Founded by Jimmy Van Zyl, a third-generation rancher and avid hunter, our safari company embodies a legacy of stewardship, adventure, and hospitality that spans decades.

For over 15 years, we’ve been dedicated to providing unparalleled hunting experiences in the heart of South Africa. Our roots trace back to Fort Klipdam, where our family has cultivated not just a ranch, but a sanctuary for wildlife and a haven for those seeking the thrill of the hunt.

At Jimmy Van Zyl Safaris, we believe in more than just chasing trophies; we believe in conservation, sustainability, and the preservation of Africa’s natural heritage. That’s why ethical hunting practices are at the core of everything we do, ensuring that each expedition is not only thrilling but also respectful of the environment and the magnificent creatures that call it home.
