Testimonials of Our Hunters That Come With Us to Hunt in Spain.

Shannon

Mercedes, I wanted to thank you for such a wonderful and amazing trip. I can’t think of a single moment that was not wonderful and enjoyable. Spain is an absolutely beautiful and wonderful place and I cannot wait to return someday. The personal time that you spent with us and the places that you showed us brought such added enjoyment into our trip. To see so many different little towns and to be in places that aren’t the usual tourist traps in the big cities are exactly the experiences that we love when we travel. Spain is absolutely beautiful. Waking up to glorious Mediterranean sunrises day after day was an absolute dream come true ~ Magic I had been dreaming of since I was a teenager. The beautiful small towns and villages, the Sunday market, the amazing Cathedrals ~ I have no words. The pictures I had seen of these places are nowhere near their true beauty. Those places were incredible and so beautiful dressed up so regally for Christmas. The wonderful lunch on the beach was second to none, and I very much loved the restaurant we drove to after the marketplace on the Sunday afternoon that your friends owned; the outstanding food and wine and getting a tiny little peek of life in your home town. The churches, the Christmas lights, the amazing nativity scenes …. These are all things that I keep sharing over and over with family and friends. Thank you again for such an incredible experience that will never be forgotten. We truly enjoyed every moment and look forward to visiting again soon !

IberHunting with Antonio and Mercedes, On behalf of my wife and brother-in-law and sister-in-law, the Scholars, we want to thank you for our amazing trip to Spain. Antonio you did an excellent job, in fact, you went over and above to make sure we harvested our Gold medal Grand Slam. Being a disabled veteran meant a lot to me to get these beautiful animals. I appreciate your patience and the professionalism that you took with me. We would also like to thank your wife, Mercedes for customizing our hunts, and literally taking our wives on tours, showing them excellent shopping areas and fine Restaurants. Basically taking them under your wing and offering them an excellent time while our guys were out hunting. I just want to say, we all highly recommend Antonio and Mercedes for any hunt that you might be thinking of doing. They will customize your hunt to fit you and your family’s needs! I know you probably hear this all the time, but this was truly a trip of a Lifetime! Thank you Antonio and Mercedes for a wonderful hunt and vacation. We not only had a great trip, we now have two more wonderful Friends!!

We (Steffi and I) have done 6 hunting trips to Spain with IBERHUNTING in the last 10 years! All trips were a complete success. Antonio and Mercedes, together with their team, organized everything top-notch. So I could see the Aoudad Sheep, all 4 types of ibex (Grand Slam), a small Spanish wild boar, and various pieces of red deer (2 Monterias) as well as Steffi and others, she killed a mouflon ram! Accommodation, food, hunting guide, and selected areas were of excellent quality and can be recommended without reservation! We are already looking forward to the Monteria planned for 2023 and the hunt for strong Spanish roebuck!

Denmark My son and I just hunted the Gredos Ibex with Antonio from IberHunting – and we each got a beautiful Gredos Ibex. My wife, daughter, and my son’s girlfriend participated as spectators and enjoyed it a lot. We have previously hunted the Sierra Nevada Ibex with IberHunting – also with success. IberHunting delivers what they promise – and often more. Exciting and successful hunts, great accommodation and service – and enjoyable company – what’s not to like.

I had the pleasure to hunt Marco Polo Sheep in Tajikistan with Antonio, and his great local crews, he and the crew were outstanding. It was a pleasure to see my body could resist the hardness of such a hunt in the highness and thin air. This was a successful hunt, and I even manage to get a Pamir Ibex, as an extra bonus. The hardness and beauty of the mountains will make this hunt stand for me as an experience every hunter must try – if they are fit for a mountain hunt. All my sincere thankfulness to all the staff at Iberhunting, the crew in Tajikistan, my fellow hunters, and of course the best – Antonio. Yours sincerely Ole

It’s been a phenomenal experience hunting with Antonio in the Sierra de Cazorla national park. The communication and preparation ahead of the trip was effortless, professional and proactive. The organization during our trip, including the local expertise of the guides, choice of venues and accommodation was unparalleled. I can only wholeheartedly recommend him and his organization and we will definitely book another trip with him very soon. Antonio, thank you for the priceless memories.

I have hunted all over the world and with many different outfitters. I must say that Antonio and the entire IberHunting team are one of if not the best guide services I have ever had the pleasure of hunting with. My wife and I just came home from a 21-day safari in Zambia. Antonio and his entire IberHunting crew did an incredible job of both making this safari successful and enjoyable. it was one of the best experiences of our lives, we recommend it to everyone. contact IberHunting, you will not be disappointed!

