Good day AH,
There was a time, not too long ago, when a 21-day hunt was the bare minimum for an African Safari. These hunts, often lasting three months or more, were conducted in a leisurely fashion, taking in the sights and sounds of the Dark Continent and were made famous by writers such as Ruark and Hemmingway. Sadly, in our modern world, everything has become faster, quicker and more condensed. Well, here at Mankazana Safaris, as part of our commitment to promote fair chase, ethical and sustainable African hunting, we would like to turn back the clock.
As part of our 25th Anniversary celebrations, we are excited to offer an old-style, 21-day safari, ideal for a graduation or retirement gift, showcasing some of the finest plains game hunting available in Africa today. There are only very limited packages available, so do not hesitate in contacting us.
Below, is the package offer.
Mankazana Safaris Classic 21-day Safari:
- 21 days
- 1x1
- 1x Cape Springbuck
- 1x Common Blesbuck
- 1x Common Impala
- 1x Grey Duiker
- 1x Warthog
- 1x Mountain Reedbuck
- 1x Cape Bushbuck
- 1x Red Hartebeest
- 1x Black Wildebeest
- 1x Blue Wildebeest
- 1x Burchell's Zebra
- 1x Cape Kudu
- 1x Waterbuck
- 1x Red Lechwe
- 1x Nyala
- 1x Gemsbuck (Oryx)
- 1x Cape Eland
Total Price: $19750. This is a super discounted offer.
This package INCLUDES: Services of a licensed professional hunter (guide), hunting vehicle and support team, pick-up and drop-off at Port Elizabeth airport, accommodations at the lodge, meals, soft-drinks, liquor, local beer and wine in reasonable quantities, daily laundry service, trophy fees for included animals, field preparation of trophies and delivery of trophies to a local taxidermist or shipping agent. Includes VAT. Arrival and departure days are FREE.
This package DOES NOT INCLUDE: Any air travel, pre and post safari accommodations and meals, trophy fees for animals taken in addition to those included in the package or animals wounded and lost, hire of rifles and ammunition, gratuities to PH and camp staff, the preparation + packing + documentation + taxidermy or export of trophies from South Africa, or all items of a personal nature.
You are also able to add an observer or second hunter, for only an additional $1500. If a second hunter is to join, they will pay for the animals they hunt at the current trophy fee prices. As much as I would like to offer this hunt to you all next year, our 2027 season is fully booked, especially when planning on an extended trip such as this. This package is available to be booked in the latter half of 2028, and 2029. To confirm your bookings for this package, clients will need to send a non-refundable deposit of $5000. This deposit WILL be used towards the final amount owed at the completion of your safari.
A safari of this fashion allows guests to experience the vast terrain of the Eastern Cape, without the typical concern of time. Too often, hunters can find themselves in a mad dash throughout the last days of their safari, in order to make up for lost days due to weather or slow game movement, in hopes of acquiring everything they set out for. It also allows for more time to be spent experiencing various cultures, as well as exploring the rich history that this area has to offer.
Understandably, this hunt is not for everyone. Most of us today, are governed by time. That being said, if you find yourself in the position to experience a safari like this, it is most certainly not one to miss out on...
I look forward to speaking to some of you and, hopefully, getting a handful of African hunting enthusiasts to experience our little piece of heaven.
Until then, happy hunting to you all!
