Welcome to Umvuleni African Safaris, your premier destination for an unforgettable South African Hunting Safari experience in the heart of the Eastern Cape. Pieter and Gideon de Klerk are a father and son combination that are passionate about hunting and wildlife. Pieter has more than 25 years of hunting experience in Africa. UMVULENI AFRICAN SAFARIS is situated only 200km from Port Elizabeth airport close to Bedford. This Malaria free area offers more than 30 huntable species for the hunter. Rooted in a rich family legacy that spans 150 years, our business is more than just a hunting safari – it's a tradition passed down through generations. Pieter and Gideon, a father-and-son team, grew up immersed in the world of hunting. Their inherent love and passion, coupled with years of practical experience, set them apart as exceptional guides in the field. Our family-owned farm provides the perfect backdrop for your adventure, where tradition meets modern-day excitement. Nestled along the banks of the Baviaansriver, our lodge offers a unique blend of comfort and authenticity. Pieter's wife, Helena, adds her touch of hospitality and culinary excellence to the experience, ensuring that your stay is not only memorable for the thrill of the hunt but also for the warmth of our welcome.
We are proud to announce the opening of our newly renovated Umvuleni Hunting Lodge.
Nestled at the bottom of the Baviaansriver valley, the lodge has breathtaking views of the surrounding bush veld and Winterberg Mountain range in the background, situated on the walls of the Baviaansriver.
Our hunting accommodation is of high standards, with a splendid charm and charismatic ambiance.
Our hunting lodge is only 2 hours drive from the Port Elizabeth airport. The lodge is decorated with numerous trophy mounts giving it a 'hunters camp' feel. Our lodge can sleep up to 10 guests (sharing) with 4 en-suite rooms. It is famed for its warmth, vibrancy, and legendary hospitality.
