Hunting in Namibia. Why Choose Namibia For Your Hunt?
Some of the largest and best managed game and trophy hunting ranches in
Africa are to be found in Namibia, so before we proceed any further
please be advised that should you be looking for any form of 'Canned
Hunting' then you're at the wrong site and the wrong country.

the Illegal occupation of Namibia by South Africa along with the
armed liberation struggle by the People's Liberation Army of Namibia
(PLAN) made Namibia a no-go area for most overseas based hunters

Independence on 21 March 1990. Virtually unknown to the outside
world, a vast land of some 824.269 sq km in size having a population
of less than 1,8 million people along with some of Southern Africa's
pristine quality game animals was now made accessible to the
international community.
