    Plains Game Hunting in Africa

    Plains game safaris are the foundation of most Africa hunting trips. They offer variety, accessibility, and excellent value.

    Species Highlights

    • Kudu – Known as the “grey ghost” for its elusiveness.

    • Impala & Springbok – Classic entry-level trophies.

    • Eland & Gemsbok – Massive antelope providing both trophy and meat value.

    • Sable & Roan – Prestigious plains game species with dramatic horns.

    Why Plains Game Hunts Appeal:

    • Affordable packages for first-time African hunters.

    • High species diversity across a single trip.

    • Excellent practice and stalking opportunities before pursuing dangerous game.

    Big Five Hunting in Africa

    For those seeking the most prestigious safari trophies, Big Five hunts remain the ultimate goal.

    Big Five Species

    • Cape Buffalo – Known as “The Black Death” for its power and unpredictability.

    • Lion – The King of Beasts, a bucket-list trophy for many hunters.

    • Leopard – Elusive, stealthy, and mentally demanding.

    • Elephant – The largest land animal, hunted under strict quotas.

    • Rhinoceros – Hunted only under limited, tightly controlled conditions.

    Why Big Five Hunts Stand Out:

    • Represent the highest achievement in African hunting.
    • Demand top-level outfitters, safety measures, and preparation.
    • Deliver unmatched adrenaline and lifelong prestige.
