Tanzania is about the authentic African safari. The real fair chase hunting, the old style vibes of East Africa, traditional tented camps and vast stretches of free-range hunting concessions. Tanzania offers first-class hunting for the dangerous game such as elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo, and a collection of plains jewels.
The hunting season in Tanzania is from 1st of July to 31st of December.
Arrival to Kilimanjaro or Dar es Salaam. Charter or regular flight, then car transfer to the
hunting area is required. 10-14 day hunt is required for leopard and/or buffalo and plains game.
Free-range hunting is organized in Tanzania. 60 game species are allowed to hunt for. Out of the Big Five, only the Rhino is not available.
We use 4x4 Toyota vehicles for transportation around the area. Buffalo and other plains game is hunted by spot-and-stalk. The leopard is hunted at the baits.
The hunters are accommodated in the comfortable tented camps built in the best African safari traditions. According to the local regulations, the camps are built in the beginning of the season and removed in the end. All camps have electricity and satellite phones. Dining area, bar, professional cook and separate tents for all hunters are at your disposal.

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
Henry David Thoreau
