Botswana Elephant — 10 Days
Botswana
À propos de cette chasse
Hunting territory: Chobe District / Okavango fringe (CH/2, GH3 blocks)
Habitat: Mopane woodland, floodplain edge
Botswana reopened elephant hunting on strict quota. Hunts are almost entirely on foot in mopane woodland bordering Chobe National Park or the Okavango — one of Africa's highest elephant-density landscapes.
This is a single-species package by design: elephant safaris are priced and licenced per bull, not mixed with plains game on the same quote. Exportable tusks require CITES and Botswana Parks permits — confirm your outfitter handles paperwork.
Typical all-inclusive quote: US$54,500–$55,800 (1×1 hunter, trophy fees included where noted by outfitters). Chobe/Okavango 10-day exportable elephant packages at US$54,500–55,800 all-in on 2025–26 broker lists; Botswana government elephant permit (~US$7,700) is often quoted separately — confirm with outfitter.
