African safaris, shared across generations.

Since 1996, WOW Africa has welcomed hunters, photographers and families to experience the wild heart of southern Africa. Based in Douglas on the Vaal River, we offer access to over 100,000 acres of hunting and photographic safari country, with adventures extending into Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

Family-friendly. Malaria-free. Unforgettable.

Here, children are part of the adventure. Around the campfire, out in the bush and alongside the wildlife, they discover conservation through real experiences — creating memories that last long after the safari ends.
