Over the last 30 years, Chappie and Marilyn Scott have
proven that few can match their warmth and hospitality, not
to mention the quality of hunting they produce. They have
been honoured as one of the legends in African hunting and
therefore 14 Weatherby Award winners have made it a point to
include the Scotts on their safari schedule.
Their hunting concessions are among the richest in Africa,
boasting over 30 species. From the thick valley bushveld, to
the savanna and high mountains and Karoo, Scott of Africa
will be able to assist you in your African adventure.
