions, cheetahs, monkeys, impala, hippos, elephants and hyenas.

We also took a wonderful water safari - excellent for bird watching.

All the staff were attentive and friendly and our guide Frank was knowledgeable and approachable.

“Fantastic experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011

I absolutely loved everything in Camp Moremi. The staff was great and rangers are extremely friendly making the safari adventure really great. The possibility of making boat trips for the sunset is amazing. The tents are really nice, well taken care off and the common areas are awesome. Food was really good. I really loved my stay there and hope to come back soon.

“We loved everything about Camp Moremi”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 August 2011

Staff and guests intermingle in this intimate and homey camp. You feel part of a community and learn about the wildlife, vegetation, and culture of the Okavango Delta. The facilities were beautiful and eco-friendly. The daily schedule is designed to provide a fun and interactive stay.
