A Closer Look 🔎: Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi Game Reserve lies in the eastern reaches of Botswana’s Okavango Delta, combining permanent waterways and seasonal floodplains with open grasslands, forests and woodland. This mix of habitats makes it one of Botswana’s most rewarding wildlife areas.

The reserve is home to an impressive variety of wildlife, including elephants, buffalo, lions, leopards, cheetahs and African wild dogs, along with abundant birdlife. Depending on where you stay and the time of year, exploring Moremi can include traditional game drives as well as opportunities to experience the Delta’s waterways.

Moremi offers everything many travellers picture when they think of a Botswana safari: beautiful landscapes, excellent wildlife viewing and the chance to experience the unique environment of the Okavango Delta.

A good reminder that on safari, you’re travelling through their territory. 🦁

Travel Guide 🌍 Travelling in Africa in October

October brings some of the hottest conditions of the safari season, particularly across southern Africa, but the reward can be exceptional wildlife viewing.

With the dry season nearing its end, animals continue to gather around remaining water sources in Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and Zambia. In East Africa, wildlife viewing remains excellent, with the Great Migration back in the Serengeti.

It’s also a fantastic month for photography, with dry, dusty landscapes creating beautiful golden light, while Mozambique offers a great option for adding some beach time to your safari.

If an African safari is on your travel wish list, get in touch or speak with your local travel agent to find the journey that’s right for you.

**Tour Spotlight 🔎: Botswana Trans Kalahari (15 days)**

Journey through some of Botswana’s most remote and contrasting landscapes on this adventurous camping safari, from the vast salt pans of the Makgadikgadi to the waterways of the Okavango Delta and wide-open wilderness of the Central Kalahari.

The journey heads north from Johannesburg, exploring Goo-Moremi Gorge and the baobabs and vast salt pans surrounding Kubu Island before travelling into Moremi Game Reserve. Here, three nights of wild camping put you right in the heart of one of Botswana’s great wildlife areas, with game drives in search of elephant, buffalo, lion, wild dog and more.

From Moremi, you’ll travel deep into the Okavango Delta by mokoro, camp on a remote island and explore on foot, before heading south into the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. Spend four days discovering this immense wilderness, including Deception Valley and Leopard Pan, with the chance to encounter the Kalahari’s famed black-maned lions.

With seven nights spent wild camping in unfenced wilderness areas, this is a great choice for adventurous travellers looking to experience a wilder side of Botswana.

There’s no shortage of incredible things to photograph on safari, but a little preparation and a different way of looking at what’s around you can make a big difference to the images you bring home.

From getting comfortable with your camera before you leave to making the most of changing light and weather, we’ve pulled together a few tips inspired by the photography experts featured in a recent issue of *Travel Africa*.

And remember, it’s not all about getting the perfect wildlife shot. Photograph the landscapes, people, plants, places you stay and smaller details along the way. They’re all part of the safari story too.

What’s your favourite photo you’ve brought home from Africa?
