The story

A life shaped by wild country.

Born in Zimbabwe in 1991, Amir grew up under the guidance of his father, Amin. Time in the bush from an early age gave him a close understanding of African wildlife and developed the passion for dangerous game that would shape his career.

After high school he began his apprenticeship with Side by Side Safaris, accompanying hunts across Zimbabwe and building practical big-game experience before earning his full professional hunter’s licence.

Alongside his field career, Amir completed a bachelor’s degree in business administration through the University of South Africa. He brings maturity, energy and a clear belief in sustainable, ethical hunting to every safari.
