Moremi Game Reserve can be visited throughout the year, but the best time for wildlife viewing is during the dry months from July to October. This is when skies are sunny, temperatures are mild and water levels are highest. The wet months from January to March are more problematic because areas of the reserve become inaccessible and some lodges close.
