About Mandindi Africa
Mandindi Africa was born from a deep and enduring connection to Africa — its land, its wildlife, and its traditions.
What began as a legacy shaped by experience, respect, and responsibility has grown into a safari agency dedicated to creating authentic African journeys, grounded in ethical hunting, immersive photographic safaris, and meaningful conservation.
At the heart of Mandindi Africa lies the belief that a safari is more than a journey — it is a responsibility and a relationship with the land. Whether through a carefully guided hunting safari or a thoughtfully curated photographic experience, every safari we create honours Africa’s wildlife, supports conservation, and respects the people and landscapes that make this continent extraordinary.
Mandindi Africa works as a specialised agency, supporting and booking carefully handpicked Professional Hunters, guides, pilots, and conservation partners who share our values and commitment to ethical, sustainable practices. Our safaris span Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, and are designed to suit a wide range of travellers — from those planning their first African safari to seasoned guests seeking exclusive, tailor-made experiences.
Alongside hunting safaris, Mandindi Africa offers photographic and fly-in safaris, guided either personally by the owner, Charissa von Seydlitz, or by trusted pilots who are not only exceptional aviators but also highly experienced safari guides. These journeys are created for those who wish to experience Africa through a different lens — unhurried, respectful, and deeply immersive.
Every Mandindi Africa safari is crafted with care and intention, balancing adventure and comfort, accessibility and exclusivity. These are experiences designed to create more than memories — they create a lasting connection to Africa, a place many of our guests come to call their second home.
Mandindi Africa is proudly powered by Immenhof Safaris, the registered operating company, combining a strong operational foundation with a focused vision for hunting and conservation-driven safaris.
