Russian Hunting with Borzois

Day1 (Friday).
You will arrive in Moscow airport (usually not later than dinner time) where you will be greeted by our interpreter. You will have lunch at the top restaurant of Moscow. Afterwards, you will be taken to the hunting destination. On arrival, you will check in. Following your hunting tour you will be driven out on a short tour of the tourist centre. Then you will have a chance to try Russian food and be briefed on the hunting details.

Day2 (Saturday).
You get up early as this is the day of your hunting trip.
Before the hunt, you will be provided with a horse meeting your preferences and wishes. You will be given instruction and taken to the special ground where you will be briefed on the rules and how to avoid injures while hunting.

The hunt itself starts from taking the dogs out. There is a typical Russian tradition to drink a glass of vodka before the process. Afterwards, all the participants will go to the field.

The Borzois will easily catch the wolf or fox, if they see it not more than about 70 to 80 meters or so. If the animal is seen further away, for instance, 500 meters, the hunter should sneak up to the animal and then let the hounds see it.

Then dogs will run in full speed to catch it, and then the fight starts. Do not think that if the hounds approached the predator they will for sure defeat it. There is nothing guaranteed and the success of the battle is not still until the victor remains standing. You should be able to enjoy the whole process.

Whatever the result is, you will have a break at the special camp to have a meal and some free time.
Then you will continue with our adventure to capture fox or wolf once more. If the second try were successful, you would be able to take pictures with the trophy or give it as a present to your friend. Or, if you feel like that you can let this animal live and leave.

If you wish, you will have the chance to try the traditional Russian bath made with herbs.

At night, we will organize a festive supper for you, where you will be able to try the best traditional cuisine as well as food of village residents like porridge, stove-baked goods, roasted and delicious national snacks.

This day you are to pack your things, following which we will meet together and size up the hunt. We would really appreciate your opinions and suggestions.
