Payment Question for Safari

[Fotman]

Is it my credit card that charges the international fee or something on the outfitters end?

In my experience, Chase charges $40.00 int wire fee up to a $25k transfer and the receiver also is charged by his local bank. I think that fee is between $50 - 100.

Thanks Royal27! I already had Karoo Wild Safaris setup in my "Wire list" because I had wired the prepayment previously. This made it much easier to transfer the money online. The transfer was from Chase Bank in Houston Texas to Standard Bank in PE. I know a middle bank is used but I had no trouble making the transfer.

Gladly!

Good to know. Wells Fargo won't do that, not to Africa at least.
