Customisation Options
Add extra hunting days, request specific species, or build a family-friendly itinerary with non-hunting activities depending on the season, region, and species.
While we believe in transparency, we do not list detailed prices directly on our website for the following reasons:
> Customisation: Each safari is tailored to the hunter's unique preferences, game selection, and duration. No two trips are the same.
> Privacy: We respect the confidentiality of our clients and their investment in these high-value experiences.
> Fluctuations: Prices may vary depending on seasonality, region, and species availability.
We offer clear, comprehensive pricing so you can plan your safari with confidence. Whether you're a local or international hunter, our packages include expert guiding, accommodation, logistics, and trophy handling.
Note: For detailed pricing sheets or custom quotes, please contact us.
Daily Rates
We charge a daily rate that covers all essential services: guiding by a licensed Professional Hunter, lodge accommodation, road transfers from OR Tambo International Airport, and daily amenities like laundry and soft drinks. Rates differ for local and international hunters and vary depending on the package and group size.
Species Pricing
Each species carries its own trophy fee. This includes both plains game and dangerous game species. Trophy prices may vary due to availability, region, and seasonal factors. A full list of species and indicative rates is available on request.
Permits & Legal Requirements
Certain species (such as Giraffe, Black Wildebeest, and some Dangerous Game) require additional permits. These include Specially Protected Game Permits and TOPS permits, which we will obtain on your behalf at the time of booking.
