My Dad and I are a couple months out from buffalo hunting in the eastern cape- getting pretty fired up. We are doing a couple of days in Capetown first, to beat the jet lag. The only flights I see connect through Amsterdam, is it absolutely a disaster flying through there with firearms? Been working with travel expresss, and she understands the process there regarding paperwork, etc. I’ve read some horror stories on here about arriving without firearms, don’t want to end up like that! Might go to joberg first and connect from there to Capetown… thoughts?
 
If you've got you permits ready. In other words consent from Dutch customs there will be no problem.

A good travel agency will sort this out. Enjoy
 
As DieJager said - no issues.
I flew through Amsterdam several years back. Just need to send the papers for approval at least 3 weeks in advance if memory serves.
 
Me too. Have your Permit to Transit The Netherlands with a Firearm form approved prior to departure, and you should be good to go.
 
Making me feel better! Working with travel express on paperwork
 
just do what Jennifer tells you to do, she is great and knows what she is doing, just have a great time
 
My son and I used Travel Express for a trip in and out from Joberg, I cannot say enough good things about their people on the ground there. I'm planning a Euro wild boar trip for latter in the year and will be going through Amsterdam as a connection, I'm interested to hear your experience if you end up doing that connection with your hunting rifles.
 
Relax, Travel Express can handle the proper paper work as they did for me a few years back

What everyone has said. Don’t worry Jennifer Travel Express will handle all the paperwork. Only person I use for last 6 trips and will continue to use.
 
I just got a message from Jennifer a couple hours ago, she was just checking in and give me a little info about my trip leaving next Friday. did not expect to here from her as today they are closed, great customer service!
 
Amsterdam does have some good compensations.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
