I agree with all the other 5-star posts. Wilderness Safaris are great! My guide’s name was “Name”. I was amazed at what work and energy the entire staff put into making this a great camp. Meals were out of this world! I could tell they really cared about their work. It’s a private reserve so there’s never more than 3... More

We were very excited to be here. We were warmly greeted and genuinely taken care of for 3 nights. Accommodation, meals, tea time were all truly enjoyable. This camp handled gluten free with yummy creativity. I thought the staff were very warm, engaging and the place well managed. Our driver worked very hard at finding animals and we were delighted...

Wonderful staff, a great location, excellent food. It could not have been better for our family of two adults, a 10 year old and a 14 year old. Thanks to all the staff especially Ben, the two Abbys, Ron our guide, Kate, and Kira. One of our favourite moments was the dinner out under the stars but the shear volume... More

Wow. Duma Tau camp is a real gem in Linyanti! We arrived late and were whisked straight off on safari such that we didn't see our room in the daylight until we returned from the following morning's safari, when the sun had finally risen. But that deserves a first comment - the room was worth the wait! The double bed... More

Our group (9 people) stayed here for 3 days. The camp is literally tents (albeit nice ones) connected by wooden bridges. I felt like part of the Swiss Family Robinson (but richer). STAFF: Great. Everyone is relaxed and nice. I got really sick while I was there (not their fault) and I had personal attention, medicine, and contact with a... More

OK. Dena from Trip Advisor, you made it. I have to write another review. It will be about another lodge in Botswana. It will be about Duma Tau. I just returned from it two days ago and on this trip it got my gold medal. With wilde nature the situation may change any moment but as of today, they have... More
