Climate

Tanzania’s climate is typically warm and pleasant. The dry season (June–October) is the best for hunting, with cooler mornings and evenings. The short rainy season runs from November to December, while the long rains occur from March to May.

 

Hunting Areas

Hunting takes place in large government concessions across Selous, Masailand, Rungwa, and western Tanzania. Each region offers distinct species diversity. Camps are tented but fully serviced, with meals, non-alcoholic beverages and laundry included.
