Zimbabwe Buffalo & Plains Game — 14 Days
Zimbabwe
Om denne jagt
Hunting territory: Zambezi Valley (Omay / Nyakasanga / Matetsi blocks)
Habitat: Mopane woodland, Zambezi riverine fringe
Zimbabwe's Zambezi Valley is free-range dangerous-game country. This package allocates roughly ten days to buffalo on foot, with plains-game days for valley species that share the same mopane woodland and river fringe — no second camp move.
Impala and waterbuck are abundant between buffalo sessions; bushbuck in the riverine thickets rounds out the valley bag. Physically demanding — prior African or elk/moose experience recommended.
Typical all-inclusive quote: US$24,800–$26,900 (1×1 hunter, trophy fees included where noted by outfitters). 14-day Zambezi buffalo + valley plains packages at US$24,800–26,900 (GameHuntingSafaris, John Sharp Safaris); 10-day buffalo-only quotes from ~US$13,500 exclude the plains-game days in this package.

Udstyr du skal medbringe
Low-profile soft boots; insect repellent; quality binoculars; personal clothing. Own rifle optional — many valley hunters hire buffalo and plains-game rifles locally; coordinate CITES/export paperwork with your outfitter regardless.

Camp
Permanent or semi-permanent tented camp in the Zambezi Valley: ensuite or shared ablutions, generator power, mess tent with cold drinks, and daily laundry. Camp moves are uncommon on valley blocks — expect one base for the safari.
