Hunting tranquility

As a South African resident having been on many hunting excursions I have experienced them all - from rough-and-tumble to highly organised outfits. My experience at Rust De Winter Safaris was one of the best, if not the best I have ever had. Their options from self-catering to fully catered provides for all the possible needs of the hunter combined with ample opportunities in the field to find the trophy you came for. I will most likely return for the experience in many years to come.

Having to leave.

Excellent hunting facilities, accommodation, staff, quality of game and processing facilities. Excellent guidance from the professional hunters. Accessibility of the farm.

Once in a Lifetime Kudu Hunt

I really like how friendly the staff was and how accommodating they were. There was a very big variety of different game in very excellent condition. Kudu was on my hunting bucket list, and they surpassed all my expectations by guiding me to a great trophy that is a representative of the species. I absolutely cannot wait for my next hunting trip there. would 100% recommend.

Successful Macnab Challenge

The trip immediately started with a catered pickup from the Johannesburg airport, followed by a relaxing drive to a reserve containing breathtaking animals. To say the Big 5 would be an understatement. Following the conclusion, my arrival at the lodge included a welcoming owner, operator, PH, and chef who began explaining the festivities planned for the hunt in the morning. The bonfire, dinner and dessert were delicious (including Kudu game meat). The lodge included my own private kitchen, living room, and clean bedroom. The morning started with a rifle warmup session for acclimating to the top-of-the-line equipment provided and the hunt began. The reserve size was expansive, with 4-wheel transportation everywhere to prevent becoming tired throughout the long and fun day ahead! The macnab challenge included a Guineafowl, Impala, and Bass in the agenda. Guineafowl run quickly and aren’t the largest birds, but the PH and operator ensured we found a suitable location with Guineafowl for action, crossing the Guineafowl off my list. The impala hunting was amazing. Many bucks and herds running and grazing across the land. It was a challenging time throughout the midday as the heat kicked in. We paused for a fantastic brunch ant the lodge, and fished for several hours in a local lake then private Eco-friendly (owned by Rust De Winters) resort that had large mouth bass swimming in the river alongside. An exhilarating catch was in-store and resulted in checking the bass off my list. The owner mentioned that transitioning to a blesbok instead of an impala was an option as the day progressed for more exciting options! Lo and behold, my PH identified a grazing heaven with Blesbok. My operator advised me which animals were fair game, and we setup in the truck. Despite the brush, a visible shot was apparent which concluded the day. We celebrated with another sunset safari to see giraffes and zebras, followed by another excellent meal. I cannot wait to come back, as this was an experience I will NEVER forget. Thank you, Rust De Winters!

The owner, operator, and PH made sure my stay was terrific.

The most amazing honeymoon

Everything was top class. From the hunting to the accommodations, food and overall experience. We will no doubt be back for even longer than a week next time, it is a truly remarkable property with so much to access.

Nothing, everything was amazing

Very nice place to hunt.

Accommodations are excellent! The food served is very good and I considered it gourmet quality. Very nice, comfortable hunting vehicles. Plenty of game running around with some good trophy animals in the mix. Lots of things to do in the area for non hunters. Overall a very good hunt.

Property is a bit small, but still challenging to get the bigger trophy animals.

Interesting Experience

This was a unique experience for me. Upon my arrival I was greeted warmly by Rust De Winter's family. My stay was lovely in an amazing property. And most importantly, from A to Z it was all communicated clearly by my guide Wian a professional hunter, safety and weapon selection, tracking, identifying critical points and a lot more. I will most likely visit again to refresh the experience. I definitely recommend this!
