Kiwi Safaris New Zealand is based in the beautiful city of Christchurch, in the South Island of New Zealand. Kiwi Safaris New Zealand is a member of the Westervelt Sporting Lodge Network. The partnership was formed in late 2005 after the acquisition of Hunt New Zealand and NZ Hunt and these two companies came together along with Kiwi Safaris New Zealand Ltd to form the South Pacific's first hunting consortium. Mike Freeman is the General Manager of Kiwi Safaris New Zealand and the head office is conveniently located at Christchurch International Airport.

Mike’s great love of hunting over the previous twenty years saw him become an outfitter in 1988. Being an avid trophy hunter, he has built up an excellent knowledge of all game species found throughout the South Pacific. Mike has also hunted overseas with some of the best outfitters in Australia, New Caledonia, Mongolia, Canada and the United States.

In January 2004 and 2005 Mike was honoured by Safari Club International at the Reno Convention when he was awarded the runner up award for the International Professional Hunter of the Year for 2004 and 2005.
