About this hunt
We offer you original African hunting adventures in the vast, unspoiled, Mozambique wilderness. We operate numerous concessions in Sofala, Manica & Tete Provinces that still boasts large populations of both big game and plains game. These huge areas cover a wonderful range of varying habitat. As a result, we are able to offer a complete range of species available to Mozambique, ranging from the small and elusive forest duikers to the big four, leopard, lion, buffalo and elephant. Should you wish to take any of the other plains game we have on offer, with one of the above safaris, you may do so for the charge of the trophy fee only.

Excellent hunting experience
The game quality is excellent, the Staff at Mahimba camp are very efficient and courteous. PH Martin Snyman very knowledgeable about area and game and a very good host.
The heat of October in the Delta is extreme but it's part of the adventure and the best time to hunt buffalo.
It is real African hunt. No fences, no plays. Everything is naturally!
It was real hunt
Sometimes I couldn't walk as my ph did.
