When you’re planning your best african hunting safari it is important to choose a outfitter that is reputable and will give you a good deal. Many outfitters are at the hunt show and conventions throughout the country where you can meet them, discuss their services and ask for references of hunters they have worked with in the past. It is also a good idea to go with an all-inclusive hunting package. These are typically cheaper than custom made safaris. The packages include everything from your trophy tags to your accommodations, to-and-from airport transfers, tracking and taxidermy delivery.

Whether you’re a spot-and-stalk bowhunter or prefer to sit in a ground blind, the experienced African PHs will be able to help you succeed. Some have even had archery clients shoot cape buffalo, which is one of the hardest big game animals to kill with a bow.
Clothing
If you’re going to be in a warm area like Namibia it is a good idea to bring long pants. The flora there is thick, dry and thorny so long pants will provide the extra protection you’ll need. The boots you bring should be breathable and have soft soles to minimize the noise they make on the dry African twigs. Most PHs will suggest “vellies” or Courteney Boots, but any hunting boots with soft soles will do the trick.
Once your safari is over it’s a good idea to stay in Victoria Falls and enjoy the many activities this spectacular city has to offer including elephant rides, walking with lions, curio shopping and sunset cruises on the Zambezi while viewing crocodile and hippo. It is a great place to relax after the stress and excitement of your african hunting trip.
