Wing Shooting

Our classic bird shooting safaris will celebrate the
many riches of Africa’s greatest natural resource in timehonored
tradition and style. Imagine the ambiance of your
own exclusive tented camp, pitched in the heart of
breathtaking game country where Masai cattle graze
among herds of Gazelles, Wildebeest, Zebra and Giraffe.
In addition to hot-barreled wing shooting action, each day
will be filled with game viewing and photography and at
the end of which, in the distance, a gleaming campfire
beckons you back to camp. In its warm and welcoming
glow you will sit with drink in hand, like Roosevelt,
Hemingway and Ruark did so many years ago, looking,
listening and savoring the adventure of a day spent on the
African plains.
A typical day includes bird shooting in the early
morning and then returning to camp doing some game
viewing on the way. A late brunch is then in order after
which you have time to relax. Early afternoon is perfect for
driven and walk-up hunts. The late afternoon is great for
birds at the waterholes. Game birds in Tanzania include
sandgrouse, francolin, spurfowl, Guineafowl, Doves,
Ducks and Geese.
A wing shooting safari can also be combined with a
Big Game hunting safari or a photographic trip. Wing
shooting has never been this exciting and adventurous
before!
Horseback Hunting

In order to hunt the more remote parts of our Masailand areas we now offer
the option of horseback hunting.
The extensive mountain ranges especially in the north of Lake Natron have
until now been inacessible to all hunters due to the rough terrain.
Surveys on foot and from the air have established the presence of game.
Since trophy hunting started in recent times in Masailand - some 20 years
ago - there has been no record of anyone hunting the Matali Mountain range
in nothern Lake Natron.
The rocky foothills of Mount Galai is another area that has not been hunted
until now. Habitat and altitude in these areas varies from desert scrubland
of the rift valley floor at 1000 feet up to dense mountain rainforest at
7000 feet
Horseback hunting and fly camping is the most practical way to hunt these
places. We expect to take some exceptional trophies here during the 2004
season including lion, leopard, buffalo, lesser
kudu, gerenuk, oryx, bushbuck, grants gazelle, mountain reedbuck and cokes
hartebeest.
Photographic Safaris

You'll find unmatched diversity in planning a safari to the famous National
Parks and wilderness areas. You'll see that staggering game populations still
exist and can be viewed.
There is also the possibility of a balloon ride - a spectacular journey,
which may include drifting over the
wildebeest migration, or simply viewing the pristine beauty
of the Serengeti plains.
Combination Safaris
At your request we can design a combination safari
package. For example: You can embark upon a hunting safari followed
by a photographic trip, combine a wing shooting safari
with a photo safari, or follow a photographic safari with a
fishing trip to Lake Victoria.