André

My last hunt at the beginning of November 2020 at the Boc Balear was my fifth adventure with IberHunting and each time it was a real pleasure. Both the hunt and the organization were successful. The hotels and the food will always remind me of Spain, its flavors, and its landscapes. The guides do an exceptional job of getting you into a shooting position so the hunter can collect their trophy. Many thanks to Antonio and also to Mercedes who take such good care of organizing everything to perfection for their hunters. Thank you, my friends. Andre.

I get asked a LOT what my favorite trip over the past 6 years has been. Honestly, it’s almost impossible to pick just one. But, I will say that my time in Spain with IberHunting is definitely up at the top of them all. Spain is incredible for so many reasons: the cities, the countryside, the food, the history, the culture, the people, and of course the hunting. Antonio and the folks at IberHunting SPAIN SL are probably the best outfitter I have ever worked with. The attention to detail is world-class. If you are thinking about planning a trip somewhere you should consider going to Spain. It is the perfect place to combine a family vacation with a hunting trip. And IberHunting can guide you through it all.

Andrzej

I have hunted two times in Spain with Antonio and his team. I have hunted one mouflon, one aoudad sheep, one Ronda ibex and Sierra Nevada Ibex. The atmosphere during the hunt with IberHunting’s team was great and very professional. After the hunt, we had great meals and good restaurants around the mountains. I’m very greatful to have hunted with Antonio. My next hunting plan will be Gredos and Beceite Ibex and also Buffalo hunting in Zambia. Dr. Andrzej Tomaszewski From Germany

I really enjoyed the hunt with IberHunting and I couldn’t ask for a better guide. In retrospect, I think he made the hunt. He made the hike and stalk on that first day very special and one that I will remember every time I look at my Ibex. This was a really great trip and I thank everyone involved. Mercedes with IberHunting needs to be mentioned as well. She is the one I emailed with questions prior to coming over for the hunt to be sure I had everything. But, more importantly she coordinated and conducted the trips for the ladies. My wife tells me she had a great time and will let me go hunting again as long as I take her along with me.

I have hunted all five continents for many animals, and this was one of the most enjoyable hunts I have had. Antonio was fantastic, as he stays on top of everything, is a top notch PH and this was my first hunt with him. I am looking forward to another fantastic hunt with Antonio in October of 2020 for both different chamois, mouflon sheep and wild boar in Spain. He is so Professional and enjoyable to hunt with and be around in camp. Can’t say enough good things to express how great a hunt I had with Antonio. The outfitter he uses in Romania is top quality. All the best!

I was hunting with IberHunting, in the area of Bacares, Almeria. This is the highest town in the Sierra de los Filabres, a fantastic area, with steep mountain. We saw the rut of the Red Stag at the end of september, an absolutely amazing experience Where we could see many roaring Red Stag on the hillsides around us. The stay was at the cozy Hotel Las Fuentes, which was deliverable for great dining experiences. This is definitely worthy of a recommendation.

I recently completed the hunting trip of a lifetime. I live – and hunt – in Montana, and have hunted many other places in my lifetime, including three excellent trips to Africa. This year (2017) my father and I traveled to Spain to hunt Spanish ibex. We booked our trip with Antonio Teruel and his world-class company IberHunting through my father’s good friend and hunting companion Mete Babayigit from Turkey. Upon arrival in Malaga and introductions with our new friends Antonio and my guide Sergio, and meeting Mete at the airport, we have whisked away to a beautiful Spanish hotel and then taken to a fine Spanish dinner. Read Less It was a classy beginning to our awaiting adventure. The following day we all hunted together, and I took my first ever ibex – a Ronda. It was hard to decide what was more beautiful – the hide or the horns. At that point we split up, Sergio and I traveling north to hunt for Beceite and the Sierra Nevada and my father, Antonio, and Mete remaining to hunt Ronda. Upon arrival to the Spanish Sierra Nevada mountains, we spotted several ibex before dark but were unable to make a successful stalk on any legal males. After a restful night and another wonderful dinner in Bacares in a quaint Spanish inn – La Fuentes, owned and operated by Sergio’s mother and uncle – Sergio and I traveled further north, where we were able to take another excellent specimen, this time a Beceite ibex. Having now taken two of the three ibex I had come to hunt, we returned to Bacares, where I eventually took my third and final animal, a majestic Sierra Nevada. We then met back up with my father, Antonio, and Mete, and I was joyfully able to accompany my father when he took his Sierra Nevada, an old bruiser for sure (my father, or the ibex? Hmmm, that’s a tough one…) I then had to return to the States while my father stayed behind, eventually collecting all five species of ibex he had come to hunt. While this was clearly an extraordinarily successful and enjoyable hunt based on the magnificent Spanish ibex we were fortunate enough to collect, I must say that the hospitality and camaraderie that we shared with our guides and all the people we met along the way, the breathtaking geological and architectural creations and olive and almond groves we witnessed in our travels and hiked through on our hunts, the delicious Spanish food and superb accommodations to which we were treated, and the simple and relaxed immersion into the ole-world Spanish lifestyle and culture that we felt and experienced which could not have been appreciated without such marvelous hosts, is what put this particular hunt over the top and made it one that could never be equaled. Thank you, Antonio, Sergio, Mete, Diego, Jose, Paco, Maria, Jose, and everyone who made this journey an escapade that I will never forget. I can’t wait to return with my wife and possibly my brother and his wife to complete my Spanish Grand Slam with a Gredos ibex and accompany my loved ones in their quest for their Spanish Ibex and adventure of a lifetime. I now dream of it every night. I will see y’all soon!!

