The most convenient entry point into Botswana for visitors to the Okavango Delta and Moremi Game Reserve is Maun International Airport (MUB), the main tourist airport in the country’s northwest.

Moremi is 154km/96mi from Maun and can be reached by plane or 4x4 vehicle, although roads in the area are sometimes closed after heavy rain. The drive usually takes about 3 to 4 hours*.

Whether you will be driving or flying here depends, to some extent, on where you are staying. Many lodges are only accessible by charter plane, but lodges and campsites in the Moremi Tongue are usually accessible by 4x4 vehicle. Several budget safari operators run 4x4 trips to the Moremi Tongue, but self-drive visitors can also go independently.

Your tour operator should take care of booking any charter flights that are part of your safari. There are no scheduled flights to Moremi, although there are numerous charter flights through Wilderness Air, Mack Air and others.

*Driving times are only a rough indication. You should always consider the possibility of significant delays.
