I recently had the privilege of embarking on my third hunting expedition with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris, and once again, they have managed to exceed all expectations, solidifying their place as my go-to destination for an unparalleled hunting experience. From the moment I stepped onto the lodge grounds, the familiar warm welcome and genuine enthusiasm from the staff and guides made me feel like an old friend returning to a cherished retreat. The consistency in their commitment to excellence over the course of three trips is a testament to the high standards and unwavering dedication that Eastcape & Karoo Safaris upholds.

Thank you for some fantastic days of hunting on the Eastern Cape. I am sitting here back in Denmark looking on the photos of the beautiful trophies, and thinking of the great stalks we had. Also regards from my 2 daughters Emilie and Frederikke, both very proud of their trophies. Emilie´s first Busch Buck and Frederikke´s first Impala. Also Jakob, my son, had a great time and he cannot wait to go back to South Africa.

I have hunted in Africa 9 times in four countries. My first hunt in South Africa was with Eastcape & karoo Safaris. It was a family trip with my wife and two children. We had a great experience and a family vacation that won’t be forgotten. Ashley was very accommodating to the needs of the family as well as being a skilled professional hunter.

Those days I spent in South Afrika hunting with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris will be unforgetable for me and all of my family. Ashley’s incredible attentions and wonderful hospitality with all of us and his perfect knowledge and hunting abilities make him one of the most desirable people as a hunting partner. After this adventure, I realise that Eastcape & Karoo Safaris is a exceptional outfit and also we made a great friend

I have hunted with Eastcape & Karoo several times and always enjoy the hunts very much because of their knowledge of where to hunt for specific animals and their ability to hunt them properly. On the last hunt I brought my two older grandchildren who had not hunted big game before. They were able to collect the animals they wanted, and Ashley was very patient with them and did a great job in teaching them the correct method of hunting. We have great trophies from our hunts, and we are looking forward to hunting with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris again.

I hunted with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris in April and it was a great experience. They managed the whole PH-team very well and gave me much more than I expected. Ashley brought the words patience, silence and sight into a new dimension to me and with his skill, experience, foresight and good behaviour he gave both me and my fellow hunters a splendid hunting-experience and a damn good reason to go back to South-Africa as soon as possible.

I've hunted all over the United States and the world and been fortunate to hunt with many top notch outfits and PH’s. Without a doubt you guys go to the top of the list. Not only were you very professional & capable, you contributed to making your time with you very enjoyable. I’m already looking forward to my next trip to Africa with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris.

I wanted to take a minute and thank you for the wonderful experience that Brandy and I had in coming to Africa and spending ten days hunting with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris. This was truly a great and memorable experience. I have hunted all of my life, and always felt that I was fairly skilled at it. However, after hunting with you, I realized that I still have a lot to learn. I was amazed at your ability to find and stalk the game that we hunted. You almost always put me in a situation where I was able to make a good clean shot, without being rushed.

Like many Americans, I’d seen and loved the film “Into Africa,” but never imagined I’d see it or hunt there one day. When my partner asked if I’d like to accompany him on an African safari, I immediately said “Yes.” Although I’d never handled a rifle or hunted before, I asked him if I could try hunting too… and he immediately said “Yes!” After checking out dozens of South African Outfitter's websites and communicating with several, we settled on Eastcape & Karoo Safaris—a real stroke of luck, as it turned out!

I used Eastcape & Karoo Safaris for a seven day safari and a nine day safari in 2 years in a row. Thanks to their professional knowledge and skills I was able to acquire all six animals planned for each year. Ashley was not only good at tracking and finding specific animals, but provided some useful hunting and shooting tips that I have subsequently put to good use. He was always well organized, appropriately equipped and managed his hunting staff well.

I have hunted with Eastcape and Karoo Safaris three time and each safari has better than the last! I always feel like I just had the hunt of a lifetime only to have it better the next. I have taken numerous trophies that scored high in the SCI record book and have never been disappointed with the quality of the hunt or the animals that we hunted. The accommodations, transport and food have always been top notch. The best part is having made lifelong memories and friendships with Ashley and Dale and always looking forward to the next safari!

In the last 10 years, I hunted on several occasions for plains game and buffalo with East Cape &Karoo Safaris. When I hunted with Ashley and Dale, I enjoyed every moment of the hunting in wonderful hunting areas which host excellent quality game. The same experiences we had with my friends and clients from Hungary, Romania, USA, Italy. All of us enjoyed the whole ambiance, the hunting in a very professional and ethical way, the luxurious accommodation, tasty food, the friendship we made with our guides/outfitters. We can hardly wait to go back and hunt again with them as soon as possible.

My experience with Eastcape & Karoo Safaris has been excellent. I have hunted several times with Dale and Ashley and things could not have gone better. The hunting areas are magnificent and have very good trophies. Both Dale and Ashley are extremely experienced professionals who have always treated us with care and friendship. The staff, lodges and facilities are very good and everyone tries to make you feel like home. A clear “no brainer” if you want a nice safari in SA.

In 2018 I won the annual competition organized by Karoo Safaris. It was for the first time when I hunt in Africa. I hope and I want to hunt again with Dale and Ashley. When I talk with my friends about that safari, I always say “a part of my hard remains in Africa…’ It was not only a good experience but amazing experience! Dale is great person and a very experienced PH. I wait to return soon! P.S. The food was unbelievable! Thanks Dale for a great experience!!!

Good morning lovely readers. Here is my report for the hunt we had with Eastcape & Karoo safaris. As a PH and outfitter in Europe, I’m not an easy client, but have to say that after having several problems with airlines (cancellations, changes…) those guys, specially Dale Cunningham were really resolutive re organising the safari and make us to live a wonderful experience. Good quality on the animals and the organisation and the food from Niki was beautiful! The lodge was beautiful and peaceful, the BBQ area is superb and inside a great corner by the light that you shouldn’t miss when you go. Looking forward to go back!!