Chuck & Natalie

My wife and I have just completed (yet another) hunting trip of a lifetime with IberHunting. I was returning to Spain to complete my Spanish Grand Slam with a Gredos Ibex; I had successfully hunted the Ronda, Beceite, and Sierra Nevada Ibex with IberHunting on a wonderful trip with my father last year, and this time my wife accompanied me in order that she could hunt a Balearian Boc and experience what a fantastic country Spain is. We were met in Madrid by our guide Sergio, who had been my guide last year and whom I had specifically requested for this year’s hunt. He is not only an excellent hunter but a gracious host as well. After a day touring Madrid – including the incredible Royal Palace – we had a wonderful traditional Spanish dinner in a quaint old establishment and then retired to our hotel room to rest up for the next day’s flight to the Mediterranean isle of Mallorca to begin my wife’s hunt for her Boc. Read Less Upon arrival in Mallorca, Sergio took us to our temporary home for the next few days – the Hotel Son Sant Jordi, a 17th-century Spanish inn located in heart of the town of Pollensa. What a wonderful, quaint, old-world structure it was; it – and the surrounding town – gave you the feeling that you had gone back in time to Spain centuries ago. We made a quick hunt in the afternoon, where we spotted several quality Bocs, but Sergio and our Rangers Gabrielle and Raphael knew there were larger animals to be found, so per their instructions, my wife passed on the first few on that first afternoon. The next day Sergio and Gabrielle guided us to a silver medal class Boc right off the bat; my wife was eager to shoot this beautiful animal, but again our trusted companions urged her to wait for a larger one. Several hours later Raphael tracked us down as we hunted a different area and informed us that there was a very nice Boc that had somehow been mortally wounded earlier in the day and which was going to either die a slow agonizing death or possibly stumble off the edge of the 1,000-foot cliff where he laid on the coast of the Mediterranean, only to be consumed by sharks. My wife immediately offered to use her tag on this animal in order to do the humane thing and put it out of its misery. She made an excellent shot, and upon approach, we realized that the animal had a beautiful hide, an extremely long double beard (the longest I have ever seen), and excellent, gold medal horns, and she was more thrilled in the way that its harvesting had come about – necessity and compassion – than if she had stalked it from 1,000 yards. Now that’s a true hunter and conservationist. The next day we were off to the town of Jarandilla at the foot of the Gredos Mountains west of Madrid, where we were treated to three nights in the Parador De Jarandilla, a 14thcentury castle (yes, a castle) that was formerly the retreat of the Kings and Queens of Spain and other royalty. After yet another excellent meal we retired and prepared for the next day’s hunt, which would soon become the most incredible hunting day of my life. We were met by Rangers Norberto and Jose early in the morning, and with them, we traveled to the mountains to begin our hunt for the Gredos. We initially began in a river bottom, but soon turned back as the weather was going to be warmer than expected; we would have to travel further up the mountain as the Ibex would be much higher in elevation in order to stay cool. We soon split up, with long-legged Jose taking off alone in order to get higher quicker to try to spot some animals. Natalie, Sergio, Norberto, and I paralleled him somewhat lower, while still gaining quite a bit of elevation as we hunted. About 3 ½ hours into the hunt, we spotted a very nice Ibex about 600 meters yards away. We slowly and carefully made our stalk and once we were about 250 meters away I set up for the shot. Somehow I missed, and the animal bounded off unscathed. We were all very disappointed, and I was shocked and embarrassed at my shooting skills (or apparent lack thereof). We continued on, all of us knowing in our hearts that I had blown the hunt for the day. But wait! Up ahead Jose spotted another Ibex, and after another stalk, I was once again within about 250 meters. This time I was able to connect, and we soon realized that the Ibex we had taken was even larger than the one I had missed earlier. It appears fate was on our side. After some lunch, photographs, and skinning of our animal we made the long hike out. It had been an 8-hour day of hiking, and we felt we had truly earned this wonderful trophy. The remaining days in Spain were spent touring the country and sampling the food and wines, which was an adventure in itself. There comes a point when hunting Spain, as you stalk the same creatures that have been stalked there for time immemorial; as you pass by the remains of buildings and aqueducts that were built thousands of years ago, often far back in the mountains a hundred miles from civilization; as you tour the castles and churches in the towns that have been providing shelter, comfort and spiritual guidance for centuries; as you witness and interact with the Spanish people as they go about their daily lives with the same mannerisms and customs as their forefathers and their forefathers for many, many moons; and as you eat the food and drink the drinks that have been eaten and drunk – in very much the same way – for eternity; that you feel a true connection to not only Spain itself, but too old Spain, as it was and as it has been and as it will seemingly (and hopefully) be forever. In fact, you sense a connection there to the entire human race, as it has always existed, and as it always will, on a deep and transcendent level. And you look around in awe. And you want to come back again and again. That, my fellow hunters, is a moment that is indescribable, unforgettable, and mystical, and more valuable than simply the hunt itself to which it is tied. Thank you, Sergio, Antonio, IberHunting, and Amigos for guiding us through such a wonderful opportunity and adventure. We look forward to many more in your company.

