  • Do I need any vaccinations before traveling to Southern Africa?
    Vaccinations are not required for travellers arriving from Europe, the United Kingdom, or the United States. However, it is recommended to be up to date with routine vaccinations such as tetanus, hepatitis A, and typhoid. If you are arriving from or transiting through a yellow fever risk country, you may be asked to present a valid yellow fever vaccination certificate on arrival. Some areas in Southern Africa do carry a risk of malaria, particularly during the rainy season. Your booking agent will inform you if your itinerary includes time in a malaria-prone region, and whether malaria prophylaxis is advised. For peace of mind, we recommend consulting a travel clinic or GP at least 4 to 6 weeks before departure for guidance tailored to your trip.
  • Can I go on safari in a malaria-free area?
    Yes, absolutely. There are several excellent safari destinations in Southern Africa that are completely malaria-free, offering peace of mind for travellers who prefer not to take malaria medication. Areas such as the Eastern Cape in South Africa, the Waterberg region, and parts of the Western Cape offer incredible wildlife experiences without the need for prophylaxis. At Trophy Hunters Africa, we can customise your itinerary to focus entirely on malaria-free regions while still delivering unforgettable encounters with the Big Five and other iconic wildlife. Your booking agent will be happy to guide you through the best options based on your preferences and any health considerations.
  • Why do you Hunt animals?
    At Trophy Hunters Africa, hunting is never about sport or indiscriminate killing. It is a carefully managed conservation tool that supports the long-term health of wildlife populations and their habitats. All hunts are planned with input from professional conservation experts and are carried out under strict regulation to ensure they benefit the ecosystem. Selective hunting targets older, non-breeding animals that no longer contribute to the population’s growth. This approach helps maintain a healthy balance within herds, prevents overgrazing, and funds essential conservation work. Revenue from ethical hunting directly supports local communities, anti-poaching units, and land preservation, making it a vital part of sustainable wildlife management. We recognise that this is a deeply personal and sometimes emotional topic. That is why we are committed to full transparency, respect for nature, and ensuring that every activity we offer aligns with responsible, conservation-led principles. We ensure that only specific animals are selected based on ecological research, maturity, and the overall well-being of the herd. This approach avoids any negative impact on breeding groups or vulnerable species. By working closely with local conservation authorities and rural communities, we help fund important projects such as anti-poaching patrols, habitat restoration, and wildlife monitoring. Our aim is to protect biodiversity while offering responsible and meaningful travel experiences.
