Duma Tau is a 10-roomed luxury tented camp located in the private 125 000 hectare Linyanti Wildlife Reserve which borders onto the western boundary of Chobe National Park in northern Botswana. Duma Tau camp is built on raised boardwalks under a shady grove of mangosteen trees, overlooking a large hippo-filled lagoon on the Linyanti waterways. The source of the Savuti Channel is close to Duma Tau and game drives along the Savuti are one of the highlights.

The rooms are spacious, raised off the ground and under thatch with canvas walls allowing guests to enjoy the night sounds of Africa from the comfort of their beds. The bathroom facilities are en-suite and each room also has an outside shower. The main areas include a dining room, pub, lounge, curio shop, plunge pool and a special guest toilet with a fantastic view. The region has all the habitat diversity to make it a haven for wildlife.

Activities at Duma Tau are diverse and allow guests to spend time on the water (if water levels permit this), on land and occasionally on foot. Day and night game drives are conducted in open 4x4 vehicles along the Savuti Channel and the banks of Linyanti River. There are many hides in the area where guests can enjoy wildlife viewing up close and away from a vehicle. One of the best hides is right at the source of the Savuti and many species of wildlife and birdlife can usually be enjoyed from this hide.

The area is famous for its elephant concentrations in the winter months and for the great general game viewing all year. Huge herds of elephant congregate in winter along the waterways and lagoons and at waterholes that are located along the Savuti channel. Also during these dry months Sable and Roan traverse the flood plains. All the predators such as lion, leopard, cheetah and wild dog feast on the prey species in the area including impala, zebra, giraffe, wildebeest, lechwe, tsessebe and other plains animals.
