Testimonials

Paul Beckett, Ireland

Basic Instincts is an exciting company specialising in tailor made Hunting & Fishing trips. I have had the good fortune of being on two different types of these trips, an exciting adventure to  Wairata in the Urewera Mountain range. We were flown in by helicopter and met there by our guide Mike Parker. The set up was amazing, with their specialist all terrain hunting vehicles, we could pretty much go anywhere. Coming from Ireland and never having hunted before, I find New Zealand a truly magnificent country, which is perfect for wild deer hunting. I was so comfortable with the service they offer that I was able to bring my girlfriend on the one day trip to Mamaku. Basic Instincts has given me a real eye opener to hunting and I felt in good hands with the expertise and safety measures they have in place. They are an extremely professional company with years of experience and full of good sound advice. I would not hesitate in recommending them to my friends abroad.

There is nothing like having blood up to your elbows to remind you of how good life is. Thank you so much for a great time.

I want to thank you for a wonderful experience. I cant tell you how much I enjoyed it. Every aspect of the trip exceeded my expectations. The trip catered for non hunters too and it was amazing to experience the bush life and scenery. I had so much fun taking part in the target shooting and claybird shooting, as I’m not really a hunter. You truly have something special.
