2017 Cape Buffalo Special
The Cape Buffalo: a beautiful, majestic animal. Feared by many for its power and cunningness to turn the tide on even the most experienced hunter. It is also one of the most sought after trophies to hunt for during a hunting safari.
Our range of Cape Buffalo hunting packages gives hunters a true hunting adventure. This all-inclusive package offers a fully guided hunting experience, options giving hunters an added option of chosing a hunting trip that’ll suit all tastes. Hunters can choose a package that ranges from between 5 to 8 days of Cape Buffalo hunting along with a wide variety of hunting trophies included.
Hunters arrive in South Africa at O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg where we will meet up with hunters to shuttle them to the Northwest province to a 17,000-acre property that includes en-suite accommodation and much more.
The property upon which all Cape Buffalo hunts will occur is situated in the Northwest province of South Africa. It’s situated northwest of O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg. It is a flat, sandy part of South Africa.
The vegetation in the area consists of large Camel thorn trees, Shepherd trees, shrubs of Blackthorn, Raisin bush and grass that is roughly between knee to hip height.
Traveling by road is a solid 9-hours’ drive from O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, a trip that consists of beautiful views and vistas all along the way. However, if such a long traveling distance seems a bit too daunting, you can also choose to add a short domestic flight from Johannesburg to the city Kimberly. Traveling by road from Kimberly to the Northwest province will be a much shorter 4-hour drive.
The property upon which the various Cape Buffalo hunts will take place is a large 17,000-acre piece of land that sits close to the South Africa/Botswana border. The property is divided into 4 sections and the property features all of the necessary, modern day amenities along with both beautiful and comfortable en-suite accommodation available.
Each of the four packages are all truly inclusive and there are NO HIDDEN FEES and NO EXTRA COSTS involved.

In addition to the animals included in each of the packages, as well as the list of other animals that can be hunted (as listed under the Trophies tab), should a hunter want to include another specie of animal into the package (one that is NOT included on the list of available animals), then all associated costs and hunting fees will apply.
Giving hunters a variety of options, we’ve split our main Cape Buffalo package into four sub packages to give hunters a variety of game that can be hunted. Packages also have varying time frames, and hunters can choose a hunting adventure between 5 and 8 days.
