Ranking Plains Game, Ranking Dangerous Game

I'm curious to hear from those that have a safari or two under their belts, how would you rank the overall experiences of hunting specific plains game, specific dangerous game?

If money was no object, what would be your top choices for hunting plains game when considering the overall experience, the difficulty, the terrain, the chase etc?

Separated From Ammo

Is a safari compatible with a trip to Egypt?

I’ve never hunted Africa, I badly want to and my wife is coming around to the idea. She has always wanted to see the pyramids and experience Egypt. I would like for her to have the opportunity to see and do the things she wants to do.

I am certain it would be very difficult to bring my own rifles on this trip, which is ok.

Are these two experiences compatible on the same trip? Let me know your thoughts.

Where are the best places to track Eland?

I’m interested in doing an Eland hunt. I’d like it to be a traditional tracking style hunt. I would appreciate some input on where the best places are to do this. If it was in an area with good bushbuck hunting that would be a bonus !

I should also mention that although I’m sure I’d love it, I’m not looking for a Lord Derby Eland at the moment.

Thanks!
