Where is better??

[norfolk shooter]

Hi guys it would be my first time in Africa and was just thinking where to go? Namibia or South Africa?? Im sure there are pros and cons for both. the outfitter I found in Namibia has an area in the caprivi and that i must say in pulling at my strings. That along with the possibility of some fishing on the Okavango its sounding good. Any thoughts would be super

Caprivi for me mate!

That would be a great trip...

I am sure you are checking things out prior to booking.

May I ask who you are looking to book with?

It's all about what you'd like, both can and will be awesom me.

My best always

I met the owner and PH yesterday and had a good chat with him and past clients of his. A very nice chap from what I can see http://www.engelbrechtsafaris.com/index.html

. . . sounds like you may have already made up your mind.

Not entirely but out of the 3 guys I saw he seemed to be the type of chap I could go with

I would recommend Omalanga Safaris from Namibia with PH Gunter Schwalm.

great places in both countries , but i do like the look of the caprivi after driving through there a couple of times. there are some nice lodges on the river there, and if you have the extra time and can get some fishing in as well i would head there myself.

I agree with Spike.t

If you want to go on a relaxing and casually enjoyable vacation type hunt, especially with a companion who is not as into an intense hunt. And if you want to combine more side trips. Or if you want have a gentle intro to Africa... I think it is hard to beat RSA.

However if you want to hunt (and fish) intensely and especially if you are ready for real big and even dangerous game... The Caprivi might be hard to beat! If your an experienced hunter, why not go for it and check out that outfitters options for an elephant?! Unless your certain you can get back for that later...
