Wilderness DumaTau – Kingdom Of Elephants
Wilderness DumaTau name means ‘roar of the lion’ in Setswana, but to us it’s also home of the elephants. This luxury safari camp is nestled in Botswana's Linyanti, between two busy elephant corridors, with 45 km of river frontage making it an unparalleled safari destination. The game viewing is outstanding, with wildlife frequently moving through the camp. Add to that a spa, a lagoon-side fire pit and a sparkling pool overlooking the water, and it’s no wonder DumaTau is an award-winning camp.
