Then, enjoy cocktails, wine, appetizers, and dinner with courses inspired by the local Kiwi culture, including fresh venison, chicken, beef, vegetables, and local desserts.

These wild goats are a menace and overpopulated; they compete for available food from the game animals.

This bonus shoot is done as a group and is not available individually.
