Zimbabwe
Nico Lourens Safaris
hunts an array of different areas depending on the client's species preference - from the Matopa Hills to the vast Zambezi Valley, including the famous Matetsi areas, where the terrain varies from Mountains to Mopane Woodlands with thick bush and sporadic open plateaus. We specialize in Leopard hunting, baited or with hounds. Our success rate on a 14 day Leopard hunt, stands at a very impressive 90%. We have our own pack of well trained hounds- it is a hunt of a lifetime.
We cater for bow and rifle hunts. We work in conjunction with top Outfitters and are well known for the top quality trophies that our clients have taken over the years. In this area it is required from you to take Malaria medication. Tsetse flies are also encountered at times.
