There’s a quiet magic in stalking a Limpopo Bushbuck through the tangled riverine thickets where the Mogol flows shallow and amber between sandstone bluffs. You don’t often see him until he’s already gone—a flash of white beneath the tail, a sudden shimmer of horn through the tamboti.

This isn’t a hunt of distance or speed. It’s one of silence, patience, and deep respect. You move slowly, careful not to snap a twig underfoot. The sun filters through fever trees and fig, painting golden light across the damp earth. Somewhere ahead, he’s watching.

Some memories fade, but the smell of the dust after a midday thunderstorm… the low rumble of a lion at dusk… the way your hands shake just slightly after the shot—that stays with you.

An African safari with Chris Troskie Safaris is not a holiday. It’s not an excursion. It’s a passage into something older than words—into landscapes that humble, animals that challenge, and moments that change the way you see the wild, and yourself.

Whether it’s tracking eland through thornveld or sitting around a fire listening to stories passed down through generations, you’ll know deep in your bones: this is where adventure still lives raw and real.

Come as a hunter. Leave as part of the land.

Africa isn’t calling everyone. But if you’ve felt the pull—if you’ve dreamed of wide horizons, tracking at first light, and standing quietly in the presence of something wild—then maybe it’s your time.
At Chris Troskie Safaris, every hunt begins with a conversation. No canned trips. No crowded camps. Just real people, real hunting, and the kind of memories that never leave you.
Tell us what you’re looking for—whether it’s plains game on the open savannah or the raw challenge of dangerous game. We’ll help you build something true to who you are as a hunter.
Africa is waiting. You don’t need to be ready for everything. Just ready to begin.

The blesbok isn’t the largest or most elusive game in Africa—but there’s something unmistakably noble about him. Head held high, shoulders squared, a flash of white blaze against the rich caramel of his coat. He owns the open veldt with quiet defiance.
You’ll find him where the land rolls wide and empty, where the wind carries scent for miles and there’s nowhere to hide but behind your own patience. Hunting blesbok is often a test of the stalk more than the shot—spotting him first across the flat lands, then closing the distance over sun-baked grass and shallow ridges without being seen.
And when you do get close enough, when he stands broadside and still as a statue, you're reminded that even the so-called "common" game of Africa deserves our full respect. A clean shot. A steady hand. A moment not to be taken lightly.
This is why we do what we do. For animals like this. For the land that shaped them.

There’s a world of difference between being guided... and being part of the journey.
A private safari with Chris Troskie Safaris isn’t built from a brochure or a standard itinerary. It’s crafted around you—your pace, your priorities, and your pursuit of something real. No lines of vehicles. No ticking boxes. Just you, the bush, and the raw authenticity of Africa as it truly is.
Packaged safaris offer convenience. Private safaris offer meaning.
When it’s just you tracking through the red sand, when the kudu steps out at 80 yards and every breath counts—that moment is yours. Not a product. Not a performance. A memory carved into your soul.
This is not about exclusivity. It’s about integrity. About choosing the kind of safari where your presence matters—and where the land still speaks in its own language.

Embark on the wild journey of a lifetime—and understand that this isn’t about ticking boxes or chasing trophies. It’s about the early morning hush before first light, when the mopane leaves crunch underfoot and your heart beats in rhythm with the wild. It’s about the stories carried on the wind, the quiet wisdom of old trackers, and the pulse of Africa beneath your boots.
At Chris Troskie Safaris, the journey begins long before the first track is found. It’s in the campfire conversations, the weathered hands passing down knowledge, the shared silences as a kudu bull emerges from the thicket. It’s respect—earned and given freely—for the land, the wildlife, and the traditions that shape every step of the hunt.
Some call it a safari. We call it coming home to the wild.

Out here, comfort doesn’t mean detachment. It means coming back from a long day’s hunt, dusty and content, to a place that feels like home—but deeper, simpler, closer to what matters.
At Chris Troskie Safaris, luxury doesn’t shout. It whispers through the quiet hum of a ceiling fan, the softness of a bed turned down after sunset, and the scent of woodsmoke drifting from the open-air lapa.
You’ll find warm water, fine meals, and the kind of hospitality that doesn’t need a script. It's the little things—the fire lit before your return, a cold drink waiting, stories shared under a sky without noise or lights.
Our camps are tucked into the bush, not away from it. You’ll hear hyenas at night. You might wake to fresh tracks outside your door. And every comfort you enjoy will feel earned, not expected.
Because real luxury isn’t about gold-plated taps. It’s about feeling completely alive, surrounded by wilderness, with every need quietly met.
This is Africa. And this is how we host you.

Long before our fireside companions curled up on kitchen windowsills, their ancestors walked these lands—silent, solitary, and perfectly wild.
The African wildcat is easy to miss. Mistaken often for a feral cousin, it moves like a ghost through the tall grass, ears twitching to sounds we’ll never hear. Most will never see one. Those who do rarely forget it.
This isn’t a predator that demands attention. It’s a creature of quiet mastery—hunting small prey with a surgeon’s grace, thriving not through dominance but through precision and discretion. It doesn’t challenge the bush; it lives in complete harmony with it.
And yet, in that brief flash of striped legs or a glint of golden eyes in your spotlight, you’re looking at something ancient. A bloodline unchanged for thousands of years. A living link between wild Africa and the domestic cats that now purr in living rooms across the world.
It’s a reminder that even the smallest creatures hold deep stories. And that Africa, when she trusts you, still shows her most secret faces.

There’s a look you see when the moment settles in—part relief, part pride, part disbelief. It’s the look of a hunter who has earned every second of the journey. Not just the final shot, but the long walk that came before it. The waiting. The second-guessing. The tracking. The silence.
At Chris Troskie Safaris, these are the moments we live for.
Because it’s not just about taking an animal—it’s about doing it right. With patience. With respect. With the understanding that this land gives nothing easily, and nothing without meaning.
Every client who steps into this experience brings their own story. But what they leave with is something shared—a deep connection to Africa, and a memory that will never fade.
Another happy hunter. Another story written under the African sky.

There’s nothing “typical” about waking to the sounds of the African bush.
Before the sun crests the horizon, camp stirs quietly. The aroma of fresh coffee mingles with the smoky breath of the morning fire. Somewhere in the distance, a francolin calls sharply—a reminder that the day has begun.
After a light breakfast, rifles are checked, wind studied, and the trackers fall into rhythm—feet on earth, eyes scanning, minds already far ahead. The rest is instinct. You walk. You wait. You listen. Maybe you find fresh tracks just after sunrise… maybe not until the light begins to fade again.
There’s no clock here. Time is measured in spoor and gut feel.
Lunch is often under a camelthorn tree, quiet and unhurried. Some days, you glass a koppie for hours. Other days, you crawl on your belly through thornveld for a single chance. Whether you take the shot or not—it’s the hours leading up to it that define the hunt.
Back at camp, the fire crackles again. You pour a drink. You laugh. You remember the way the kudu looked just before it slipped into the bush. You tell stories that feel older than the land itself.
And then, under a sky littered with stars, you sleep. Knowing that tomorrow, you’ll do it all again—with the same respect, the same wonder, and the same quiet gratitude for wild places.
