Cazadero, sure sounds like you got mixed up with a couple of questionable outfits in RSA.

blacks, my son and I did our 2nd safari, this last summer. We went to Zim for a dangerous game hunt, and shot cape buff, tuskless ele, and hippo. It was a lot more remote and "wild" than RSA. However given what you AND your wife are looking for you will be able to fill the bill very nicely in RSA. Just make sure you do your homework, as far as checking out the outfitters on your short list. Good luck in your search.
