About Us
Who we are and what we do.
Who We Are
At Double Gun Safaris, we are a family deeply rooted in the tradition and passion of African hunting.
Located in the scenic expanse of the Northern Cape, our family-owned property stretches across 18,000 acres of diverse landscapes, from the lush banks of the Orange River extending over 25 kilometres, to the rugged beauty of the African bush.
Our specialty and passion lie in buffalo hunting with double rifles at close range, offering an intimate and thrilling experience that connects our clients with the wild heart of Africa.
