The cheaper way onto the Sandibe concession, and the reason it matters is the gap: this is roughly a quarter of what the lodge next door charges for game viewing on the same ground, with the same off-road and night-drive freedoms the reserve does not allow. Canvas rather than architecture, and no laundry, but the same guiding. &Beyond sell and book it entirely separately from the lodge.

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. Here is what that adds up to.
- 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.

Questions about &Beyond Sandibe Under Canvas
Is Sandibe Under Canvas good for families?
We found no child policy or minimum age for Sandibe Under Canvas in the record, and its website could not be checked to confirm one. It shares a family-suited concession with Sandibe next door, but ask the operator directly what applies to children before booking.
Can you self-drive to Sandibe Under Canvas?
No. Sandibe Under Canvas uses the same Sandibe airstrip as the lodge next door, with no public road access to this private concession. Every stay is fly-in only, arranged through the operator's own charter network from Maun.
What does the rate at Sandibe Under Canvas include?
The operator's confirmed rate covers accommodation, three meals a day, soft drinks, house wine, local spirits and beer, all safari activities, medical evacuation cover, VAT, park fees and airstrip transfers. Unlike the lodge next door, laundry is not included here, so pack accordingly.
Is Sandibe Under Canvas cheaper than the main lodge?
Yes. Sandibe Under Canvas runs from about a quarter of the price of the main lodge on the same concession, with the same guiding and off-road and night-drive freedoms. The trade-off is canvas rather than architecture, and laundry is excluded from the rate here.
