Hunting in Tanzania

This African country has a long professional hunting tradition, with strict quotas and vetted outfitters that deliver authentic, fair-chase experiences reminiscent of old Africa.

Tanzania offers vast, unfenced hunting blocks with low hunter density across the savanna, miombo forests, and wetlands. Species diversity is exceptional, with Cape buffalo, Sable, Roan, plus Masailand specialties like Lesser Kudu and Gerenuk on offer. The destination is also renowned for its dangerous game trophies, including four of Africa’s Big 5.

Tanzanian Hunts

This hunt is set in Selous, in South-Eastern Tanzania. The region is renowned for its wide array of species, including dangerous game such as Cape Buffalo, Elephant, Hippo, and Nile Crocodile that thrive in the region, given the wide array of species and diverse habitats.

Note: While this specific 28-day hunting package is quoted on ONE concession, hunters also have the choice to move between the remaining two concessions that the Outfitter offers. This is not included in the package price.
