The Niassa Province in Mozambique
Niassa, is truly wild Africa. A vast and untouched wilderness. It does not get more remote than this. This prime hunting concession in Mozambique is famous for producing trophy Lions and Cape Buffalo. Sable populations in this are good, with recent game estimates in excess of 9000. You will be spoilt for choice.
The Niassa Province regularly delivers world class trophies and quality “Dagga Boys”, famous for their attitude and character. These Buffalo can charge like a military tank, so shot placement will need to be “on the money”. Takes one bullet to kill a Cape Buffalo, anther few to convince the Cape Buffalo of that fact.
The Niassa Reserve is beautifully managed by having moderate quota allocations per species, age-appropriate harvesting and is well isolated from human activities. Bordering Tanzania, Niassa is the largest conservation area in Mozambique at more than 26 000 square miles.
The province of Niassa, is a wild life paradise like nowhere else in Africa. This should not be surprising as Niassa is part of the same eco-system as Tanzania’s Selous Reserve.
Grant and his team of professionals have been in business since 2005 and are well known within the hunting industry.
This team knows all the good hunting areas and have a passion for dangerous game hunting. Besides trophy Cape Buffalo and Lion, Garnt has a wide variety of plains game available.

Put in the effort, do the miles and you will be rewarded with your trophy dangerous game animals. These hunting grounds are also well known for producing trophy Leopard, a possible consideration for the next safari.
This area also boasts extremely healthy populations of Lichtenstein’s Hartebeest, Zebra (Bhoem’s) and Livingstone Eland. Sable, Kudu, Nyala, Waterbuck, Bushbuck (Chobe) and tiny ten members, Duiker (red/blue and Grey), Sharpes Grysbok are also available. Let’s not forget the famous Niassa Wildebeest. All these antelope can be added to the hunting safari for an additional trophy fee per species.
Dangerous Game hunting in Niassa is on foot, up close and personal. Shots will be taken at close range. Hunting in Africa does not get any better than this.
You will fly into OR Tambo international airport in South Africa and then take an airlink flight to Phemba Mozambique. On arrival at Phemba you will then take a charter flight (to be arranged with your outfitter) that will take you to your hunting camp. The hunting areas are true “wild Africa” and road transport to camp is near impossible. The Charter is $5000 round trip (subject, like all things to change), but this can be less if there are any guests sharing. Please note that the charter would need to be booked at least 2 months in advance and must be paid in cash on the day of your flight or pre-paid by transfer.
Each of the camps has luxury safari tents with bathroom and toilet ensuite, and hot and cold running water 24/7. All camps have their own solar systems or generators for power supplies as well as high speed satellite internet and all other necessities required to make for a comfortable stay.
Daily laundry service is of course offered and included. Each camp is complete with iridium satellite phone in case of an emergency. We encourage clients to hire a phone prior to the safari if they wish to be able to call home on the hunt. Some camps have regular cell network and data capabilities if you wish to bring your mobile phone.
Do not miss the chance to embark on this extraordinary hunting adventure in the rugged and untamed Niassa province in Mozambique. This classic package offers the perfect combination of excitement, enjoyment and will most certainly keep the hunter busy over the 18-day safari.
