From the Outfitter

First of all, I wish to thank you for reading this and your interest towards our safari operation. We were blessed with another fantastic 2024 season as we now celebrating 34 years in the safari industry.

One of my personal goals and dream was to offer large safari areas in South Africa. Our main concession, 56 000 acres Manketti Wilderness Area has been part of our portfolio for the past 3 years and we just extended our agreement with another 3 years. So it’s only getting better. We are also busy with adding another large Big-5 hunting area to our concession and hope to share that exciting detail soon…

The feedback from our clients are all in agreement that we are offering real hunting and real Africa. The excitement of the unknown and fair chase of the hunt on Manketti made it special and for sure next level. This added new excitement and energy, especially to our return 90% clientele.

We had many highlights and build new memories with our amazing loyal clients and are very thankful to each client that chose and trusted Quagga Safaris with their safari dreams. Without clients we cannot live our dream as this is not a job, but a lifestyle to us.

To the professional and dedicated team (with more than 200 years of combined experience) that joined in on the Manketti challenge and made it one of our best years ever, I wish to salute and congratulate them and thank them for all the extra miles and effort to make sure that every client only received the best time of their lives.

We as a team are looking forward to host you back in 2025 and offering Quagga Safaris as the leading safari company in South-Africa.

May God Bless us all and be with us through a new and exciting season ahead of us.

See you around the Quagga campfire under African skies

About Quagga Safaris

Hunting should be an experience and not without putting in hours, miles, sweat and patience. This is what our hunting on Manketti Game Reserve is all about. The feedback from our clients is that the hunting experience we offer is real hunting, real Africa and all about the challenge that ends up in rewards and satisfaction.

The Manketti hunting experience is not traditional “ranch hunting” as known in South Africa. It’s the unknown, wilderness side of hunting on this 56 000 acre area that simply puts the hunting in a class of its own. The area ranges from thick brush country to open savannah areas, therefore hosting a wide variety of species. This keeps the hunting and approaching of different species exciting and interesting.

Our hunting season is open all year round but suggested months are March – October due to weather that is comfortable with little or no rain. Apart from the quality hunting we consider the field preparation and handling of your trophies as priority. Our highly qualified team of skinners, capers, will take extreme care of this up to handing it over to Trophy Solutions Africa that has been handling our dip/pack/taxidermy work for over 15 years. Shipping of your trophies will be done in record time to the client or taxidermy of own choice.

The hunting team are true professionals and the excitement of the hunt will reflect from them. We invite all hunters, whether novice, experienced, rifle or bow hunter. Our team has a vast hunting experience of plains game and dangerous game hunting. All our hunting is done ethically and will be a fair chase. Our hunting is done mainly by walking and stalking or driving and spotting tracks of wildlife to cover more are in every hunting day.

We will respect and handle every client according to his own ability.

We are offering a wide variety of species that naturally occur on our hunting areas and we believe it’s 90% about the hunt and experience.

Hunting the best available is not optional, it’s what we offer and do and is reflected on our reputation of the quality game we offer and hunt every season.
