llamapacker makes some great points. I only bowhunt, so I'm probably not the best person to recommend an outfit for rifle hunting. However, when people ask me where to bowhunt, I start with some of the same questions lp mentioned above. I also concentrate a lot on which animals the person wants to take. Just like pronghorn live in open grasslands and Coues deer live in rugged thick terrain, each African species has its preference as well. If Kudu is your most desired animal, go to a place that has great Kudu hunting for big Kudu. For example, the Eastern Cape has a smaller subspecies of Kudu, and while it's less expensive to hunt, they won't be nearly as large (body or horns). Black Wildebeest only live in a few small areas. Figure out what you want from the hunt (species, overall hunting style) and the trip in general (visiting national parks, elephant back safari rides, etc.), then look for a place that excels in those areas. Don't just pick a place that other people liked unless you know it will meet with what you are looking to get from the trip.
