“What a great time. Scenery, people, accomodations, food and the hunting were all wonderful. It’s a long way to go, but worth every mile. I brought my wife and she had a wonderful time too. Shane run a first class operation and will be sure that your every need is met. Be sure to ask them about their special possum hunts too.”

“I hunted Red Stag, Chamois, and Tahr with Shane at Four Seasons Safaris. I was there with my wife and 5 children we had a wonderful experience. I was successful in harvesting all three trophies and my wife and kids love the helicopter tours and Jet Boat Ride. Christine and Robbie were fantastic, The service was great and the food was as good as any fine restaurant. We had a great time.”

- Brent Roth

“Four Seasons was highly recommended to me several years ago as the best outfitter in New Zeland for Red stag, tahr and chamois. I recently completed a hunt with Four Seasons and was highly impressed with attention to my desires for an exciting hunt. Every aspect of the hunt was thrilling especially the hunt for tahr in the Southern Alps. Hunters will be very pleased with Four Season.”
