About this hunt
OUR "BIG 5 HUNTS" ARE CONDUCTED PRIMARILY ON HUGE NON-FENCED AREAS (1x1) NOTE: "Big 5" quota availability varies annually according to government and IUCN permit allocations. We were established in 2009 and situated in the northeastern part of South Africa known as the Lowveld, home to the jewel of the African Game Reserves, the iconic Kruger National Park and numerous “Big 5” privately owned parks forming the Greater Kruger National Park. We specialize in dangerous game hunting destinations in and around some of these private reserves and the Limpopo Valley with a combination of hunting options from open unfenced, to partially open and fenced areas. We offer tailor-made hunts to suit your needs and requirements. Whether you are interested in hunting elephants, Cape buffalo or pursuing the big cats, we have it all on offer along with an abundance of plains game that South Africa has to offer. The desert species that we do not have available in the Lowveld Bushveld can be hunted on our Kalahari concession. We will plan your hunt and ensure that your safari is an unforgettable one! Our total concession areas are in excess of 250,000 acres and we cater for both rifle and bowhunters. First-time visitors and seasoned hunters returning to Africa are all welcome. For the non-hunters, we are on the doorstep of the Greater Kruger National Park. Our sister company offers dedicated photographic safaris to the Kruger National Park and sightseeing trips to the scenic Blyde Canyon, the third biggest canyon in the world. Numerous other wildlife rehabilitation attractions and five-star spar treatments are among some of the most popular add-ons to this safari. We reserve the right to change any terms, conditions and prices without notice. Rates at the time of the hunt will apply.

Surpassed expectations
Knowable outfitters, they made sure we always felt safe while hunting dangerous game. The area has phenomenal amounts of wildlife. We have hunted Africa 6 times and this was by far our most enjoyable safari!
Multiple elephant. Multiple lion with company
Honesty and reliability is hard to come by in many hunts, but especially in Africa. As a hunter in Africa for over a decade This Is Africa has solidified my loyalty for anything to do with the continent
The international flight distance which has nothing to do with the company
Fantastic trip
Heinrich was an outstanding Professional Hunter. Very knowledgeable, polite, just a very good hunter. Always striving to do his best for us. My wife went along and it was a great experience.
