Budget
Inside the park
Park-run (DWNP)
The campsite with the best position in Moremi, on the edge of the Xakanaxa lagoons where the dry Mopane Tongue meets permanent water. Book through Kwalate Safaris in Maun (office above FNB, New Mall), not DWNP, and book far ahead: this is one of the two campsites that fill first. Unfenced, no power, and elephants walk through camp, so no citrus in your food boxes.
Why you'd pick it

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
±$40 per person. Kwalate publishes no rates online; around US$40 non-resident, P100 citizen, on enquiry. DWNP camping fee (P60 non-resident) 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.
