I doubt that anyone is hiding anything, they simply have a different price structure...The Safari business is no different than any other business, some just expect it to be.....

Some are high on trophy fees and cheap on daily rates and visa versa, others the opposite..Its up to you to figure the difference out and make a choice, nothing is criminal nor unethical about this....

There are a lot of great deals out there for the carefull planner, but there are a bunch of rotten apples in the world in every business...

Hopefully I can say without critisism that the use of a booking agent may be the best route to go, as he should have all that worked out to your benifit, but of course that is your call not ours.....
