Testimonials
The hunt you provided for my family in New Zealand was the BEST adventure we have ever had. The Red Stag and Tahr hunts were perfect and lived up to our expectations that were very high.
Thank You

Accommodation
You will note in our pricelist, that we offer three levels of accommodation and care, this is reflected in the daily rate charged. This gives us a valid comparison with some of our competitors, who do not necessarily stipulate what you are getting.
In Season
Right now is a great time to visit New Zealand to hunt, Wild Boar, Deer and Turkey!

Tim is a well travelled hunter, and wants to keep busy in his “Off-season” So now we are offering guided hunts in many of the destinations where Tim has personally hunted. We offer fully outfitted and accompanied hunting safaris to some of the more unusual destinations of the world.
Welcome
HUNTING IN NEW ZEALAND:
New Zealand offers a unique hunting experience, a combination of scenic variety, friendly people, excellent food, wines and accommodation, a haven for many outdoor activities, pleasant climate and a good range of interesting species to hunt.
And the great advantage of New Zealand is that all of its diverse physical, cultural, and artistic landscapes are so close to each other.
New Zealand is primarily an English speaking country, however with the ranks of our staff, we have many language capabilities.
Our Hunting Safaris offer something a little different from many of our competitors, in that we offer Real hunts in a variety of locations.
We do not park our clients in one fenced area, and see how many species they can shoot in as few days as possible. Instead each Safari is a journey of discovery of New Zealand, seeking out authentic hunting opportunities in a variety of locations.
We see this as a “Road Trip” of the best New Zealand has to offer. Along the way you will meet a diverse cross-section of New Zealand’s people, combined with excellent accommodation, food and wines. All the while guided by experienced Professionals.
Animal populations and trophy quality fluctuates on an annual basis, it is one of our strengths, that we keep abreast of changes in the “Hot Spots” and get our clients to the areas where they will get the best hunting experience on the species they are seeking.
Browse our pages, study our pricelist, and decide for yourself, the type of Safari that you are looking for in New Zealand.
The Youngest Country:
New Zealand was the last landmass on earth to be discovered by mankind, making it the youngest country. Since the first people arrived over a thousand years ago many cultures have made New Zealand their home.
In it’s original state, New Zealand had no Land mammals, other than some species of native bats. As humans colonised the country over the past 1,000 years they brought various animals for utility and sport. In general the introductions were highly successful, but have resulted in many ecological disasters, with population imbalances and attempts to correct them by introducing small predators. Some of these small predators have devoured our native bird species to extinction.
The result, of man’s mismanagement, has been that our Government has declared all of our Big Game animals as noxious pest to be hunted and destroyed at will. So we have very little regulation of Big Game hunting and no fixed seasons. This may seem like a paradise for hunting, but in fact, it has had a negative impact on trophy quality and easily accessible hunting. Today the best populations of quality trophy animals, are found on Private lands, and especially where land owners have taken care to manage the trophy quality of their wildlife, and also in remote areas of Public Lands.
