Eastern Cape - South Africa

Kei River Hunting Safaris offer a selection of fine Trophy Hunting Safaris.

It might not seem obvious at first, but hunting safaris play a vital role in the conservation of every African species. With grasslands taken up by farming and the reduction of large predators, carefully controlled hunting practices control populations and provide vital support to local economies. Regulations are strict, and there are only specific locations and times when certain animals can be hunted. Tracking in the African bush with only your rifle and your wits is the dream of many, and Kei River Hunting Safaris will not disappoint you.

Whatever your choice, our meticulous, “Attention to Detail” policy is applied, ensuring that the wishes of our client are paramount in the planning of his or her individual Safari.

The reputation of Kei River Hunting Safaris for providing quality trophy hunts, specially tailored to the requirements of each and every client, is second to none and is respected throughout the industry.   As a result, our client is almost guaranteed the opportunity at those sought after trophies.  

Kei River Hunting Safaris offer thirty-five species of game animals, so packages can be tailored to suit the most demanding of client requirements.

During your hunt, you will be accompanied by one of our friendly, knowledgeable and fully qualified Professional Hunters (P.H.).   Your P.H. will be dedicated to guiding you through a successful hunt, while ensuring your comfort and safety throughout your stay with Kei River Hunting safaris.   Your P.H. will be pleased to assist you as he may.

Our P.H.s are qualified to hunt “The Big Five” (Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo, Lion and Leopard) and other dangerous game.   Should this type of safari be the one for you, we will be happy to discuss selecting suitable dates  which is right for you.

Booking with Kei River Hunting Safaris, you can be assured that your time and effort will be expended in the chase and not in the planning of the hunt.  

Assistance in all aspects of preparation, including advice on bringing your personal rifles and ammunition for use on your hunt, is available and the necessary documentation package to obtain a temporary import permit for your rifle(s) on your arrival in South Africa, will be provided to you by Kei River Hunting Safaris .   Advice on suitable calibres and ammunition types is also available from both Kei River Hunting Safaris .

Kei River Hunting Safaris is dedicated to the most strictly ethical hunting, the normal pattern of which is “Walk and Stalk”.   Bow hunting is carried out in Still and Hide form.   Some species like bushpig  are baited and / or hunted with  well trained hounds.   Some excellent wing shooting is available on request.  

Notwithstanding the above, we are pleased to welcome clients with special requirements that are dictated by health or circumstance and we will make every effort to accommodate their hunt and ensure their stay with us is comfortable and enjoyable.  

Renton's Lodge, decorated in rustic South African style, provides warm, comfortable accommodation with lots of bushveld atmosphere.  After the hunt and a relaxing hot shower, our well stocked bar provides a friendly venue for our guests, P.H.s and the Renton family to enjoy hearing the tales of the day's hunt.  

Soon it will be time for the evening meal, when excellent food (and plenty of it), accompanied by a wide selection of our fine South African wines, beers, spirits and soft drinks, is served.

Non Hunting guests and families are very welcome.
