Hello, new to this page and just looking for some guidance if possible. I am trying to plan a trip to Africa for my family of five ( 2 adults 3 boys 13-16). Just wondering if anyone has any experiences with a family of this size and any packages available for a family of this size. I would like to book with a place with lodging set up for a family with nice pool/pools, overall just want a great experience for the family whether hunting or relaxing at the lodge. Thanks in advance! (I should add we are from Alberta, Canada)

YOUR IN THE RIGHT PLACE, SPONSORS SHOULD RESPOND SOON. HAVE FUN!
 
:S Welcome: to AH

You are definitely in the right place. Have a look at the Sponsor Outfitters to start your research.
And I am sure there will be some good outfitters along here shortly.
 
I have a family of 5 and hunted in both South Africa and Namibia. I would highly recommend Khomas Highland Safari in Namibia. Phillip is a great host, great lodging, pool, food, price. He is a sponsor here. Good luck.
 
Family of six here, we stay together because we hunt together. I'm sure you'll find plenty of places that are family friendly.

Jacques @JKO HUNTING SAFARIS has taken many families on hunts. This includes guiding my two sons a few years back. I'm sure we can set something up for your family that meets your needs along with the pool. Please contact me with anymore specific questions you're thinking of.

Hello @Gshep_04 - Welcome to AH.

I have hunted a few times in Africa with my family (wife, 1 girl 2 boys). We have hunted with JKO Hunting Safaris and also with Kalahari Safaris in Namibia. Both outfits would provide you with the trip of a life time.

Much appreciated! I will look into them both, thank you!
 
Welcome to the site........planning is a fun part of an African trip, and you will be spoiled for choice. Just a note......if you plan on June-August...........a common time for boys to be out of school.....many of the pools are too cold to swim in.......Although being from Alberta, you may be able to tough it out. Have fun.............FWB
 
Dear Gshep we would be thrilled to help you plan and help this family trip become a reality we specifically cater for group hunts to ensure that every member of you family is taken care off and enjoys then trip top the fullest. I'll send you a dm also.

Preparing for the adventure of a lifetime. Looking forward to my 2026 Africa hunt with Van Wijk Safaris in South Africa.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
