Pioneer Safaris is a leading, family-owned, African hunting company. We are a Gold Certified Outfitter, and life members of SCI & PHASA. Pioneer operates mainly from our two privately owned hunting estates in South Africa, and for the very adventurous offer Safaris at our Kalahari Desert & Mozambican Forest concessions.
We offer hunting opportunities on over 45 African species which include plains game (Eland, Kudu, Nyala, Impala, Sable, etc.), the dangerous seven (Lion, Elephant, Hippo, Crocodile, etc.) and have a specialized concession just 5km’s from our front gate for the colour variants & various slams.
Whichever area a hunter wishes to hunt, or no matter the species you had in mind, Pioneer has been providing it to our clients for years.
We see Bow Hunting as a unique & specialized form of Hunting. That is why we’ve teamed up with Africa’s leading bow specialists to create the ultimate experience.
With Pioneer Safaris you hunt ethically, fair, mature specimens in a manner which will leave you exhilarated, yet relaxed. We always aim to get you the best trophy on offer in a specific area, but this does not take precedence over our responsibility to hunt old, mature animals. Most of the animals we hunt are old bulls & rams with excellent character, which naturally correlates to exceptional trophies with impressive measurements and features.
Pioneer Safaris is a family-owned operation which not only guarantees attention to detail, but also flexibility when it comes to matching a client’s expectations. This allows us to offer plains game, dangerous game, and specialized game species at either of our two exclusive hunting estates, or any of our other hunting concessions. It is all about what you as a hunter want.
Pioneer Safaris is a valued Safari Club International Life Member, and a Hunt Africa Gold Certified Outfitter.
