For LJ Safaris, it isn’t about just the kill, its about the hunt, the stalk, the adventure and the memories made/ shared.

Back in December of 2019 my wife and I began searching for places to travel to for our honeymoon. This is when Lauren from LJ safari reached out to me and our planning began. It was very clear from the first conversation that this would be where we went for the hunting stage of our honeymoon. Of course life, covid, etc postponed our initial trip plans back a little bit, but the conversations with Lauren never stopped. They were so accommodating and understanding with us and understood it was not a matter of if we were finally able to come but when. Fast forward to 2022, and finally our trip was here. We had a list of animals that I wanted to target, and the time was upon us. We flew into Port Elizabeth, Juan, Lauren’s husband, was waiting for us when we got off the plane. Of course, now that we were actually finally in South Africa and our luggage was missing. After a short ride to town, Juan was extremely helpful and we were able to obtain some key clothing items that we would need to start our time in the bush. Lauren and Juan have several rifles they were gracious enough to allow me to use in the meantime while waiting for my bow to arrive in Port Elizabeth. This was my first trip, and let me tell  you, the animals were unreal. Juan was very patient and kind in pointing out all the animals, explaining to us what they were, and continued throughout our time with them, even when we were pointing out an impala for the 60th time. For LJ Safari, it isn’t about just the kill, its about the hunt, the stalk, the adventure and the memories made/ shared. We spent the first couple hunts scouting for mature animals. Again not just hunting to kill, but hunting to harvest mature animals. Our hospitality was the best of our entire trip, and Lauren cooked all the meals with occasional help from Juan, and hands down, was the best food we ate on our entire trip, meal and meal again. Juan & Laurens knowledge of the animals and terrain were second to none, and put both my wife and I at ease knowing we were in great hands for our entire hunting portion of our trip. We arrived in South Africa as facebook acquaintances, however left being great friends. When we came, it was a once in a lifetime initial thought trip, however, we left planning the next adventure with Lauren and Juan. We will come back to South Africa for another hunt, and when we do, it will be with LJ Safaris !

You could book with another outfitter but you’d be making a mistake. When you book a once in a lifetime trip to Africa, you want to know the outfitter is legit and you will have a great hunt. LJ Hunting Safaris is the only outfitter you need to call. I have hunted...

It was so fun to see how each stalk unfolded often not in our favor, however it made the experience that much more. Just when you would think it couldn't get any better it found a way to do so! For nearly my whole life I have dreamed of going to Africa.  My plans were...
