DumaTau Camp

General Facilities

Raised above the ground to take advantage of the sweeping river vistas, DumaTau's communal area consists of a dining room, lounge and bar, all leading onto an expansive viewing deck. A fire pit at the end of the lagoon jetty makes a picturesque place to keep warm at night or share bush tales with other guests.

The camp's sparkling swimming pool is where you can find welcome relief from the afternoon heat. Aside from twice-daily game drives in a 4×4, you can enjoy guided walking safaris along the Linyanti River and Savuti Channel. Sunset cruises on a pontoon are offered as well as mekoro (based on traditional dugout canoes) trips through the reserve's many beautiful and unspoilt waterways and channels.

This eco-friendly camp runs entirely on solar energy for hot water and lighting, and is built from sustainable timber with ‘green' insulating materials used in its construction. Water-conscious waste removal is also practised on the property. A daily laundry service is available, meaning you can pack light.

Pre-teen and teenage guests will be taken under the wing of their Bush Buddy, who will take them on safe nature walks, teach them traditional African games and lead them on an exciting treasure hunt. Children also receive age-appropriate gifts, magazines and snacks at DumaTau Camp.

Dining

Enjoy a continental buffet breakfast before your morning safari and a substantial brunch upon your return from the wilderness. A decadent choice of sweet and savoury snacks – like freshly-baked lemon cookies, mini quiches and mushroom crostini – is laid out for afternoon tea to be enjoyed before your evening game drive. Dinner is a buffet-style, candlelit affair accompanied by wine and served on the deck under the stars.
