The 14 Day North and South Hunting Package offers clients the opportunity of hunting two very different regions in South Africa. The package includes six of the most sought after plains game trophies in South Africa and is a very affordable way of experiencing a quality African Hunt. Our hunting packages contain no hidden costs, everything is included even the dipping of trophies. The only safari related cost which it does not include is the packing and shipping cost of dipped trophies and taxidermy work.

Guests are met upon arrival at O.R. Tambo International Airport (Johannesburg) and are returned there upon completion of the safari. Accommodation is in first rate hunting camps and lodges where all modern amenities are available. Food is prepared to the highest standard and a large variety of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages are available at the hunting camps. This is included in the price of the safari. Our professional hunters have many years of hunting experience. The success rate on the trophies is close to 100%. If however you do not take one of the trophies which is included in the package 80% of the list price of the trophy is deducted from your hunting safari price. A deposit of 20% is payable upon booking your hunting package. The balance is payable upon completion of the safari.

Should your flight arrive after 11am we suggest you overnight at the Lombardy Hotel on the day of arrival and start the safari on the following day. Cost of $180 per person includes accommodation meals and a transfer to the hotel from O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg.

If you do not wish to bring your own rifles, you are welcome to hunt with one of the rifles of your professional hunter. The only cost involved in this is the replacement cost of ammunition. This should be no more than $ 50.

The area is characterized by wooded savannah in varying degrees of density ranging from densely wooded ravines to rolling hills and open savannah areas.This region supports a large diversity of mammal species and is generally regarded as one of South Africa's finest hunting areas.

Hunters: A typical hunting day would start just before dawn at which time coffee and rusks are enjoyed. A selection of breakfast cereals. yogurt and juice is also available at this time. We then embark on the morning hunt. We would normally hunt until about 10:30 to 11:00 at which time we would return to camp for brunch. ( A full meal which is a combination of breakfast and lunch). Some time is then devoted to relaxing in camp.The hunt is resumed at about 15:00 from which time we hunt until sunset.

The methods of hunting employed depends on the preference of the client and can consist of either waking and stalking, hunting from blinds or special vantage points from which we glass and ambush animals.
