For hunters who prefer complete freedom and flexibility, our day rate hunting option allows you to experience your African safari without committing to a predetermined trophy package. 

Rather than selecting your trophy animals before your arrival, you hunt on a daily rate and choose which species you would like to pursue as opportunities present themselves in the field. Each trophy animal taken is then charged individually according to our standard trophy price list (add tab to the trophy price list below).  

This option is ideal for hunters who enjoy the freedom of making decisions as their safari unfolds, allowing you to pursue the animals that interest you most while experiencing the excitement and unpredictability of hunting in Africa. 

Our standard safari is 10 days in total, including your arrival and departure days, with eight full days dedicated to hunting. This provides ample time for a rewarding and unhurried hunting experience. The duration of your safari can, however, be adjusted upon request to suit your individual travel plans and hunting objectives. 

A Hunt Built Around You 
The greatest advantage of our day rate hunting option is flexibility. There is no predetermined list of trophy animals that you are required to hunt. Instead, you have the freedom to pursue your preferred species, adjust your priorities during the safari, and take advantage of exceptional trophy opportunities that may arise while you are in the field. 

Whether you have specific trophy species in mind or prefer to see what Africa presents, our day-rate option allows you to create a hunting experience that is truly your own. 

Additional costs apply only to the trophy animals you choose to take and to any services specifically excluded from the daily rate, including airfare, required hotel stopovers, taxidermy, dipping, packing, shipping, and trophy export costs. 

For hunters seeking maximum flexibility and the freedom to choose as they go, our day-rate hunting option offers a personalized and authentic way to experience an African hunting safari. 

Your daily rate includes the essential services required for a comfortable and professionally managed African hunting safari.
