The Central African Republic is undoubtedly one of Africa’s most famous big game hunting countries. It is home to two of the continent’s most iconic antelope species: Derby’s eland in the savannah and the bongo in the forest. Their hunt, a unique quest in the life of an African hunter, is a real challenge.

Despite many years of unrest in the country, National Safari has not ceased its hunting activity in the field. Their territory completely in the East of the country offers by its location and its remoteness a natural protection to the hunters wishing to live an extraordinary adventure. The hunting area of more than 1,000,000 Ha is bordered by the Vovodo river and is made up of a multitude of different biotopes: savannah, wooded plateaus, large mountains and especially the mythical Central African ‘bakos’, forest galleries rich in unbelievable fauna. National Safari will immerse its hunters in the atmosphere of the great safaris of yesteryear where many areas of the territory have not yet been trodden by man. From a base camp along the river, hunters will be able to set off on a flying expedition in search of emblematic and mythical species: bongo, giant forest hog, yellow-backed duiker, leopard, savannah buffalo, Derby eland, roan, bush pig. Come with us and experience the last great African adventures.

La Centrafrique est sans conteste l’un des pays d’Afrique de grande chasse les plus réputés. Il héberge deux espèces d’antilopes parmi les plus emblématiques de ce continent : l’éland de Derby en savane et le bongo en forêt. Leur chasse, quête unique dans la vie d’un chasseur africain, relève d’un véritable défi.

Malgré de nombreuses années de troubles dans le pays, National Safari n’a pas cessé son activité de chasse sur le terrain. Leur territoire complètement à l’Est du pays offre par sa situation et son éloignement une protection naturelle aux chasseurs désireux de vivre une aventure hors norme. La zone de chasse de plus de 1.000.000Ha est bordé par la rivière Vovodo et est composé d’une multitude de biotopes différents : savane, plateaux arborés, grandes montagnes et surtout les mythiques ‘bakos’ centrafricains, galeries forestières riches d’une faune incroyable. National Safari plongera ses chasseurs dans l’ambiance des grands safaris d’antan où de nombreuses zones du territoire n’ont pas encore été foulées par l’homme. A partir d’un camp de base le long de la rivière, les chasseurs pourront partir en expédition volante à la recherche d’espèces emblématiques et mythiques : bongo, hylochère, céphalophe à dos jaune, léopard, buffle de savane, éland de Derby, hippotrague rouan, potamochère.
