Hunting Africa! - A dream of many!  

The anticipation during preparations for the journey, the thrill of being on the African Continent, the excitement at dawn before the hunt, the stress until the sighting, the concentration of the stalk, the exhilaration of a well-placed shot and the reflections of the day around the evening campfire, are experiences that draw hunters back to Africa time and again!

A hunting safari in Southern Africa is more accessible than you think! Whether your preference is hunting the Big Five or the Tiny Five, we at David Tennent Hunting Safaris have the infrastructure to make your African Hunting Safari truly memorable.

We offer hunting safaris in various concession areas throughout South Africa as well as in Mozambique and Zimbabwe. These areas vary greatly in terms of topography, vegetation and species available and range from rolling savannah grassland to densely wooded bushveld, forest, river, swamp and mountain terrain – all prime trophy hunting territories.

You will find that Plains Game hunting is diverse and challenging with many species occurring only in certain areas. Many of our clients hunt their dangerous game in Mozambique and Zimbabwe, as well as South Africa. We cater for Bow, Rifle, Muzzle-loader and Handgun hunters and encourage you to take advantage of these excellent hunting opportunities. Let us help you discover the unparalleled enchantment of African trophy hunting in exciting destinations in Southern Africa.

The area in which your safari will be conducted depends on the trophies which are of interest to you, the time of year and the quota of animals available in any concession area. Once we have quoted on a hunt, there are no hidden costs and a remuneration agreement will be sent to you, if requested.

Clients hunting with David Tennent Hunting Safaris can do so with complete confidence as they are looked after from the pick-up at the airport, O.R Tambo International (Johannesburg), to when the trophies are hanging on the wall.

We have many references attesting to our commitment to our clients, many of whom have become great friends and come back year after year. First-time hunters are most welcome. Our youngest first-time hunter was a lass of 6 years old and our oldest first-timer was 83! So if you are planning your next safari to Africa, contact us, you will not be disappointed! Our goal at David Tennent Hunting Safaris is to ensure that each hunter enjoys a memorable experience which takes his or her specific requirements into account.

So, hunt Africa! Hunt South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.

It is encouraging to have more families coming to Africa. So while you are out hunting for the day, we can arrange game viewing, bird watching, nearby sightseeing and curio shopping for the rest of the family.

We use Highveld Taxidermy, www.highveldtaxidermists.com, for the mounting of trophies and Dip-Pack, www.dippack.com, for dipping and packing. If you have any questions regarding taxidermy and dipping and packing, or the cost involved, please click on the links. We also have agents that specialize in obtaining your temporary firearm import permits for a small fee. For assistance with these import permits, email sharon at bangy@telkomsa.net

All clients are accommodated in comfortable lodges with homely atmospheres. The power supply is on 220V so visitors should bring the necessary adapters for their appliances. The cuisine is superb, being a combination of traditional South African fare and game meat dishes, which are perfectly complimented by our famous South African wines.
