Omega Safari Outfitters

Omega Safari Outfitters isn't a destination you fly into and hope things work out. They're local South African hunters who've built a complete operation around visiting hunters. From the moment you book, they're your personal point of contact—they arrange your flights, meet you at Johannesburg airport, drive you to the camps, and make sure you leave with trophies and stories.

Omega operates multiple hunting properties in the North West Province:

Daily rates cover the full operation. With a 1x1 setup (one hunter, one PH/guide), you're paying R 6,650/day. Two hunters with one guide run R 5,250/day per person. Group hunts of 3+ drop to R 4,550/day per person.

What you get: - Accommodations and full catering at camp - Professional hunting guide (PH) and tracker/skinner - All land transportation during the hunt and round-trip from Johannesburg airport - Skinning and trophy preparation - Transportation of trophies to the taxidermist - Beer, wine, and KWV brandy (in moderation) - Laundry service - All permit fees

What you pay separately: - Trophy fees (scaled by size—see below) - International airfare to South Africa - Taxidermy work and shipping after completion - Gratuity for guides - VAT tax

All COVID-19 travel restrictions to South Africa have been lifted for US passport holders. Omega handles all arrangements: - Flight booking assistance - Airport pickups at Johannesburg (JNB) - Round-trip transportation to camps - All in-country logistics

All prices are listed in South African Rand (ZAR). Special arrangements can be made to pay in US dollars (USD). Exchange rates apply at booking.

Due to international law, you cannot export game meat. Omega prepares special cuts for eating around the fire at camp; the remainder is donated.

Trophies are skinned, prepared, and transported to a taxidermist. You arrange and pay for taxidermy work and final shipping separately—this happens after your hunt concludes.
