I cannot promise anything, but we always try and convince the hosts to accept a 16th vehicle, in case no-one on the list of the first 15 cancels.
Dink jy moet Peter op die reserve lys sit. Anders gaan ons nie mooi foto's van die naweek he nie... :mytwocents: :lol:

Sorrie man, maar "hopelik" & "gaan nie nou belowe nie" het nie definitief genoeg vir my geklink om op die lys te plaas nie.
Daar is totdusver 15 wat bevestig het vir definitief.
Het Piet sedertdien vir jou gese hy gaan definitief?

m) Marius Vorster (certificate: Marius Vorster)
n) Anton Mamba (certificate: Anton Schutte)
o) Stefaansie (certificate: Andre Vorster)

Reserve list:
a) Manie Lombaard
b) ....
c) ....

Maximum reached. Booking confirmed
However there are places available on the reserve list in case of cancellations.

Further details:

Price is 750 per vehicle, not per person. And this is what you get for it:

a) Camping at base on the Friday night, with hot water facilities.
b) A guide in front and back for Saturday and Sunday's driving.
c) On Saturday lunch is provided. The guide will braai boerewors rolls. You can also have "seconds". This is for every person (incl passengers, even though the price is per vehicle).
d) Guides also carry water tanks for those that wish to shower at the viewpoint on the Saturday night (so the Boegman clan need not bring the 500 liter tank)
e) Guides also make the fire for Saturday night.
f) Guides make pap & sous for Saturday night.

So essentially you only need to arrange for dinner on Friday night, breakfast on Saturday morning, a piece of meat for the fire on Saturday night, and breakfast on Sunday morning.
If you bring three mates along, it is four people per vehicle, but the price per vehicle remains the same (R750).
That will work out to be 184,50 per person, excl fuel.

On the down side:
We need to pay deposit by 3 October (at the very latest) - which is 100% of the price.
This is at least for 10 vehicles, since this the minimum that they require on the trail.
The reason for this is because they used to work on a 10% deposit, but had numerous late cancellations, and losing out on others that wanted to come.
But I think given what we get for it, this is still very reasonable requirement.

One more thing:
You get a certificate when completing the bundu trail on Sunday.
The name on the certificate can be anything you want, but you need to specify it.
If you want the name on your certificate to be anything other than you proper real name and surname, as it appears in the forum details, let me know., Rather by PM, to avoid too much clutter on this thread.

Hi Guys, I am now the owner of a game lodge (you can google it Siyaya lodge) which is just down the road from Rust de Winter and in the Dinokeng big five reserve, if any of your better halfs are not keen to camp on top of the hill I am happy to give forum member a special rate at the lodge (this will also be true for any time of year for forum members) Just drop them off at the lodge on the way out and pick them up on the way back :thumbup: :thumbup:

Something to consider...
If it is that close, perhaps one can stay over the night before, or after the Rust de Winter trip - those who have the time.
Else perhaps on a different weekend, just a forum GTG kuier at your game lodge?
