Payment Types Accepted: Personal Check, Travelers Check, Money Orders, Cashier Check Description:    MOZAMBIQUE is one of the least developed countries in Southern Africa. For years Mozambique was in a state of war and suffered great political instability. However, this has now all passed and the country is a wonderful, beautiful and safe destination in which to hunt.   The hunting industry in Mozambique has been well controlled by Government in recent years, with policies that ensure the participation of local people who receive many benefits from this valuable resource. Consequently, poaching has declined and the game populations are increasing.       Safaris De Mocambique operates on the shores of Lake Cahorra Bassa. This area is situated in the Northern Tete province and borders Zimbabwe in the West and South, and the Zambezi River and Lake Cahorra Bassa to the North. The concession is almost one million acres in extent and home to populations of both soft skinned and big game animals.       The area has very diverse habitats, ranging from Cathedral mopane and Jesse bush, to riverine forest and alluvial floodplain. It supports healthy populations of plains game, including Sable, Water Buck and Roan, as well as other typical Zambezi valley animals such as Kudu, Zebra, Impala, Bush buck, Warthog, Duiker and Grysbok. Elephant and Buffalo are abundant in the concession, which is also renown for its big cats.   The vast expanse of water (160km northern boundary) is home to large numbers of Hippo and Crocodile.    The prime hunting species offered in this unspoiled wilderness include Elephant, Cape buffalo, Sable, Leopard, Lion, Crocodile and Hippo. Note that Elephant trophies may not be imported into the Untied States at this time. There are also good quality Bush buck, Eland and Roan Antelope.   Mozambique is a Malaria area and prophylactics and other precautions are essential. The climate is variable with the cool season from April to August when temperatures range from 20 – 30°C, rising to highs of up to 42°C in October. The camps are very comfortable, some East African tented and some typical brick under thatch.   If you are looking for an exciting old – fashioned Safari, Mozambique is the place to go. You can fly into Harare where you will be met and transferred to your charter flight which lands at a new airstrip close to the camp.       BASIC SAFARI RATES   (Quoted in USD)   Trophy Fees Are Not Included in Rates       ELEPHANT SAFARIS:-   15-Day 1X1 Elephant Bull& Plains Game.......................................................... $1400 per day............. 21,000       18-Day 1X1 Elephant Bull & Buffalo or Leopard & Plains Game....................... $1500 per day............ $27,000       28-Day 1X1 Elephant, Lion, Leopard, Buffalo & Plains Game........................... $2250 per day............ $63,000       LION, LEOPARD, BUFFALO & PLAINS GAME SAFARIS:-   15-Day 1X1 Lion & Plains Game........................................................................ $2250 per day............ $33,750       18 to 21-Day 1X1 Lion & Leopard or Buffalo Bull & Plains Game                                 $2250 per day       15-Day 1X1 Leopard, Buffalo Bull & Plains Game............................................. $1300 per day............ $19,500       15-Day 1X1 Leopard or Buffalo & Sable or Roan.............................................. $1300 per day............ $19,500       15-Day Leopard & Plains Game........................................................................ $1150 per day............ $17,250       15-Day Buffalo & Sable or Roan........................................................................ $1300 per day............ $19,500       12-Day 1X1 Buffalo, Hippo, Croc & Plains Game............................................... $1200 per day............ $14,400       7 to 10-Day 1X1 Hippo, Croc & Plains Game..................................................... $1200 per day       10-Day 1X1 Buffalo & Plains Game................................................................... $1200 per day............ $12,000       7 to 10-Day 1X1 Plains Game Only...................................................................... $950 per day       Observers: non-hunting family member or companion accompanying the safari...... $250 per day       Notes:   ∣        Firearms permit -
