Small Group Excep onal Wildlife Viewing

Great Food & Wine Cape Town & Winelands

Hosted by Margaret Jones

This safari has been designed for those who perhaps have not travelled to Africa before and would like to travel in a small group, with the accent on great wildlife viewing, excellent food and wines, and great bush‐luxury safari camps.

The Safari will be escorted by Margaret Jones, a naturalist and Afrophile. Margaret’s first safari in 2004 ignited her passion for Africa and she’s returned on private trips and escorted safaris for The Classic Safari Company ever since. With a head start from her work at Werribee Open Range and Melbourne Zoos, and an eye for a great photo, she's in her element bringing Africa to life for those lucky enough to travel with her.

The safari will visit two very different camps in the private concession areas of the famous Kruger Na onal Park for some excep onal wildlife viewing— expect to see elephants, giraffes, zebras, lions and leopards and much more. The journey will culminate with me in the beau ful and vibrant harbour‐side city of Cape Town with a visit to Table Mountain and historic Robben Island, plus of course me spent in the winelands.

Kapama Buffalo Camp Kapama - South Africa

Reminiscent of a tradi onal African safari camp, Kapama Buffalo Camp offers a unique and in mate experience in the African bush. It is ideal for discovering big game Africa in true safari tented style without compromising on comfort.

Ten luxury newly built canvas tents, each sleeping two, are set on wooden decks built on s lts over a steep‐sided riverbank. Wooden walkways interconnect the rooms, which are all in the upper reaches of tall riverine trees. The river below rarely flows and antelopes are seen daily walking along the sandy riverbed. Each tented room has all the usual comforts of electricity, en‐suite bathroom, taste‐ful furnishings and mini‐bar and tea/coffee facili es.

The communal areas of Buffalo Camp are on the riverbank, where gardens of succulent aloes and euphorbia are tended around the thatched bar, dining room, pool terrace and campfire. But the thick African bush is just a glance away, inhabited by animals like lion, hyena and jackal whose calls can be heard in the dead of night. Lanterns, rather than electric lights, glow at night under the trees, crea ng a special in mate ambience par cular to Buffalo Camp.

With a maximum of 20 guests at Buffalo Camp, special a en on is paid to personal service and the staff become like friends. Kapama Buffalo Camp is a truly authen c way to experience the African bush. Game drives and bush walks are included in the rate. At addi onal cost are visits to the Kapama Wellness Centre, elephant back safaris & elephant interac on and the Hoedspruit Centre for Endangered Species.

INSURANCE

CHI Insurance is offered by The Classic Safari Company.

Comprehensive travel insurance is highly recommended. It is advisable to obtain insurance at the time of confirmation/paying a deposit.

If you have a pre-existing medical condition or if you are 75 years and over you first need to obtain a quote from The Clas-sic Safari Company. Once obtained you will need to telephone the CHI Medical Assessment team on 02 9998 7870 or 1800 671 826. An assessment will be made and any additional pre-mium will be advised.

Pricing and Currency Fluctuations and Conversions

The Classic Safari Company is invoiced in foreign currency for your land and/or air arrangements. To determine the Australian Dollar value of your arrangements, in order to calculate the deposit required to secure arrangements, the applicable exchange rate at the time of quoting will apply.

Australian Dollar payments to The Classic Safari Company will then be converted to foreign currency on receipt of payment at the exchange rate on the day payment clears in our bank account.

Any further US Dollar balance due will then be recalculated from US Dollars to Australian Dollars at the applicable exchange rate at the time of further payment.

Should there be further fluctuations between advising the Australian Dollar payments due and receiving the monies in The Classic Safari Company’s bank account, the invoice will be adjusted to reflect such fluctuations.

When purchasing currency, the Bank Sell rate is used – i.e. the bank is ‘selling you USD’. This is a different figure to that quoted in the press which is the Bank Buy rate.

The Classic Safari Company does have a United States Dollar account should you prefer to make payment by direct deposit into this account. Note we do not accept USD cheques. Signing the company Booking Form and/or payment of your deposit indicates acceptance of this process.

Quoting, Pricing, Invoicing and

Foreign Currency Policy

Our quoting policy is based on the principle that the bulk of your costs are pre-paid, meaning there will be minimal costs on the ground once you are travelling. Consider this when reviewing the quote as the total inclusions are comparable and on par with that of a quality holiday anywhere else in the world.

Extras tend to be visas, items of a personal nature, gratuities, activities not pre-booked, imported wines and liquors and meals in towns and cities when accommodation is based on a bed and breakfast basis.

The quote/invoice is broken down into:

Land arrangements – this section details the activities, accommodation, the transfers, charter flights, park fees and flying doctor services included. Accommodation in our preferred camps and lodges (apart from the city hotels) is normally quoted on an all inclusive basis (accommodation, meals, local drinks, game activities & services of professional guides, park fees, and often laundry). Furthermore, road and charter transfers to and from the camps are also included and these can be substantial especially if you are flying between camps. Often the only access to the wilderness is by plane as the road infrastructure is not always suitable for timely travel.

Air arrangements – this section details the international & regional sectors required to undertake the safari. Airport & airline taxes are included but are subject to change at the time of ticketing.

Extras – this section details such items as travel insurance, accessories and so forth.

A summary of the Total Costs and a payment schedule is located at the very bottom of the Quote/Invoice. To confirm a booking we require a 30% non-refundable deposit of the total land arrangements. To this we add the cost of insurance and gorilla permits (if applicable) as these have to be paid for at the time of confirmation. The Quote/Invoice also highlights the inclusions and exclusions, along with the important conditions attached to your itinerary and booking a safari.

Payment will be accepted by cash, cheque, money order or direct deposit. We also accept Mastercard, Visa and American Express credit card payments. Payments by Visa and Mastercard will incur an additional processing fee of 2%. Payments by American Express will incur an additional processing fee of 3%. These fees are calculated on the total transaction value.
