Tuskless Elephant/Buffalo
Pro Safaris
PH Marc Swanepoel
Rifa Concession

My Girlfriend and I are extremely pleased with everything about this hunt.

Louis Muller organized what will be a life event for me. A Kariba Houseboat trip got us acclimatized immediately before the hunt. Louis made arrangements for rifles, food, transport etc, that were right on the mark. Pro Safaris was very grounded and candid through all of my dealings with them.

The camp at Rifa was exactly what I was looking for. Tents really made me feel like I was hunting as opposed to staying in a hotel. Food and staff were great. We saw and approached Elephant and Buffalo every day we hunted them. Hippos feeding 10M from the tent during the night was an experience!

PH Marc Swanepoel was fantastic. He did everything possible to make my girlfriend and I comfortable. Marc went the extra mile every day by looking after small details that took this hunt to the next level. He is a wealth of knowledge in terms of wildlife, fauna and insects. He has a great sense of humour and is very passionate about Zimbabwe and hunting. His demeanour and enthusiasm throughout our safari was contagious. Marc has wonderful interpersonal skills and does his business with good character and a high level of competence. I look forward to hunting with Marc and Pro Safaris in the future.

I had the privilege of spending time with Frik Muller Sr during my stay. Prince of guy who is no doubt an ambassador for Africa hunting and Zimbabwe.

*** Edit - Just wand to give a shout out to Afton House who we stayed at 3 nights between our transits. Very accommodating in every aspect.

It was a sad walk from the truck to departures at Harare International Airport.

Congrats on great safari in one one of Zim's premier areas. I've only had a few clients with Pro but every one of them has been super happy.

The worst part of every safari.

I've known the Mullers well having hunted with them since 1988. I've also known Ramblin man a great many years and have no doubt the experience for all concerned was great. Great people came together to make a great hunt. You can't go wrong with Pro Safaris.

Condensed but fine recommendation for an outfit that I had not heard of?

Does Marc also operate in Zambia?

This trip didn't even happen unless you post photos to prove it.

Post some pics!!!!