Hello Spain, Hi Antonio, as you know, our adventure started in 2012 meanwhile we’re already in 2019. I dare say that we’ve had a few adventures. Since then we’ve crossed the entirety of Spain and it became time to discover different places. It started in Greenland, you succeeded in persuading me to join the trip. But with an organization like IberHunting, I dared to take the leap of faith. The 26th of august was another big challenge, you persuaded me to go hunt in Kazachstan. From Frankfurt, we left together with Filip and Jan towards Almaty and from there another 11 hours of driving to the border of China. The hunting on a horse with a bag and baggage and a little tent was amazing. The landscape and the experience, we could tell so much about it but still, we wouldn’t be able to describe our experience. Sun, hail, and snow we had it all, but through perseverance, the result was 100%, we all had our Capricorn and even a bit more.Read Less Jan, Filip, and I experienced an amazing time thanks to your organization and the close ties you had with the local guides. I dare to recommend this adventure to everyone, but only with your organization. Again the preparations, the checklist, the flight, and the stay after the hunt was managed excellent as per usual. Antonio God is willing we’ll have many more adventures together. Kind regards, Freddy.

Hunting with Antonio and Sergio of IberHunting was an absolutely amazing experience. My wife and I were treated like family from the moment we arrived in Spain. Being a bow hunter I was nervous as there aren’t many that travel to Spain but Antonio and Sergio never discouraged me got me on numerous game every day I was there! I was able to harvest a beautiful Sierra Nevada Ibex on my second day and it was truly a dream come true. I can’t wait to return back to Spain with Antonio and Sergio for more hunting!

Brad & Maile

Antonio and Mercedes, I want to take this time to tell you just how much I appreciate all of the work you both put into getting Maile and I to Spain for a hunt I will remember for the rest of my life. I had no idea what to expect on this hunt. Although the hiking was much more challenging than I could have ever expected, it was an invigorating opportunity to challenge myself. Although harvesting all of the animals I had the opportunity to take was a great experience, the time together with you was much more meaningful and will forever be engrained in my mind. Thank you for all of the incredible memories!! I will never be able to repay your for the trip of a lifetime, however you will always be welcome at our home in Texas or Wyoming. I look forward to seeing you this January in Vegas. Keep well and hunt safe. Brad and Maile Garfield

From an organizational standpoint Antonio of IberHunting was excellent!! He provided me with the necessary information to book the hunt and details on needed gear and what I could expect. The accommodations were very comfortable and enjoyable. Antonio was an excellent guide and I was able to harvest four species during this 10 day hunt. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions, we were unable to hunt the Chamois. Having early success allowed Antonio to show me some of the sites and take in some of the excellent cuisine that Spain has to offer. I would recommend this hunt to anyone who is starting or finishing their Ibex Slam. I appreciate the time and effort Antonio put in to make this hunt as advertised and as expected. Animals Harvested: Southeastern Ibex, Gredos Ibex, Fallow Deer & Mouflon.

In September 2017 I went to Kazakhstan with IberHunting to hunt the Asian ibex. It was a great experience to be able to travel to Kazakhstan, and also a challenge. It is impressive to see how IberHunting manages to find the best partners in a country so different from what we know at home. The journey began in Almati, and after 12 hours of travel, we arrived at the base camp, where we spent the night. The next day we went to the high altitude camp, where we meet our individual helpers. The rest of the way was done on horseback. Up to 10 hours of horse riding, an impressive challenge. The effort was rewarded with magnificent landscapes and natural surroundings. We even had a chance to see bears and mountain goats. On the third hunting day I had the opportunity to hunt my Asian ibex. It was an unforgettable trip and I can only thank IberHunting for a well organized planning once again.

