Greetings/First time Cape buffalo hunt

[Reza7700]

While I have hunted buffalo many times, if I were looking at hunting in South Africa, I would seriously consider @TSALA HUNTING SAFARIS and @GAME 4 AFRICA SAFARIS. These 2 outfits are first class. Tsala is a short 2 hour drive from the airport in JNB, Game 4 Africa is an additional flight from JNB over to Port Elizabeth.

If I were hunting in Zimbabwe I would consider @TSALA HUNTING SAFARIS or Dalton and York.

For both Tsala and Game 4 Africa, they both have self-sustaining herds, Tsala has some truly huge buffalo. They are close to Bela Bela so the wife and kids could do into town for shopping/spa, day trips, etc.

Having said all of this, there are many other truly find outfitters that others here have hunted with. Sorting out who to hunt with is half the fun of taking a trip!!

Good luck to you, Sir!!

Thank you!

My favorite time to hunt Africa is July early August given that is the heart of their winter. Yes Delta flies direct with Main cabin round trip ranging from $1500-$1800 per person. I have used Qatar which is a great airline by Delta direct 14.5 hours, Qatar 33.5 hours with one stop…no thanks given I am losing hunting time with Qatar for roughly similar cost to Delta direct

Agree!

Welcome to AH

If you listen to Podcasts I would recommending giving”PH Journal” a quick listen in particular episode 65. It will help give some good information as you start the search for a safari.

I added a link below, if it works
