The total experience was great
The total experience was great. The Kennerknecht’s are a great family and run a great business. They were very helpful and accommodating after I booked the trip. The staff at the Amakela Lodge was first class and the chef (Niko) prepared 4 or 5 star type meals every day. The wing shooting was first class and the big game hunting was very exciting. The lodge itself was awesome!

Team Montana
This experience was once in a lifetime for us. We were prepared for the experience well from all the pre-trip recommendations. Airline travel was no fun but upon arrival were greeted with excitement from the team and felt like long lost friends immediately. The location was something right out of the movies in places you would dream to hunt. The opportunity for any hunting experience you wanted was available. Felt like home away from home. Lodging and food were top notch. Anyone should experience this once for sure!

We’re blushing hearing you describe the Canterbury landscape as movie-worthy—those South Island views are something else! It’s fantastic to hear the hunting opportunities, top-notch lodging, and delicious food made it feel like a home away from home. We’d love for you to come back and relive the magic anytime!

Good communication
Good communication. Lots of email traffic. I do not recommend the travel agent they suggest. What a disaster and we travel a lot. All in all, Charity Safaris was good and the hunt with Avon Valley in New Zealand was awesome.

Price Changes
This year we had Charity Safaris donate to our silent auction. We did sell the Argentina trip Hunt A. Unfortunately, some of their prices in the packets have not been up to date. Luckily the customer who purchased reached out to them with their concern and they honored the given price that was shown on the posters they provided. These people are paying good money for these trips and they need to make sure things are shown correctly. Overall this was a cool experience and gained lots of interests.

The trip was unbelievable
The trip was unbelievable. Gerrie and his team exceeded my wildest expectations. He went above and beyond to make sure I had the trip of a lifetime. I went with a wish list of four animals, and he worked to the last minute to ensure I got every one of them. We got the waterbuck in the last hour of daylight on the last day (third gold metal animal of the trip). More importantly, I got the full hunting experience I hoped for. The long days of tracking, hearing lions roar, walking up on a fresh leopard kill and much more. I have attached some pictures. Greatly appreciate all of your assistance and I look forward to making a return trip with Theron Safaris.