Personal note to Dennis Campbell: I had a very enjoyable experience hunting with Antonio Teruel of IberHunting Spain earlier this month. I met Antonio last year at your GSCO Slam Quest Convention in 2017. He provides a high-quality service, is very passionate about his work, and you are fortunate to have him represented at your show. My personal note to this hunt: “We met Antonio and Mercedes Teruel of IberHunting Spain last year at the GSCO Slam Quest Convention. They were new exhibitors at your convention and found them to be very qualified, with over 30 years of guiding/outfitting in Spain. Read Less I signed up to hunt both the Cantabrian and Pyrenean Chamois, while touring some of the most gorgeous historic mountain regions of Spain. The hunting itself, was fun and exhilarating, with lots of hiking/climbing. Antonio is very good man, organized and holds excellent relationships with the locals in the mountain ranges we hunted. We enjoyed the rural setting, the food, lodging, historic villages, local people, etc. This was my 6th and 7th chamois specie, and my 15th and 16th Capra species. I highly recommend IBER Hunting Spain.

Spain. It all started when I decided to purchase an Ibex hunt that was available during the silent auction at the 2016 GSCO convention. I had no knowledge about the outfitter, but the late Dennis Campbell assured me that IberHunting was a class act… and as always, Dennis was spot on. To get the ball rolling, I had started working with Antonio and his wife, Mercedes; and before I knew it, I had 8 animals booked. The decision was made to do the hunt in November of 2017, and on October 31st, I was on my way to Madrid to start my 25-day Spain safari. The number of animals I booked, along with the distance we needed to travel between them, was a concern for me as I was not sure this could all be done in 25 days. Read Less But, Antonio from IberHunting made it look easy. Only 7 days into the hunt, I had already taken both the Pyrenean and Cantabrian Chamois, as well as a very good Gredos Ibex. By day 12, we hunted an Aoudad Sheep, Southeastern Ibex, and Mouflon Sheep, and were able to take a wild boar and female Mouflon along the way. At this point, we found ourselves ahead of schedule, so we decided to take a side trip to Mallorca, where we were able to successfully hunt the Mallorca Wild Goat. With IberHunting being a licensed travel agent, an added trip such as this was easy to do! By day 15, we were back on mainland Spain hunting Ibex again. Over the next 8 days, I was able to take a Great Ronda Ibex, a fantastic Beceite Ibex, and a 2nd Southeastern Ibex. I was even able to add a female Southeastern Ibex to help fill my Spain mountain mount. When the smoke had finally cleared, I had harvested a total of 12 animals and covered the entire country of Spain, all in 25 days. This is truly the trip of a lifetime. Antonio, Mercedes, and the entire group with IberHunting are top-notch. Everything from the pre-trip planning, to the 5-star lodging which we stayed in, was first class. Even the food was over the top. One week into the hunt, I told Antonio we needed to back off on the food as my wife would not believe I was sheep and goat hunting if I come home gaining weight. For all you North American mountain hunters! Spain is a beautiful, exciting, and affordable mountain hunt. At the end of the day, I spent 25 days and was able to harvest 12 animals, all for about the same price as a Stone Sheep Hunt in B.C. To obtain a great value, and experience the trip of a lifetime – IberHunting is the place to start!

To fellow sheep/ibex hunters, I would like to tell you about a trip I took to Spain this year, but first I want to share some details about myself. I am 74 years old and have been booking at least one guided hunt every year since 1976 except for the last 2 years for everything from quail to elephants. After 2 years of failing health, in 2015 I booked a to Pakistan, which I felt would surely be my last hunt. During the hunt, I had a guide by the name of Mete Babaygit from Turkey. During the hunt, I was struggling physically and thought I would have to quit, but Mete would not let me. He said “Just hold onto me. I will carry you if necessary.” We were successful. Two weeks after I came home, I was diagnosed with meninges, a form of brain tumor. Mete and I continued to stay in touch, After 3 operations and a year’s recovery, Mete told he thought he had a hunt I could do if I could get back into reasonable shape.Read Less The plan was to hunt 4 ibex in Spain with Antonio, a friend of Mete’s, starting with the easiest one and working up to the hardest one. The hunt sounded so appealing that I also had him book a hunt for my son, Chuck, for 3 ibex. Upon arriving in Malaga, Chuck left with one of Antonio’s guides, and Mete and I left with Antonio. Within an hour, we were hunting in a national park. The only criticism I have ever heard of Spain was this it is a more or less spot and shoots hunt. We did not find that to be true, We had to work hard for our animals. There are just so many animals there that it is hard to not be successful. It is a true free range hunt. I would have to rate this as the best experience I have had in my 40 years of guided hunts. Both Chuck and I were successful. Antonio was the perfect host and seemed to know everyone in Spain. We stayed in nice hotels, and the food was delicious. In fact, I had to pass on dinner 5 nights because I had eaten so much for lunch and breakfast, Chuck is booking for the Gredos that he did not have a tag for this year, and my other son is booking for 2019. If you are interested in this hunt, I would be glad to share it more fully with you.

