What unique wildlife viewing opportunities does HATAB offer within the NG/28 Moremi Game Reserve?

HATAB's location in NG/28 provides exceptional opportunities to spot predators like wild dogs, lions, and leopards, which thrive in this less-trafficked sector of Moremi. The diverse habitats, from floodplains to mopane woodlands, also support large herds of elephants and buffalo, alongside a rich variety of birdlife, especially during the wet season.

When is the optimal time to visit HATAB for the best safari experience in the NG/28 Moremi area?

The dry season, from May to October, is generally considered the best time to visit HATAB. During these months, wildlife congregates around permanent water sources, making sightings more frequent and predictable in the NG/28 floodplains.
