Hotfire Safaris is privately owned and owner run.
Hotfire, known for its iconic Kudu and Nyala, also hosts many other species in habitat and terrain where they naturally occur and breed. True hunting at its best!
We are your guides. We adhere to strict ethics and conservation values when hunting, fly fishing, deep sea fishing, or wing shooting.
We promise an honest, epic, and memorable safari with new friendships made to last.
Set in the Eastern Cape, the camp is very accessible, yet extremely remote. Spectacular and varied topography. Offering miles and miles of river frontage, rocky cliffs and dense mountainous vegetation, this is home to diversity difficult to explain. Here, Africa’s nature is on display, from fishing to birding – with an abundance of game. Secluded bush camp set among a grove of indigenous trees. This is the base of Hotfire. The home of tough authentic hunting in South Africa’s most popular province.
Our logo describes what we’re about and it couldn’t be better explained. Easy to recognize, yet a challenge from the outset. The endemic eastern cape greater kudu. Smaller, more beautiful than it’s larger cousin, but offering a classic experience for the discerning international hunter. 6000-plus acres of distinct African wilderness is what we offer, time and your commitment is what you need.

Property & Location
Our camp is a Classical East African Style tented camp with all the comforts that one would need. Electric blankets, fans, electricity. Lovely bathrooms built into surrounding dolerite boulders. Set amongst stunning indigenous vegetation within a large acacia grove with swimming pool to while away the heat of the day.
Turnstream Reserve, which is the base of Hotfire Safaris, is undulating terrain with high mountainous cliffs falling away through valley bushveld to the Black Kei River. It is interspersed with flat grassy areas, riverine bush, mountain forest and small annual streams. This allows incredible stalking utilising glassing-and-stalking and walking-and-stalking. This terrain and vegetation allows a variety of species, from buffalo through to grey duiker.