M.H

If you like adventure, you should definitely choose the Azerbaijan hunting program. I have had the pleasure of traveling to Azerbaijan and hunting the Dagestan Tur with IberHunting. This trip was physically challenging due to the terrain, but everything was perfectly planned and the guides were very professional! There was nothing to point fingers from when we arrived in Baku until we came back from hunting again. I can only recommend IberHunting to travel hunting in Azerbaijan.

Ole

Hi Antonio First of all thx for a great experience for you and your staff, they provide us with so many fantastic adventures. We arrived at Malaga airport, and was quickly through custom with our weapons, as the officer knew IberHunting, so no worries or extra explanations there. Pick-up was quick, and soon we were on the road to Berja, and what a nice surprise – the landlord was Danish and an excellent chef. We were met at the accommodation with Antonio and his staff for dinner and an introduction and check of weapon and cartridge for Ibex hunt. Read Less The next morning we were on the road to spotting Ibex, which should be of the correct age and size, after the first lunch and many seen Ibex, my team spotted a group of Ibex with a fantastic male so then after a little discussion about how to attack the hunt, we decided to drive sideways at the mountain for 1 km and we started the hunt, and after about 2,5 hours hunt through the rough mountainside, I succeed to shot the Ibex, a beautiful silver medal at the age of 11,5 years. Then we had to drag the animal down to the road, which took me and the outfitter around 1 hour, and a lot of sweat, so we were exhausted and wet when we arrived at the mountain road and got in contact with the driver. Many thx for an excellent and very hard hunt, succeed with a beautiful Ibex. PS I slept like a baby that night. Yours sincerely.

Adventures for a lifetime! I have been hunting in Spain with Antonio and IberHunting for a few years. I repeat as many times as I can, Spain is much more than paella and beaches. We have had some extraordinary hunting trips for ibex, roe deer, deer, and wild boar! I can’t wait to do more! During the last few years, I have also made some “once in a lifetime” hunting trips with IberHunting. Trips outside of Spain. Especially to be mentioned Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan. Read Less In Kazakhstan, I went horse riding for the first time in my life, a lot of hours during the day. Conclusion – no problem. I was also blessed with two lovely trophies! Everything is close to nature, close to locals. People with the right attitude, let’s go for it! In Azerbaijan I got my Dagestan Tur shot from 520 m, about 4000 meters above sea level. For me, for the first time in my life. Never knew if I would make it that high. The locals are extremely positive, polite, and hardworking! I thank Iberhunting.Viajes for making it possible, and I’m looking forward to the next adventure! Sincerely, Jan.

One of my best trips yet. Perfect for one and perfect for two. If you are looking for the perfect place to take your better half hunting. I will particularly recommend this place and IberHunting as an organizer. The hunting is located in the national park and when back at the beautiful valley hotel, your host, the other hunting guests and various spa’s and the Michelin star-rated kitchen awaits you. Every detail is very well organized and guided. All the way from booking to leaving. Read Less The terrain can be easy slow up & downhill walking or hard work and climbing if that is what you prefer. In both cases the hunting is perfect. I know, cause we did both. Hunting is spot and stalk, in the most magnificent mountains, in a perfect for walking temperature/climate. We saw lots and lots of games, from fallow deer, red deer to Ibex and vultures. Lots…!! I was the only gun-carrying hunter on our trip, but my fiancé actively hunted as well, by spotting and stalking just like the guide and I. We got a nice representative Ibex, a very nice selective “einwachser” Mouflon, and two females. The national park is relying on hunters for completing the eco circle as top predators, which makes the hunting a lot more than just getting a trophy and having a good time. I love this place and intend to go back there soon.

Dear Mercedes and Antonio. Another hunt with Antonio, and this time with Christian as a local hunting guide in the search for Beceite, in the beautiful mountains near Rossell, the weather was after November conditions hot and there was the fine presence of the female ibex, but the male was not so accessible the first day and the second day was spent on some observation and hiking in the mountains, Read Less the end of the day we managed to get close to a group of 4 goats which of the two was representative and two trophy ibex, after an exciting hunt I succeeded by taking a nice example of Beceite Ibex. Once again thanks to Mercedes and Antonio, with many fantastic experiences in the beautiful Spanish mountains, supplemented with good food and beautiful hotels that reflect the areas we have visited to take down my Spanish Grand Slam at the 4 ibex. Best personal regards. Allan.

