We have many lodges to choose from but have decided to stick with a select few that are ideally suited to our needs. A short overview of each with the associated hunting areas may be viewed by selecting from the menu above.
All the lodges offer excellent food, comfortable beds and warm hospitality to make sure you enjoy your African Safari. The game is here in abundance and our ethical hunting methods will have you coming back for more!!
THE EASTERN CAPE
We are fortunate to be in a totally malaria-free area with a beautiful coastline, rolling hills and abundant game. The city of Port Elizabeth offers a number of attractions found in most South African cities for those who need to get to shops, banks etc. Our game parks include Addo Elephant Park where you will get up close to elephants in the wild, as well as buffalo, lion, rhino and antelope. Our coast boasts exceptional fishing and trips can be arranged at sufficient notice, depending on weather conditions. Although your trip will be during our cooler months it is possible to have high temperatures even in the middle of winter, so a range of clothing is recommended. Colours should be dark shades for hunting, but not too bright!
There is always the possibility of one or two wet days so bring a rainsuit and waterproof boots if you have them.

HOW DOES A HUNTING PACKAGE WORK?
Our Hunting Packages offer very good value for money, giving you the opportunity to take trophies at significantly discounted rates. On classic safari hunts you pay the published daily rate and the trophy fees of the game you choose to hunt.
In your chosen Hunting Package the animals are pre-selected and you decide which species you want. Various hunting packages are available for you to choose from. A Hunting Package is simply a number of animals you pay for regardless of which ones you successfully take (but every effort is made to ensure you get a fair opportunity to do so), and no credit is given if you miss/decide not to shoot a particular species. You may also take additional animals at the published trophy fee if you so wish, subject to availability of quotas and the discretion of the Professional hunter or Outfitter.
You may also extend your hunt at the published daily rate for extra days. Changes to Packages can be made if arranged prior to the start of your Safari.
TERMS & CONDITIONS ON HUNTING PACKAGES
Credit will be given to the client (value of the animal in the package) if he had NO REASONABLE CHANCE to take a certain species. Missed shots/wounding is considered to be a reasonable opportunity.
Wounded animals are considered taken. The animal will be called wounded if it reacts as if hit, the sound of impact is clear, or the PH or tracker are adamant the animal is hit. It is not necessary that blood or flesh is found to be called a hit. Every effort will be made to recover the animal before hunting recommences for other species, and the PH is authorised to shoot if necessary.
Sufficient hunting time is available for each package of animals. If the client chooses to pursue a specific animal or species and passes up opportunities on other package species, resulting in less time for such animals due to this decision whatever the circumstances (eg. client wounding an animal, poor weather conditions, ill health), no refund is made.
We adhere to a strict policy of no refunds on animals in the package not taken (given reasonable chances). Clients can however negotiate with the outiftter to exchange animals in the package for other animals of similar price before arrival in South Africa.
We reserve the right to change prices without prior notice, and will immediately communicate any such changes with booked clients.
