Wilderness Little DumaTau Twin/Double Suite(s)
Overview
This charming camp is a haven of sophisticated elegance, with just four supremely spacious guest suites, each with a private plunge pool and comfortable lounge, and a capacious bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers.
Exploration is a theme that recurs throughout the history of this region – and forms a key part of the guest experience. The design of the camp itself is intended to prompt questions and encourage guests to discover the purpose of Wilderness Little DumaTau.
The story of the camp and of the region is told through ‘curiosity boxes’ in the guest suites, and interpretive library in the main area, with the focus on two of the most iconic – and itinerant – species that can be seen from Wilderness Little DumaTau: elephants and African wild dogs.

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.
