Hello,

I bid/won a trip with Dubula Safaris outside Port Elizabeth At a white tails unlimited event. First trip to Africa? I have talked with them and they sound like very nice people. Anyone have and experience with them?


I was considering booking my own travel. It would be from Newark , NJ direct JNB.. and then a seperate ticket the next morning on Airlink. I have done some reading bout a possible large weapons charge if there are two separate tickets booked ? Has anyone else booked a trip like this recently?, any suggestions?

Are there any other airlines that transport fire affront JNB- PLZ?

Thank you

Hi
I saw 2 Dubula trucks at Huntershill Safari when I was their in 2017. So for sure they hunt other areas/concessions besides their own. I was their just to hunt Eland with another outfitter who used Huntershill because he did not have Eland on his home property. I would ask them to send you 5 references from USA that hunted the 2019 season. From the clients you will know how they operate. Normally I book my own airfare but with all the Cancellations I had Travel Express book it. I am using Airlink as I used them in 2019 on multiple safaris in South Africa in 2019. JNB to PE and JNB to Kimberly. I had a two gun case and was hit with overages like 50 bucks on each flight back and forth. Stay with them their reliable. A member just posted a hunt with current oversized gun case costs on Airlink from his hunt a month ago. Airlink does require you to notify them 3 days in advance when traveling with guns. I’m hunting in Tanzania before I head to PE for plains game thus using Jennifer at Travel Express so I don’t have any problems. I would definitely go to Addo Elephant Park one day. After you talk to references PM me as this will be my fourth Safari to East Cape with 4 different outfitters. I used African wildlife Artistry in Somerset East -Rudy andCaroline - on my first trip there in 2013 and the last 3 also 16,17,19, and will use them again this year as I know I will get my trophies home 100% sure! Every outfitter will have a different one. Bowker Safaris uses them and they are one of the oldest Safari operators in East Cape!! I used Henry’s agent a lady-riflepermits- to help clear my gun on last trip in 19 for the first time. $60 bucks when they meet you their on arrival date. Probably worth it for you as a first timer. I wouldn’t get an advanced permit. If no one in line your out in 15 minutes. PM me if you like and I’ll send you my phone as it’s easier and I can tell what I know Hotels,shops Etc.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
