I used search and found some posts about sightseeing trips on Rovos.
Curious if anyone has done the wingshooting trip? I've seen a couple of videos and it looks like a very cool trip.

Looks like it could be a great time
 
I've never been but watched a Cabelas Under Wild Skies episode where Tony Makris did a whole safari from the Rovos Rail. Now thats a dream come true.
 
It was a great episode. I've been to the Rovos Rail website several times. I think they do the wingshooting trip once a year.
 
Here is the you tube video with Makris

 
Yep, that's the one I saw, looks like a great time! Just sent their Broker a message.

Just looks like a cool add on to a PG hunt.

RiverGod looks pretty good too!
 
Looks like Tony was knocking them down. That Warhog was hauling the mail.
 
I had a quote from them probably 8-10 years ago. From memory it was a bit over $30K per gun for the 8 day shoot.
 
I was in Atlanta checking rifles back into US and the gentleman in front of me had just returned from rail trip with Makris. He said it was fantastic!!!

Here's a photo of Tony receiving that Shaw & Hunter award at the 1970 annual EAPHA Dinner Dance. Tony Dyer, then EAPHA President and Princess (Sunny) von Auersperg presented it. I also attended the event.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ
