Inside the park
Park-run (DWNP)
The classic Moremi campsite, deep in the reserve where the Mboma loop meets the lagoons. Unfenced, so hyaenas patrol at night and you zip your tent fully. One thing most guides will not tell you: after the record 2026 floods the Third Bridge area stayed closed even once the rest of the reserve reopened in April, and we found no confirmation it has reopened. Call Xomae before you build an itinerary around it.
Why you'd pick it
- The most storied self-drive campsite in Botswana
- Sunset boat cruises from the Third Bridge boat station
- A small shop, the only supplies inside the reserve
What's here
- Campsite
Read from Third Bridge Campsite'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
P561 per person. Non-resident rate from Xomae's published 2023/24 tariff, so expect an increase. Citizens P122.40, residents P193.80, SADC P336.60. The tented camp charges P1,326 per person sharing. DWNP camping fee and park fees come on top.
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.
