More about us
Our company was established in 1994 and operates in 6 territories.
- “Safari” is certainly the most well known Swahili word in the world. It means « journey / travel », but before all, it symbolizes the vast african plains, the adventure and the big african game.
- We tailor to become the emblem under which your most beautiful african adventures and expeditions would be organized and guided. Our team of bush guides will introduce you to mother Africa from the Cape of Good Hope to the Masai steppes with the greatest passion. Panoramic scenery and wildlife are our speciality!

About this hunt
April / May are best for Bongo. If forest Sitatunga is on top of your list, then February / March right at the beginning of the season is best. This is also a very good time for Dwarf Buffalo. You will be hunting with your dedicated PH and his team of trackers and gun bearers, and will be using a hunting vehicle to move in within the area. Usual way to hunt is to walk or drive around looking for a fresh track, and to follow it up on foot until we find the specimen hunted that day. Sometime the animal can be also spotted and stalked. Allowing one BONGO + one additional primary specie + 4 secondary species. The length of this safari may be adjusted upon guest’s flight schedule

Where you will stay
Hunting Camp
Rain forest is called that name for a good reason, it does rain a lot, but often at night which helps a lot to get fresh tracks and animal movement. The rain is excellent for hunting in the forest. We have a very comfortable camp in the forest. This is important to have a very comfortable camp in this hostile environment, allowing to “recharge your batteries” at night so to enjoy the next day to it’s fullest.

I meet this outfitter just short of 20 years ago. We have hunted every year ever since, sometimes twice a year. I have hunted with them in South Africa, Mozambique, Cameroon and Tanzania with always great pleasure and success.
Always very personalized services. Although Ihave always only hunted with CHRISTOPHE, I have met some of his PH and found them very professional. I would recommend any of them.
My stays are always too short...
Grand time with Great Friend
The Safari was well organized, with no surprises, game quality was very good, accommodations and food were excellent, and PHs were hard working and knowledgeable. Usually send skins back to the US for taxidermy but they had excellent taxidermy company and quality was first rate.
Hunting was fair chase but as is typical in South Africa properties are fenced. You have to decide what properties are large enough for your hunting philosophy. Did hunt buffalo in an area fenced on one side only and otherwise open for several hundred miles.
Lifelong friends is what hunting is about!!!
Beautiful country and lifetime memories. Great game and sporting hunting opportunities. I had so much fun I went back the next year and will go back soon.
I didnt like leaving!!!!!
