Overview of Namibia Luxury Hunting Safari - Hunters Namibia Safaris

Hunters Namibia Safaris is a highly acclaimed Namibia luxury hunting safari company founded in 1984.  Hunters Namibia has an international reputation as Namibia’s premier safari company.

A highlight of every safari is that the protein from your hunt is critical to the 260+ vulnerable children at the local school nearby.  You will have the privilege of delivering the meat to the school!

Presidents of Safari Club International, Dallas Safari Club and Shikar Safari Club have chosen this outfitter as their safari destination. Craig Boddington, the famous American Hunting writer, has hunted here on three occasions and makes numerous references to these safaris in his articles and books.

This is the ideal hunting destination for first time African hunters, experienced well-traveled hunters as well as non-hunting observers and family groups. Once you have experienced the genuine warmth of this family, uniquely Namibian hospitality, as well as the excellent hunting, you are sure to want to return to this African paradise.  The vast majority of clients are returning clients.Namibia Luxury Hunting Safari

About Hunters Namibia Safaris 

The hunting area is privately owned by the family and covers an area of over 50, 000 acres (approximately 80 square miles) of pristine wilderness area populated only by free ranging game.  An adjoining property adds another 40 square miles to the hunting area.  24 species of huntable game as well as an impressive variety of game birds (depending on the season) are available for trophy hunters and wing shooting enthusiasts.  Many additional species can be viewed and photographed.

The family’s dedication to the wildlife, environment, local communities and their country is evident in every aspect of their operation. The family is actively involved in the Namibian Professional Hunting Association- NAPHA, and is personally involved with the Namibian government at every level. The family are twelfth-generation Africans, who are passionate about their country and continent.

Trophy quality is consistently outstanding due to the decision to go for exclusivity rather than to commercialize. Records show that 92% of trophies taken over the past 27 years qualify for the top half of the SCI Record Book. On average, hunting clients take one trophy per day, but no limit is placed on the number of species that you may take during a specific safari period. Short safaris are, however, not recommended as much of the pleasure of hunting, as well as appreciation of the environment, is lost during a high pressure safari.

When we design your African safari you can expect the following:  We will listen as you share your vision of what your African Safari Experience should look like.  We then begin designing your safari with lodge and destination selection, activities selection, flights, meet & greet services, travel insurance, clothing & equipment list, countdown to Africa (this assist you with detail preparation leading up to trip time), detailed pricing with all included/not included items, and more.

As a full service African Safari specialists, we have visited over 80+ safari lodges in Africa over the last 30 years.  We selected only a handful of those for you that have met our strenuous criteria.  Combination big game hunting, bird hunting, photo safari, Cape Town and Victoria Falls safaris are our specialty.

Testimonial:

“”80 square miles of unfenced wilderness, hundreds of animals and only one hunting party, it doesn’t get any better.
I have hunted for 40 years on 4 continents and Hunters Namibia is by far my favorite experience.
My favorite place for hunting free range animal using spot and stalk techniques.
Marina and the staff at Hunters Namibia make sure even the smallest details are taken care for from the time they pick you up at the airport until you leave.
Johnny, our PH, is a master of using terrain and vegetation as cover to get you into the shooting position you are comfortable.
The ranch, our accommodations, the food, the staff and the hunting are all first rate.'”

Hunting

The vast land you will be hunting is  situated about a 45 minute drive from Windhoek International Airport. The property covers an area of approx. 80 square miles and is populated by an abundance of game. The terrain consists of small rocky hills with huge savannas and patches of bushy areas. The entire hunting area is natural, with open water holes and very few man-made improvements and is still the real Africa. Additional concession areas are available when required, most bordering on their own property. This increases the hunting area to an unlimited movement area in excess of 40,000 hectare (over 150 square miles).

All hunts are spot and stalk in the classic safari hunting style.  If you are looking for a classic hunting safari, this is it.  Their reputation is the finest in Namibia.

One of their qualified and experienced Namibian Professional Hunters will accompany you on your hunt at all times, and may do so with a maximum of two hunting clients per P.H. at a time. No more than 30 hunting clients are accepted per season.

