Dear Hunting Friends
Welcome to Take Aim Safaris’ 99th newsletter and mid-season hunting update from Lotsane Safaris Botswana.
Over the last 5 years since we took over and expanded Lotsane Safaris we have extensively marketed our property and the Tuli Block of Botswana globally as a hunting destination. Plains game hunting on private game ranches in Botswana is not as well known as it is in South Africa and Namibia yet the industry in Botswana is gaining momentum and is even thriving thanks to properties like Lotsane Safaris and others. Most of you reading this have hunted in South Africa and/or Namibia.
We invite you to try something new: the Lotsane Safaris hunting ranch is for most hunters in a new hunting country, Botswana. Botswana is a super safe country to visit on holiday. I encourage you not only to hunt with us but also to spend more time in Botswana visiting the national parks while you are here.
We have priced our hunts competitively to build our client and agent database, making Lotsane Safaris the obvious choice for plains game hunting in Southern Africa. We own a large ranch featuring abundant animals, great hunting, excellent food, and professional staff. We provide clients with high-quality hunting vehicles and the best rifles money can buy for their use. Below is our 2026 pricelist. We have a few hunts available for this year, contact me for date options. If you book your 2027 hunt during 2026 we will use this pricelist for your 2027 hunt.
We offer three accommodation styles: a basic bush camp, a luxury lodge and a luxury tented camp on the banks of the Limpopo River. We can send you a full portfolio of photos of all three accommodation options. Please email us, and we will be happy to send you the information.
Traveling to Lotsane Safaris is super easy, we offer three travel options: 1. Land in Johannesburg where we will collect you and drive you to Lotsane, 550 kilometers. 2. Land in Gaborone where we will collect you and drive you to Lotsane, 330 kilometers away. 3. Arrive at Lotsane via private air charter on our private landing strip, clearing customs into Botswana is super easy in all 3 instances. We recommend a 7- to 10-day hunt with us.
Lotsane Safaris can also offer you elephant, leopard and plains game hunting at CT27, the largest hunting concession in Botswana, which directly adjoins the Lotsane Safaris game ranch. Please contact me for more information about big game hunting in Botswana.
We value your enquiry no matter how big or small and we welcome you to Lotsane no matter where you come from. Agents, hunters, Outfitters and PHs, please contact me to arrange your access to our hunting areas in the Tuli Block of Botswana.
