The mountain property boasts the largest man made lake in South Africa. They have caught fish as large as 13 pounds in this lake! Fly and spin fishing are available from the bank. Amazing Rainbow trout fishing available.

Deep sea fishing can also be arranged from the beach property.

Your tailor-made South Africa luxury hunting safari is built to cater to your hunting desires and needs. All hunting is spot and stalk in an ethical, traditional African hunting style.

You will enjoy hunting on amazing large properties ranging in size from 10,000 acres up to 15o,000 acres!  This lodge privately owns 95,000 acres.

What does “spot and stalk” mean? When the trophy you wish to hunt is spotted from a mountainside, vehicle, or on a hike, a plan is made between you and your PH (Professional Hunter) and to stalk the trophy. Wind direction is always important!  The goal is to be within 150-200 yds of the animal but sometimes a 300 yard shot is possible.

Should you have any disabilities that need to be catered to, it is absolutely a priority, and plans will be made. This outfitter is dedicated to ethical hunting and catering to the specific needs and desires of every client. No two safaris are just alike!

As you noticed in the introduction, they offer several unique lodges on several different properties. Each is exclusive to the group in camp. The properties are large and do not have interior fences. The game range freely on each property.

Safaris of 7 nights typically enjoy hunting two areas and over 8 nights may enjoy hunting three areas.

You can expect the following when we design your African safari: we will listen to your vision for your African hunting safari experience. We then begin designing your safari with lodge and destination selection, activity selection, flights, meet & greet services, travel insurance, clothing & equipment list, a countdown to Africa (this assists you with detail preparation leading up to trip time), detailed pricing with all included/not included items, and more.

As full-service African hunting safari specialists, we have visited over 110+ safari lodges in Africa over the last 30 years. We have selected only a handful of those who have met our strenuous criteria.  A combination of big game hunting, bird hunting, photo safari, Cape Town and Victoria Falls safaris are our specialty.

As with all of our African properties, private aircraft are available for transfers if you prefer.

There are several options for travel all beginning with your arrival in Johannesburg.

Option 1: We have charter planes that can take you directly to the properties  or nearby

Option 2: Fly from Johannesburg to either Port Elizabeth, East London or Bloemfontein where you will be greeted by your lodge host and transfer by road to the hunting property which will be a 2  hour scenic drive.
