Trip Summary

Departs: Daily private departures based on a minimum of 2 passengers
..................................................
DumaTau is nestled deep within the vast Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, on the northernmost fringe of Botswana. The camp takes full advantage of its unique access to 45 kilometres (28 miles) of exclusive-traversing river frontage along both the Linyanti River and the Savuti Channel, and invites amazing wildlife encounters and adventures on the reserve’s pristine 126,000-hectares (311,353-acres) of unfenced, untamed wilderness.

Surrounded by migration paths, the camp overlooks the beautiful Osprey Lagoon, where centuries-old now-submerged elephant trails were created by parades of elephants, still regularly seen from every vantage point in camp.

With access to the fertile Kwando-Chobe ecosystem and Savuti Channel, the area is home to the greatest habitat diversity in northern Botswana. Expect to see marshes and waterways, riverine woodland, Kalahari apple-leaf and cathedral-like mopane woodlands, as well as grasslands.

Game viewing on water and on land in the Linyanti is exceptional. Guests will encounter buffalo and huge numbers of elephant all along the channels. Track predators on the prowl from game drives, and learn more about the wildlife on a guided nature walk with our knowledgeable guides. Back in camp, guests soak in iconic Linyanti scenes from our pool deck, or indulge in a relaxing massage at the Osprey Retreat (with spa, gym and lap pool) for rejuvenation.

    Day 1 - Linyanti Concession

    This morning after breakfast you will be transferred to the local airstrip for your charter light aircraft flight to your next camp located in the Linyanti Concession. (BLD)

    On arrival at the airstrip, you will be met and transferred to your camp in time for lunch and an afternoon game drive.

    Accommodation: 2 nights DumaTau.

    Day 2 – Linyanti Concession

    A full day to explore the concession with the activities offered. (BLD)

    Linyanti Concession –
    The Linyanti concession in northern Botswana provides a great contrast to the Okavango Delta. The Linyanti is sandwiched between the Okavango Delta to the south and west and the Chobe National Park to the East.

    The Linyanti reserve spreads across 1,250km² in the north east of Botswana, between Chobe and the Okavango Delta. This is a vast area dominated woodland and two water systems. The northern frontier of the concession is formed by the mighty Linyanti River, which also forms the border between Botswana and Namibia.

    The Linyanti River to the north of NG15 is a permanent watercourse and is thus a magnet for the wildlife of northern Botswana and a destination for migration from the dry areas of northern Botswana. Game viewing is therefore excellent, especially during the dry winter months when surface water from rainfall has disappeared in other areas. Game is difficult to spot in the extensive areas of mopane woodland. Game activities will focus on the open areas of floodplains and riverine forest.

    Animals – In terms of fauna, lion is common along with spotted hyena. Leopard frequent the larger trees in the riverine forest. Antelopes such as kudu, impala, reedbuck and steenbok will be found all year round. The area is a stronghold of waterbuck; these are found in few other areas. Giraffe are stalwarts here as are warthog and baboon. Wild dog traverse the area and are most likely to be seen in July and August in the Linyanti.

    Large breeding herds of wildebeest, zebra, elephant and buffalo will be seen in the Linyanti from June to December. In the first six months of the year, smaller groups and small bull herds of elephant will be seen. Smaller mammals include side-striped jackal, bat-eared fox, serval and aardwolf.

    Birds –Birdlife includes carmine bee-eaters which have learned to follow game drive vehicles to feed on the insects that fly up to avoid the wheels; a wonderful, colourful spectacle for the passengers. Raptors in the area are martial and fish eagles and bateleurs. Black and slaty egrets, wattled crane and African skimmers are found here.

    Day 3 –- End of your Duma Tau Package

    This morning after breakfast you will be transferred to the airstrip for your flight back to Maun and your onward arrangements. (B)