Finland We were the first Finns that hunted with IberHunting. So it was not a surprise that we had some worries before the trip but we more or less right in the beginning realized that it was not needed! We had a trip of the life time! We have been hunting in different places during the years and this trip was one of the best ones or even the best! Hunting in the mountains of Spain was exceeding all the hopes and it was awesome to end the experience to Monteria. Once more thank You Mercedes and Antonio about wonderful memories. Matias Huhtala (Finland). On behalf of Team Hubertus.

Everything was perfect about this hunting adventure with IberHunting. The accommodation and the service in each location was on top of the line in fact exceeded my expectations. I met Antonio through my friend Matt Guedes of journeyhunts.com with no doubts Antonio is the best organizer he made our 14 days traveling between 6 different locations all over Spain so easy and joyful and of course helped me accomplish exactly what I came for. 14 days made me know them very well and felt like one family towards the end of this journey. This is my first with him but for sure he’ll be my source all over Europe for any hunting adventure. Thank you once again for the amazing experience Antonio!

Dear Mercedes and Antonio, Once again we decided to go to Spain for hunting with IBER-HUNTING. This time is was for Beceite Ibex, which was the last one I lacked to get the Spanish Ibex Grand Slam. As usual we had brought along golf equipment, since we did not expect to spend more than one day, perhaps two to get the Ibex… Mercedes and Antonio had arranged that we were staying in a nice golf resort, so we could play golf when the hunt was over. A nice way to combine the interests of the family ;-). Read Less As Antonio and the ranger said the first day – two hours then it is over!!! We just need to drive up into the mountains, locate the animal herd and shoot… But it turned out, however, that the hunt was not quite as easy as expected. It took three long and intense hunting days in the mountains before I got my Ibex. Last days at the very last hour we managed to spot a bronze medal ibex out at 350 meters… I took the shot and succeeded. What a great experience ;-). Because of the many long hunting days, there was not much time for golf, so Antonio offered, the last two days, to drive back to the hotel at lunchtime to pick up Jill who had played golf in the morning. What other PH would do that to satisfy the non-hunting part of the family… We are very grateful for that, Antonio… Thanks for yet another wonderful holiday and unforgettable hunting experience in Spain. And thanks for the fine “Spanish Ibex Grand slam” present you brought me. It is appreciated and looks great in our living room. We will definitely come back 😉 See you.

I had the very good fortune to come across IberHunting when looking for an Ibex hunting opportunity in Spain. I say good fortune because there is always an element of risk when booking a hunt, and you never really know what to expect. You rely on word of mouth or reviews you read. Well, I found a gem, so if you are weighing up options and comparing different outfitters, I can honestly say that you should probably stop here. I cannot imagine that your hunting experience would be better with anybody else. Read Less From initial contact, help with anything and everything regarding planning, transport (even, as in my case, when you arrange your own) and regulations is done with down to earth friendliness that epitomizes Spain and how the hunting community should interact. This made getting there and arranging everything a breeze. Once ‘on site’, the experience was even better. In my case, we were hunting Ibex in the Gredos mountain reserve – we met Antonio from Iberhunting at the organized accommodation which was a perfect blend of local charm and cuisine, ideal location and hunter-friendliness…everything went smoothly and the whole feeling was one of warm welcome. Antonio was a perfect host who has obviously established good relationships with the hotel(s) he uses and provided entertaining stories as well as pertinent advice for the current hunt as well as overall hunting opportunities in Spain and elsewhere. I got the sense that he is interested in building and maintaining a good reputation based on the delivery of a good service at a reasonable price that will encourage hunters to return, as opposed to just ‘selling a hunt’ for short-term profit. The hunt itself was outstanding. All hunting takes place in the reserve (which, from what I understand, is the case for all Iberhunting hunts) so you are assured that the quality, quantity, and sustainability of animals are actively managed. This makes a big difference unless a) you do not care about environmental issues and b) you are willing to take the big risk of arranging a hunt in areas that are shot out or with very marginal populations. Because it is a reserve, your guides are reserve Rangers who know the mountains and animals very well: They know exactly what you are after in terms of trophy size and are extremely knowledgeable. In fact, they are scarily capable of estimating trophy size very accurately at distances way beyond shooting range! After careful scoping, walking/climbing, and finally stalking a viable Ibex and getting into position for a shot, the guides are extremely helpful and take control without ‘taking over. Once down, the trophy was properly tagged and well cared for in preparation for the taxidermist. There was no pressure for handling the trophy – the choice is yours. I chose to have the trophy mounted in Spain by the taxidermist that Antonio deals with – I have yet to get it but have no doubt that I will like the end result. All in all, a very pleasurable trip and an excellent hunting experience with an outfit I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone!

