We are so thrilled that the world is slowly, but surely opening up. After so many months of limited international travel, it is a breath of fresh air to be able to plan hunting, fishing, wingshooting, and photo safari vacations that our clients have been dreaming about! 

The world is nearly at your fingertips, so where should you go? Here are a few of our recommendations:

Africa: Our various lodges throughout South Africa, Namibia, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana offer plains game hunting, dangerous game hunting, wingshooting, and photo safaris. Africa is the ultimate vacation for families as it provides something for everyone to enjoy – outdoorsmen/women and spectators alike!  There are numerous non-hunting activities available throughout Africa.

Argentina: The latest excitement to sweep our office has been the opening of Argentina!

A wingshooting trip here is unmatched. With options for mixed bag wingshooting or a high volume dove hunting trips, our luxurious lodges will take care of everyone in your group with the utmost care. If you want to see thousands of Dove overhead, this is your destination!

We also offer trips to fantastic big game hunting lodges which feature Red Stag, Axis, Blackbuck, Fallow, Mouflon, Pere David’s Deer, and Wild Boar. These lodges mix their hunting expertise with the traditional touring culture of the country beautifully. 

As Argentina has been closed for so long, many of our lodges are booking their calendars out quicker than usual. Several of our lodges are close to filling their 2023 seasons already. Now is the time to start planning if Argentina is a vacation you are wanting to go on in the next three years!

Spain: Enjoy the beauty and rich culture of this country while visiting our big game hunting and traditional wingshooting lodges. Along with your outdoor adventure, you can add in touring of the country’s most beautiful cities and landscapes.
