Luxury ecotourism company Wilderness relaunched its northern Botswana safari property in 2021. Named DumaTau — which translates to ‘a lion’s roar’ — the safari has been going from strength to strength ever since. A colossal 275,000-acre private space tucked beside the Linyanti Chobe National Park, DumaTau is a gorgeous experience of epic achievements. Encompassing woodlands, swamps and lagoons, the vistas offered are extraordinary. Accommodation is arranged over eight 1,528-sq-ft tents, featuring local art and textiles, as well as private plunge pools that overlook the lagoon. Be sure to spend some time post-game drive at the exciting new spa, the Osprey Retreat.