We would like to acknowledge a superb event when hunting the above-mentioned species. On the Photos, you can see the impressive results, but we have many other big experiences in our memories. The Hunt took place in ”Parque Natural Sierras de Cazorla” – a big mountain area northeast of Granada. Read Less The terrain was rough with sharp cliffs and big ravines and spectacular views – and lots of game! On the first two days, we observed Red Deer Stags, hinds, and calves – Fallow Deer full shuffle plus lots of Pricklets and hinds with calves – mouflon rams and females – Ibex both bucks and females and Wild Boars. It was exciting and very nice, to see so much game in the free nature, and it was certainly a fact that made this experience both fantastic and special. It is difficult shots and the hunter is being tested – rather long ranges and odd angles. The Mouflon was shot from the “valley”, which means a shot angled up, at a distance of 120 y, and the Ibex was taken from a high position with a shot nearly 200 y – furthermore, it was on the other side of a ravine with steep (read vertically) slopes, but we succeeded in coming down and over and up again to the place of action – so there is a reason why we look so happy and satisfied on the Trophy Photo. The fact, that the weather was good and the Hotel also was top of the scale with fantastic food and wines and service, did that we in all had a very nice experience in Andalucia. We would really like to come again! Kind regards from Birgit & Klaus.

Hej Antonio, Once again, a great hunting experience accompanied by you, This time you attracted us with the hunt for the smallest Chamois, the Cantabrian, we got 3 successful hunting days with 3 animals taken, one each day. And as always, there are well taken care of meals and accommodation. A challenging hunt in the beautiful Sierra de Ancares where we saw everything from fog, rain and strong wind to a beautiful sunny day at the end. This is mountain hunting that will be remembered with excitement, thanks for some great hunting experiences. All the best!.

My name is Daniel, I’m a Spanish hunter who, with some friends, we have been hunting with IberHunting and Mistral for the Mid-Asian Ibex in Kazakhstan (Dshungarian Alatau area) from 30th July to 10th August 2013. The hunt was very well organized from pick up and assistance at the airport, transportation to the base camp, throughout all the hunt, and back to the airport. Read Less The hunt began early in the morning from the base camp, where the accommodation, overall atmosphere, and cuisine were excellent with plenty of explanations about the hunt. After a long journey on horseback and walking, we reached the top of the mountains, where we placed our fly camp and started spooting for the ibex. The game itself takes place at around 3000 meters, in pretty steep mountains with quite a difficult approach in some cases, so the hunter must be in GOOD physical conditions to do this hunt. The hunting team is very professional and always willing to help you and the population of good trophy ibex is really high in that specific area. Under normal weather conditions, 2-3 hunting days is well enough to harvest your trophy. I took my “monster” Ibex at 330 meters in the evening of the first hunting day and it was surprisingly large and thick. After a long and hard horse/walk trip of about 100 km, during three real hunting days, we were back to the “high camp” and most of my colleagues were back on the same day or a day after. All of us have harvested a really nice trophy, and one-off us get two massive ibex in the same day. Special thanks to Tony Ulmer for leading me during the Hunt and to Antonio for their paperwork and the enthusiasm preparing all the game …. I would highly recommend that hunt with Antonio (IberHunting) and his team, the experience has been unforgettable, mountains are hard and highly demanding, but all in accordance with agreed. Thank you very much for the Hunt you have been prepared for me.

Dear Mercedes & Antonio!, Hunting with you and your professional local guides was very enjoyable. The mountains were beautiful, there were plenty of animals, the accomodation and the food was great. I think all of us are very satisfied – three very good representative ibexes in 11 hours, it’s not only fortune. It was an excellent trip for us, it will be in our memories for the rest of our life. We are looking forward to visiting you again, and we can only give IberHunting our best recommendations. Special thanks for the journey of Alhambra! Best wishes Sándor Szabó, Hungary.

I went hunting with IberHunting Spain in the Mountains of Sierra Nevada for Ibex in the end of November 2012. There was a lot of Ibexes and the stalking was both physically challenging and very exiting. It is evident that the hunting pressure is not very high in the National Park and the hunt is very selective. I was in position to shoot several times before the stalker was happy with the size of horns of the animal in front of us. A part from the hunting I must also praise the food and the accomadation of the hunting trip. I can only give IberHunting Spain my best recommendations.

Thanks a lot for some memorable days hunting with you for Beceite Ibex and Barbary sheep. Everything was like I expected; a professional hunt of high quality for trophy animals of the different species. Especially I find it trustwothy that hunters, who for some reason do not manage to shoot the animals they have a license for, keep this personal license for three years. Which means that they can come back once again and finish the hunt! I was also very impressed, both by the way the population of this species are regulated and by the high density of animals. And not to mention the beautiful areas we hunted in, both in Sierra nevada and Andalucia. I recommend this hunt with out no reservation.
