Tholo Safaris Botswana Group Hunt 2020- new dates -June
Hi All,

As many know, I have done group trips to Tholo Safaris for 3 of the past 4 years. They have really produced some incredible animals, and I have spots booked for two groups in 2020 during the kudu rut. We had a number of 58-64" kudu taken this year, a 60" and 64" being the largest. You can also see my recent report from the past trip at

Tholo Hunt Report








I have an 8 day hunt booked at Tholo on the home property June 17-26 and an 8 day hunt booked at the sister property Bokomoso on June 22-July 1.

8 Day Package: includes 9 nights/8 hunting days and trophy fees for eland, kudu, gemsbok, zebra, blue wildebeest, impala, jackal

2x1 8- Day package will be $7950 per hunter.
Vat to add is $360.

Rifle use is free - you pay actual cost on ammo shot.
Rifle permits are currently $160 if you bring your own.
Ground transport is also excluded. In the groups it has run about $150/person as we split the charges. That can vary with group size.

Tim may I compliment you/Tholo on this policy. Times are changing, and not traveling with firearms makes a lot of sense for many people, especially if touring before/after the hunting. But a quality rifle/scope is a necessary component, just like the Cruiser...

Agree Bill. Tholo bought a battery of different caliber Bkasers and topped all with leupold scooes 2 years ago. Everything from .308 and 30-06 to .416.

I'll be anxious to hear how your hunt goes. Tholo looks like one a guy has got to do at least once.

May be you should ask them to offer proper rifles for hunting, not bloody Blasers!

I really dislike that silly action!

And I do not like any of the other German contraptions that have straight pulls or moving actions etc.

A turn bolt is what I like!

And right now Sako is the only European rifle maker that makes decent rifles.

Saeed,

do you not consider bolt rifles from Rigby, Westley Richards, Holland & Holland, Sauer, Mauser M03, M98 and such to be honest and proper European hunting rifles ???

Saeed,

Just Sako ? Not Mauser M03 - M98, Sauer 202 - 404, Rigby, HH or Westley Richards ?

I'm not interested in this package, but I am interested in hunting Mozambique at some time for free range cape buffalo. Where do hunters fly into to be picked up?
