Pricing · no packages
We do not sell set packages. The combinations are open. On the ground, the trip costs the daily rate multiplied by the days, plus the trophy fees for the animals selected. A $500 deposit locks the current pricing. The final list is due a few weeks before the trip so permits can be pulled.
The formula
Days × rate + fees
Nothing is bundled. Add an animal, add its fee. Add a day, add a day rate. Decline an animal and you do not pay its fee.
Airfare, tips, dip-and-pack, and U.S. taxidermy are not in this number.
Example, not a package
$6,475
One way a client might write the list: impala, warthog, blesbok, gemsbok.
Swap gemsbok for kudu and the bill changes. That is the point.
Example, not a package
$10,725
Another list: kudu, gemsbok, blue wildebeest, impala, warthog. Yours can be shorter, longer, or none of these.
Springbok colors are just more lines on the same sheet.
Per person, per day, in U.S. dollars. The $500 deposit locks these rates. Arrival night is the lodge, not a hunting day. The first morning is the range, then the hunt.
| Rate | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit | $500 | Locks current pricing and holds the dates |
| 1×1 plains game | $450 / day | One hunter, one professional hunter |
| 2×1 plains game | $375 / day | Two hunters sharing a PH. Less time per stalk. |
| Observer | $225 / day | Non-hunter in camp and in the bakkie |
| Extra hunting day | $450 | Added before the hunt, not invented on the last afternoon |
| Rifle hire | $40 / day | Ammunition at cost. Your own rifle is the better plan. |
| Plains-game permit | $250 | Provincial hunting permit, per hunter |
Paid only for animals taken or wounded and lost. Oversized trophies — a kudu past the agreed class, a gold gemsbok — can carry a step-up. That step-up is named in the quote.

Not in these numbers: airfare, passport, tips, liquor beyond camp standard, dip-and-pack, trophy shipping, and U.S. taxidermy. The pre-trip Saturday or Sunday meeting is included. A seven-day custom list of four or five animals, plus flights from Indianapolis, shipping, and tips, often lands between $14,000 and $20,000 all-in.
