Duma Tau camp is a real gem in Linyanti!
We arrived late and were whisked straight off on a safari immediately 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 was comfortable with effective mosquito net and the adjoining bath and shower were clean, with warm water for showering making things easy.
The safari experiences were fantastic - our guide, Lazi, was a real local expert with knowledge of tracking animals. I appreciate that things can be different depending on your guide but we didn't meet anyone else with a different guide who had complaints during their trip. The thing is, everyone's so enthusiastic that they're looking for the best game so they can see it themselves, and we got lucky seeing leopards, wild dogs, lion prides, lion cubs - it was hard to believe

we were only there for three days!!
We would go back in a heartbeat. The service was impeccable, and that's without touching on the food which, like most Wilderness Safari camps, was mouth watering.
A fantastic base in Linyanti reserve.

A surprising destination given transfers are undertaken through barren bushland (in dry season) - before you wind up beside the river where the scenery is superb. Relatively good wildlife spotting but not as good as that in some of Botswana's other parks, since the Salute Channel began flowing again. It looks as though the channel may dry up again, in which case guides in the area predict the wildlife viewing will be as outstanding as it once was.

Linyanti is nature pure. I always felt like having returned to the Garden of Eden!

Here I saw wild dog and was amazed at their pack loyalty to the alpha male and female. Then to witness an almost kill by their stalking was something not captured on film but my eyes and mind contain what a camera cannot do. The scenic beauty was wild and untamed. Lodging, guide, food, staff -- all wonderful.
