More about us

Our company was established in 2015 and operates in 2 territories.

When two like minded individuals with similar ambitious ideas cross paths, it is only inevitable that something great should come from it. Combining their passions for the outdoors, people and hunting, Michael and Dempsey have formed a company that focuses not only on the hunt, but also the experience given to each client. Many years down the road we continue to proudly deliver that excellent service time and time again.
With access to some of South Africa's top hunting areas we have been able to deliver unmatched trophy quality year in and year out. If not being guided by Michael or Dempsey, we have world class guides that have been carefully selected and vetted by us to ensure that you, the client, have the best possible experience and also ensure a successful and memorable safari.
Due to our rich German hunting heritage which stems from Michael’s ties to Germany we have enjoyed a hugely eclectic group of clients from around the world. If you can name a hunting nation, the likelihood is that we have guided someone from there! Typically we attend a number of hunting trade shows from January to February every year and it's always a pleasure to meet up with old and prospective clients alike.
At Bayly Sippel hunting Safaris, we pride ourselves on offering more than just the standard safari experience, we make your hunting safari an experience of a lifetime.
Our Safaris are led by experienced, passionate professional hunters and trackers who conduct themselves to the highest standard at all times.
With a wide array of species, world class accommodation, expert guidance and support, enjoy the hunting trip of a lifetime in Africa with peace of mind!

About this hunt

We cannot believe the 2024 season is over already - it seemed to fly by in a flash! A huge thank you must be said for the tremendous support from the BYH community - you guys were all an absolute pleasure to host. We hope everyone is doing well and enjoying reminiscing about all the wonderful adventures you hopefully embarked on this year. If not then hopefully you are busy planning your next one! We had a wonderful season seeing old clients again and new clients for the first time! We believe that Africa is for everyone and should be enjoyed by all! It is for that reason we have created this varied list of safari, ranging from smaller and more affordable safari's to some of the bigger more expansive safari's. This package we have on offer are for both those looking to have their first trip over or those who wish to hunt a few more of our more iconic species! Most of these plains game hunts don't break the bank whilst still allowing the hunter to be able to hunt some of our more iconic species! These hunts are great fun as you don't have to hunt a reduced number of days thus allowing you to take your time with the hunt and focus on getting some stunning trophies as well as enjoying the whole experience! Another advantage is that you are able to add any species you like to this hunt whilst in South Africa. You are not restricted to just the listed species of the package. We also have no size restrictions on our trophies we hunt with our clients. We understand what it is like coming on your first safari and we do everything in our power to ensure that the trip lives up to all your expectations. These hunts are available to both bow and rifle hunters. We will personally receive you at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg and you will be with us the entire time until we drop you off at the airport at the conclusion of your safari. This way you can rest assured that everything will go smoothly.
