Threeways Safaris, Zimbabwe
The principal attractions in Zimbabwe, besides its renowned hospitality and great hunting, are the plentiful Cape Buffalo, Elephant and Leopard which can be taken for a reasonable fee, along with some magnificent plains game.
Threeways Safaris offers genuine, “fair chase” hunting and has been conducting successful hunts in Southern Africa for more than twenty years. A wide selection of African game is offered in an area that comprises grassland to thick Mopani Woodland. The game is free ranging and includes a good variety for the trophy hunter to choose from. The hunting base is Tokkie van der Merwe’s 9,000 acre, private ranch in the Lowveld of Southern Zimbabwe. The rustic, thatched camp is set in the dense riverine forest on the banks of the Bubye River.
Tokkie is well known in hunting circles having been honored as SCI Houston’s 2007 Safari Operator of The Year & SCI Georgia’s 2009 Outfitter of The Year!
Tokkie has recently entered into a Joint Venture with Rassie Erasmus of Rasland African Ventures. Rassie will be responsible for marketing and managing all safari operations.
Threeways Safaris primarily hunts dangerous game in the Beitbridge East Campfire Area Concession; an area of 1,700,000 acres, where a new tented camp is being constructed. This vast area stretches eastwards along the Limpopo River up to the confluence of the Bubye River. Part of this concession has a common, open boundary with the Kruger National Park which positively contributes to trophy size, averaging 40” for Buffalo & 50 pounds for Elephant! Climatically the optimal hunting months are April to October.
Hunts are tailored to accommodate a client’s desired choice of trophies. This choice determines the Port of Entry with both Harare International in Zimbabwe’s capital or Gateway International in Polokwane, northern South Africa utilized. After your safari, trophies are delivered to Trophy Consultants International (www.tci.co.zw), Bulawayo for dipping, packing and shipment.
On all trips to Africa an anti-malarial course is recommended. For the correct prophylactic treatment please consult your GP or the CDC.
Please Note: Use of military camouflage clothing on safari is unlawful!
