    Wheelchair hunter trying to find the best fit for 1st African hunt?

    Take a look at Jan Oelofse Safaris in Namibia. I hunted there in 2021 as a paraplegic in a wheelchair full time. I won the Safari Club International Foundation pathfinder award. Highly recommend this place.

    Namibia or elsewhere? 2024

    Oelofse Safaris is solid. Excellent accommodations when I hunted there in 2021. Staff, food and trophies were fabulous as well. They have a private school on their property. Annette also has a family member that is a doctor so I’m sure they could connect you to a clinic as well.

    From Ohio, on wheels!

    Greetings from Ohio. My love for Africa truly began when I was awarded the Safari Club International Pathfinder award in 2019, and subsequently hunted with Oelofse Hunting Safaris in late 2021. I use a wheelchair full-time, and was most apprehensive but now I’m hooked and sure hope to return...

    African Safari With Limited Mobility

    I’m a full time wheelchair user that can’t walk or stand, and I hunted with the Oelofses in 2021. HIGHLY recommend this organization for any limited mobility hunter. I’m quite confident they will take excellent care of you all, and you will have many opportunities at trophies.
