A drawing stands in because nobody has sent us a photograph of Elephant Pan yet. We only publish images we have permission for. Send us five and this page changes the same week.
Mid-range
Outside the gate
Safari company
A simple camp on a mopane-country pan whose underground hide puts you at trunk level while elephants drink overhead, one of the best photographic setups in northern Botswana at any price. Renamed from Hyena Pan, so search both names when comparing rates.
Why you'd pick it
- A sunken underground photographic hide at the waterhole
- 24/7 waterhole livestream from camp
- The cheapest Natural Selection bed in the Khwai area
What's here
Arranged from the lodge:
- Guided walks
Read from Elephant Pan's own website in July 2026. Anything not listed we could not confirm, which is not the same as it being absent.
What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Moremi Game Reserve charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside, and almost no booking site shows you that.
- Park entryP270 for non-residents, roughly $20.
- $20per person, per day
- VehicleP75 a day for a foreign-registered vehicle, roughly $6.
- $6per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $138 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
The full fee schedule for Moremi Game ReserveRates
From $595 pppn. Published 2026 ladder: $595 green to $1,045 peak season, excluding the $60 conservation fee. Formerly Hyena Pan; the old name is still widespread.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We have not been able to check whether meals, drinks and activities are included here, so treat this figure as the bed alone until it is.
Indicative 2026 rates per person per night sharing, gathered July 2026 from operators' own rate sheets where published. Several operators (Kwando Safaris, Desert & Delta, Kwalate Safaris) publish no public rates at all; where that is the case we say 'on enquiry' rather than print a guess. Always confirm with the lodge, and check whether park fees are included.
