Terms & Conditions

BOOKING REQUIREMENT

A deposit equal to the Daily Rates is required to secure your Safari & Hunting Dates.  

 

BALANCE PAYMENT

The balance of the Safari is due on the last day of the Safari, prior to departure. Only trophies taken or wounded are charged for. All outstanding costs with MHS (trophy fees, additional species hunted, permit fees, etc.) must be settled before departure. Due to continuous fluctuations in international exchange rates MHS retain the right to adapt prices accordingly.

CANCELLATION CHARGES

A 50% refund of the Deposit will be made if cancelled within more than ninety (90) days of the beginning of the Safari, minus a 15% admin fee. No refund of deposits will be made if cancelled within ninety (90) days prior to the beginning of the Safari. However the Safari can be moved to the following year at the rate applicable to that year.

In the unlikely event where MHS cancels the Safari a full refund of the Deposit will be made.

LIABILITY

Mattanja Hunting Safaris, its agents and employees shall not be held liable for any damage, losses and expenses suffered by any client as a result of sickness, quarantine, weather conditions, war, strikes, riots or any other cause outside of our control.

Mattanja Hunting Safaris, its agents and employees, accept no liability in respect of death, injury, loss or damage to person or property arising out of any act, omission or negligence. The client shall be deemed to have waived, renounced and abandoned any and all right or entitlement which the client may be entitled to under the provisions of the law of the Republic of South Africa for any loss or damage to person or property.

Mattanja Hunting Safaris shall not be held liable for any loss or expense arising from the loss of property, cancellation or curtailment of the Hunting Safari however caused, save only to the extent that such loss of baggage, cancellation or curtailment was caused by the hunting Outfitter's negligence.

POSSIBILITY OF ENDING THE SAFARI

If the client does not accept his Professional Hunters instructions and the Outfitters requirements; his behavior and manners make it impossible to stay on the normal course of the hunt; he produces a danger; or poses as a threat to himself and others, the Outfitter reserves the right to immediately end the Safari, back out of the Contract, and he may lay financial recompense for all the booked hunting and non hunting days. Although such cases are very, very rare, we would like to highlight the importance of respecting your Professional Hunter and Outfitters instructions and guidelines. Remember we are only interested in safeguarding your safety and the safety and welfare of our employees and offer you a successful hunt.

CLIENT RESPONSIBILITY

Clients may not carry any unlawful articles or substances in South Africa or Zimbabwe while a Hunting Safari is being conducted with Mattanja Hunting Safaris.
