Thank you for Postponing – We look forward to seeing you in Africa when all this is over…

27th April 2020
John X Safaris

Like you, the safari industry has been severely impacted by Covid-19. Not only will the associated restrictions cause implications in your daily lives, businesses and travel schedules, it will have a huge impact on the lives and livelihoods of those working in the safari industry. The recent rains throughout Southern Africa bodes well for our wildlife, but even their existence will be dependent on a sustainable value, and the continuation thereof. Protecting and sustaining Africa’s wildlife and its communities cannot stop. The costs are real and we are up for the fight.

The past few days has seen a turn for the positive around the world. It does seem that the tide against Covid-19 is turning. Many of you have contacted us about your safari, some of you would have been in Africa at this very moment enjoying your adventure, but alas we have been forced to adapt and postpone. In saying that we want to highlight and thank those hunters who have stuck with Africa, her people and her wildlife. Without your continued support we will not make it through this.

To those who have upcoming adventures, and who are yet to make their final decision for 2020, bar a travel restriction, please stick to your original plans. Our above video and message is one of gratitude and sincerity. We look forward to your arrival and sharing a campfire in Africa.

Thanking you in hunting,

Carl van Zyl
