HUNTING

Hunting with Mellivora Safaris

Hunting in South Africa takes place all year round, but we suggest you book from March to October. The weather is more comfortable during these times as the Limpopo region is well known for its hot conditions. During the suggested times the weather cools down and will ensure that the trophies don’t damage due to hair slip.

Types of Hunting:
At Mellivora Hunting Safaris, we cater to all rifle, bow and handgun hunting. All of our concessions have bow hunting blinds and our PH’s are well experienced in all forms of hunting. We have some of the best guides in the Limpopo province to assist you in making your dream hunt come true. We can not guarantee any trophy animal, but our guides will do their professional best to try and get you your dream trophy.

Rifles

You are allowed to bring 2 rifles of different calibers only. Import and export permits are required for your rifle/s, and we can suggest a company to assist you with regards to this. Alternatively, we have a rifle hire option available, and the fees are set out on the pricelist.

Hunting Concessions

We have a total of just over 20 000 acres of the most beautiful and diverse hunting areas in 3 different locations across the Limpopo province.
They are situated in the areas around Bela-Bela, Thabazimbi and Alldays. Each of these areas are unique in vegetation and topography and provides for very exciting hunting experiences. Our home base is situated in Bela-Bela and is a short hour and 45 minutes drive from O.R. Tambo International Airport.
All of these areas are host to common African game, but also host different species of game.
Your safari will be tailored to the species you wish to hunt, and this will be a deciding factor on which Lodge you will be booked in to. Both the other Lodges are up to luxury standards and will provide a comfortable and relaxing environment.
