Northern Botswana
Duma Tau Camp
DumaTau has eight classic tents, each featuring a private plunge pool and elevated on wooden walkways, allowing guests to observe wildlife as it roams freely through the camp. The interiors showcase handcrafted mosaic tile, acacia wood, and indigenous textiles, embodying the essence of the Linyanti region, renowned as one of Botswana's most revered wildlife sanctuaries. Sited on the banks of the Osprey Lagoon, the camp is located on a strip of riverine forest and floodplain along the Linyanti River, bisected by an ancient watercourse: the Savute Channel.
A classic safari camp with tents in the 308,000-acre Linyanti concession. Add to that a spa, a lagoon-side fire pit and a swimming pool overlooking the water.
Guests at Duma Tau love the location on the water and the opportunity to take a boat for bird and animal
sightings from that perspective.
Duma Tau Diaries
Duma Tau is in the northern part of Botswana with great concentrations of elephant in the dry season and good viewing of leopard. The camp offers easy access to Linyanti Swamps, Savute Channel and Linyanti woodlands. The land’s many habitats and the river create a diverse home for a variety of wildlife, from plains game to predators, with the endangered wild dog and the elusive leopard.

Safari
Duma Tau means 'roar of the lion' yet it is the elephant that reigns here. As evening creeps in, the campfire is lit on the soft sands of the riverbank – the ideal place for a family or small group. The combination of habitats, from floodplain to savannah and woodland, makes for diverse game viewing, with regulars such as elephant, plains game and lion, to unusual antelope like roan and sable seen.
