A long-held, shared dream was this safari of two German hunting friends from Central Hesse, Germany. Planned and prepared many months in advance, the experienced hunters traveled to us on the east coast of South Africa in November 25 to embark on their joint hunting adventure for Cape buffalo and plains game.
They planned to hunt with their own weapons, so we assisted with the import and customs regulations and organized safe transportation. The weather was kind to us, and over the 9 hunting days, we managed to achieve an impressive hunt – the two will have plenty to talk about for a long time and are already planning their next visit!
Following the recommendation of hunting friends, we contacted Anja to learn more about her private hunting in South Africa. Anja invited us to visit her booth at the Jagd & Hund trade fair in 2023, and we liked her idea of sustainable, ethical hunting in South Africa so much that we decided to go for it and booked a family safari on NGIRI for September 2024.
We were not disappointed – our week on NGIRI was an adventure just the way we wanted it. An enormous game population with exceptional diversity met excellent cuisine and wonderful hospitality. The hunting success was also impressive, and we ended up with a massive lynx (hunted with a pack of dogs), an abnormal nyala bull, a bushbuck, and a steenbok. The trip concluded with a deep-sea fishing trip in Port Elizabeth before we unfortunately had to head home.
Thanks to Anja and her team for a fantastic time and wonderful hospitality; we felt completely at home!
