Your stay in South Africa With your comfort in mind, we will meet you at Johannesburg International, Bloemfontein or Kimberley Airport from whence we will travel to the destination of your choice. The ideal time to plan your trip is between March and October. During this period temperatures are milder and the days in most parts of the country abundantly sunny and brisk Accommodation A broad range of accommodation is available. You may like "roughing" it by camping out in the wild under the African sky, or may wish to settle for something more comfortable like the fully equipped camps on our game farms. If you are a "comfort-connoisseur", our list of fully outfitted guesthouses specializing in traditional South African culinary delights including venison dishes, complemented by the finest South African table wines Duration Hunts of a minimum of five to ten days are recommended depending on the number and species to be hunted. One trophy per day is a useful guideline Climate South Africa has a wide range of climate zones.
