Exotic Plains Game Hunting Safaris In Tanzania

Tanzania offers some of the best exotic plains game hunting in all of East Africa.  No one area offers all species, and Tanzania is a vast country with a poor road system.  Safaris must be carefully planned so that the targeted species are found within the hunting concession that one has chosen to hunt.

One of the better areas for exotic plains game hunting is an area in northeastern Tanzania called Maasailand.  Maasailand is known for its “East African” antelope.  These include the lesser kudu, East African impala, Gran’s Gazelle, Thomson’s gazelle, southern gerenuk, Coke’s hartebeest, fringe-eared oryx, eastern bohor reedbuck, Chanler’s mountain reedbuck, white-bearded wildebeest and Kirk’s dik-dik.   Fringing Maasailand are the topi antelope and a variant of the Gran’s gazelle known as Robert’s gazelle.  East African eland and rarities such as Abbott duiker and East African suni can also be found in certain areas of this region.

Central Tanzania features the Rungwa and Kisigo Game Reserves which are both excellent hunting areas.  Although primarily a big game hunting destination for leopard, buffalo and some lions, there is a good population of southern antelope species. This area offers some of the best sable and roan hunting in all of East Africa.  Sables in the mid 40’s and upwards are occasionally taken in this region.  Other common exotic plains game found here includes the East African impala.

The Selous Reserve features mostly the southern variety of exotic plains game but does offer the Lichtenstein hartebeest, the Nyassa wildebeest and the East African eland.  The Selous is known as more of a big game hunting area and plains game takes on more of a secondary role to the world-class dangerous game hunting that is found here.

Peter’s gazelle, puku, defassa waterbuck, and Lelwel hartebeest are also found in Tanzania in certain areas.  With this wide variety of exotic plains game that can be hunted, Tanzania stands out as one of the greatest exotic plains game destinations on the continent!

"I was hunting with my son and my batchmate from school. We had an experience of a life time and will definitely repeat the experience again. The weather was perfect. We shot Kudu / Zebra / Wildebeest / Impala / Red Hartebeest / Blesbuck / a day of bird shooting." 

"We took back  memories for a life time  and will surly recommend the experience to other hunters."

"I looked long and far for a good deal on a lioness hunt.  By far, Discount African Hunts had the best price.  I had the hunt of a lifetime and took a beautiful lioness at close range with my bow.  The Professional Hunter was first class, the lodge was first class and my whole experience was unbelievable.  I will book with John Martins when I return to Africa to hunt leopard  in Zimbabwe.

"Best advice I can give is don't let the word DISCOUNT scare you. I was skeptical but I have hunted all over and I can tell you these trips are top notch! Everything was described accurately, no surprises. I took 9 trophies - almost every one made gold medal. I would highly recommend John Martins and Discount African Hunts. I already have another trip booked with them and I am looking at 2 more. I got everything I wanted and saved thousands doing it!"
