I'm considering booking soon and am curious. Thanks

I bought the trip in a charity auction which included the animal trophy fees. I just paid extra to bring Mrs. Thugbuster along. Look up Cheetah Safaris on line. I think all prices are posted there. I'll IM you some contact info for third local US rep as well as other contacts in South Africa. Please bear with me for a couple of days. I'm prepping for knee surgery this week, so I'll be spending a lot of time on my lap top...lol.

ETA I see you are in Texas. The local contact is in Houston. I'll send you his contact info soon.

Awesome! Thanks man. I checked out their website and sent them a request for info and prices for what I'm interested for this trip.

Any help with a local contact would be fantastic!

Probably because this thread is popping up in Active Topics.

I like it, have one like it in my living room. Be careful not to trip on the edges, the welting on yours looks like mine, has a little curl to it. It will relax a bit over time though.
