Tarentaalrand Safari offers you a
wide choice of hunting packages, Bow hunting, Biltong hunting, Cull hunting and
Informal (Social Bird Hunting). Under the professional guidance of your
Professional Hunters, Theuns and/or Erika Cloete, you can bag as many as
fourteen species of African plains game at Tarentaalrand Safari Lodge, and
other species will be available at the hunter’s request.
Our hunting season lasts all year
round although it peaks in the winter months - March to September. You can
expect shooting distances varying from only 30 meters to up to 250 meters. You
will arrive at OR Thambo International Airport where you can take a domestic
flight to Bloemfontein or Kimberley. Kimberley airport is only a 15 minutes
drive from Tarentaalrand. If we meet you at OR Thambo International Airport or
Bloemfontein airport additional cost will be charged for traveling. Your
booking will be confirmed on reception of 50% of the daily rates. The balance
is payable on arrival in the hunting area.

We recommend that you bring the following:
Clothing of a light safari type, preferably in a drab olive or
khaki colour.
Shoes should be comfortable and well-worn, with a soft sole for
better stalking.
Remember enough warm jackets as nights and early mornings can be
cold. Average temperatures you can expect are: the autumn/winter season (April
to August): 0 to 25 degrees Celsius (32 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit) and
spring/summer (September to March): 10 to 35 degrees Celsius (50 to 95 degrees
Fahrenheit).
A suitable hat for protection against the sun (preferably in
natural colours)
Remember to bring your binoculars and camera/video equipment - the
surroundings are beautiful and a photo will be permanent proof of your hunting
skills
A pocket knife is always handy, as is a torch at night
We encourage hunters to bring their own firearms with which they
are familiar. Temporary permits can be easily obtained for the duration of the
hunt.
Terms and Conditions
50% of the total hunting safari cost is payable as deposit to confirm
and secure a hunt booking, with the balance payable upon the day of safari
commencement. Species fees are payable at the end of the safari and include
wounded / lost animals as determined by the professional hunter.
Normally a standard safari's duration is a minimum stay of 7 days
and maximum of 21 days. Should you require any other special schedule, we would
need to discuss this option first.
When a safari is cancelled the deposit is not refundable unless
termination of the booking is received three months prior to the stated
departure date, in which case the deposit less a 10% handling fee will be
refunded (thus refunding of 90% takes place). Always ensure you get trip
cancellation insurance as unforeseen circumstances including missing scheduled
airline flights can occur!
Although we take all necessary precautions, we accept no liability
for any unforeseen accidents or happenings, due to the fact that hunting and
safari travel can be dangerous.
