Information on the hunting area and Botswana

Lion Hunting in Botswana has been closed AGAIN by government until further notice

For the 2010 seasons we offer safaris for Trophy Elephant and Buffalo in Chobe CH1 & CH2 areas. These areas are commonly referred to as the Chobe "Enclave". These areas offer hunters the most realistic chances for Elephant above 60lbs of Ivory per side. Buffalo quality and quantity is also excellent.

Hunters arrive and depart Botswana through Maun or Kasane (via Victoria Falls) respectively depending on the safari. All elephant safaris will be for a minimum of 12 days. Additional plains game species are available on request in all areas based in quota availability.
