At Kuche Safaris we understand that to book any foreign hunting safari is for most people a big decision, therefore we will be there to help and assist you all the way and to make it easier on you. We would like to be there for you all the way, from the moment till you contact us till you have your memories on the wall back home. Being in the business a long time we can provide you with good advice and assistance.
Below we provide a guide to booking your African Safari which outlines the whole process, just as supportive information.
Please feel free to contact us with questions or uncertainties.
A compact bright 6 night / 7 day hunt is good, but if you can afford it, we would recommend a 10 Day / 9 Night Safari. This will help to get over jet lag and widen the opportunities we offer you. This also reserves for a more relaxing hunt and enjoyable time.
With us you can choose out of three types of safaris.
- Choose one of our standard hunting packages, fully inclusive of:
• Trophy fees for the animals which are specified in the package.
• You can still change your animals but then the package price will be adjusted accordingly.
• Daily rate (Accommodation, meals, land transportation and the services of an experiences professional hunter. It also includes 14% government tax on the daily rate) - Provide us your wish list and we will tailor-made your own fully inclusive package for you.
- A la carte Safari
• Daily rate includes 15% government tax. Hunt animals as the opportunity arises. Prices as per our standard price list.
In any of the above cases:
- Additional trophies can be added at the price list rate
- Guests are met upon arrival at O.R Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg and will be returned there upon completion of the Safari at no extra cost.
Add-on tours and photo safari day trips are also available