While hunting, classic, open Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles are used, but all stalking is done on foot – they focus absolutely on fair chase, ethical hunting. All vehicles are in excellent running condition and completely equipped with First Aid kits, tools, two way radios, refreshments and electric winches.  The professional team of skinners does outstanding field preparation of the trophies in order to prepare them for delivery to a local freight agent or taxidermist.  All the meat from the hunt is utiliised.

Visit the local school that is supported through this family operation and the protein provided by hunters.  Your hunting meat is the sole source of protein for the school.

Bow hunters are welcome.  All hunts are spot and stalk only.  They do not allow hunting at water holes.

Lodging

The lodge is run in the classic, elegant style of traditional safari camps.  The luxurious lodge is a spacious building of natural stone with thatched roofs, designed by the owner to blend in with the surrounding rocky kopjes and vast savannahs.

The lodge offers 5 guest suites with en-suite bathrooms with basins, flushing toilets and large showers with high pressured hot and cold running water. The extra length beds are solid wood with thick, firm mattresses, down duvets and pillows. Bedside tables, reading lamps, a luggage rack, rifle cabinet, large wardrobe, comfortable chairs, a desk, ceiling fan, balcony furniture complete the elegant, distinctly safari style rooms. Two of the loft suites at the lodge feature stone fire places, and one of the suites offers in inter-leading children’s room.

Enjoy sun decks with hammocks and deck chairs, the swimming pool and summerhouse were specially designed to make the safari more enjoyable for non-hunters and children. Water holes have been strategically placed near both lodges to allow game viewing and photography from your suite and sun decks.

The hunting day usually starts just before sunrise with a choice of beverages served in your suite by a friendly camp attendant, followed by a hearty breakfast.

Dining:

They offer world-class local cuisine inspired by the owner, and expertly prepared by our Gourmet Chefs and the small, dedicated kitchen teams. Venison from the hunt is always served accompanied by a wide variety of organically grown salads, fruit, vegetables and herbs from the gardens. Fresh baked bread, biscuits and treats are baked daily in the old fashioned wood-burning oven.  Non-venison as well as vegetarian meals are prepared, with pleasure, on request.

Guests return to camp during the heat of midday for a buffet-style lunch, which is served in the thatched summerhouse area at the swimming pool.  A short siesta is followed by coffee at 15h00 before returning to the wild open veld.

Sundowners are served in the evening around the open fire pit. This is historically the time of day when the best memories of wilderness experiences, as well as hunting and fishing tales, are exchanged in the romantic flow of the Acacia wood flames.  A traditional drumbeat announces dinner, which is always a candle-lit three-course gourmet feast.

Top quality South African Wines, international brands of whiskey, gin, vodka and world-class Namibian beer as well as a variety of soft drinks and pure fruit juices are available in camp. Clients are encouraged to notify the team of any specific wishes, which will gladly be catered for.

This outfitter is the sole source of protein for extremely impoverished school nearby with about 260+ children!  The protein from your hunt provides the meat for the children.  The school is extremely well run and provides an excellent education for the children under the careful eye of an experienced educator and her staff.

Should you wish to visit the school, the principal is happy to accommodate visitors as long as the visit does not interrupt the school day.  Supplies are always in need at the school.  For ease and travel simplicity, the safari owner recommends that supplies be purchased in the Windhoek on arrival and then delivered by guests directly to the school.  Many guests list this as a highlight of their safari.

If you would like to interact with the children in an even deeper way, the school welcomes any activities that you would like to initiate.

If you would like to make a difference while on your hunting vacation, this outfitter is grateful for any help that you would like to offer to the school but there is absolutely no pressure to do so.

In 2018, the conservationist hunting community is joining together to further provide nurture, housing and sustenance for these vulnerable children in this community. Boarding homes have been built!  Hunter’s Home has been a dream of the Hunters Namibia Safaris team and that dream has come to fruition with excellent clean facilities.  The facility is built and now only needs the support of the hunting community to provide the funding for children to fill these homes.  If you would like to join in in caring for these vulnerable children that at this time live in child led homes in lean to tin huts, please donate at the following link:
