Tarentaalrand
Safari offers you a wide choice of hunting packages, including Trophy
hunting, Bow hunting, Biltong hunting, Cull hunting, Informal (Social Bird
Hunting) as well as Green Hunting. The latter is when a hunter shoot, for
example, a rhino with a tranquillizer arrow, and while the animal is lying
tranquillized, a photo is taken of him with the animal. Afterwards the
rhino will recover fully and you will have a picture of yourself with the
animal. In this way no animal is killed, but the experience of hunting
can be felt. This type of hunt is also much cheaper than normal hunting as
you don't have to pay for the animal you shot.
Trophy
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 to add to your collection at home. Ever wanted to add
a Lion trophy to your collection? We can give you this unique
opportunity! Let us know and we will show you a range of lions to choose
from. Add this animal King to your wall and be one of
a few to have
experienced this special encounter with the king of the animals.
During
your hunt we shall expertly field dress your trophy to perfection in our
exclusive facilities. After this they will be sent to a South African
taxidermist of your choice for dipping and shipping and/or stuffing.
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 Johannesburg International Airport where we will meet
you, or you can take a domestic flight from Johannesburg to Bloemfontein
or Kimberley.
Kimberley
airport is only a 15 minutes drive from Tarentaalrand.
If
we meet you at Johannesburg International Airport, you can enjoy the
five-hour scenic drive to Kimberley.

 |
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. |
