Hi all,
I've just booked my second African safari, after having had a great hunt in Namibia with Kowas last May. This time we are headed to the East Cape with Marius from KMG in early July 2018. On my list is Nyala, Bushbuck, Eland, Zebra and Blesbok. But of course, we'll be flexible and take what Africa offers!
I will be hunting for seven days and then touring for 2-3 weeks with my wife and two early-teen daughters. We intend to see Cape Town, Vic Falls and Sun City to relax at the end. I'd welcome any other suggestions on places that are a 'must-do' with a family group or that the girls in particular might enjoy.
Also, I much prefer to hunt with my own rifles normally, but given the touring and border crossings this may be difficult this time around. (Pity, as I have an old Sako .375 H&H that I'd love to take Eland with!) Is rifle storage of some type possible and has anyone done this while over there?
Cheers all, it's an exciting time!
