What a Newfoundland moose hunt costs

Guided moose hunt packages commonly run in the several-thousand-dollar range per hunter. Where a given hunt lands depends mostly on length, lodge and guide ratio.

We don't quote a single price here because packages vary too much between outfitters and years. Use this page to compare quotes on a like-for-like basis, and get the final price in writing from the outfitter.

What drives the price

  • Length. Many hunts are sold as week-long or six-day packages. Shorter or longer hunts are priced accordingly.
  • Lodge or camp. A main lodge with a cook usually costs more than a remote tent or cabin camp, and fly-in or boat-in access adds cost.
  • Guide ratio. One guide per hunter (1:1) usually costs more than one guide shared between two hunters (2:1).
  • Combination hunts. Adding black bear or caribou changes the package and the licences involved.
  • Currency and taxes. Check whether a quote is in Canadian or US dollars and whether taxes are included.

Usually included

These are commonly part of a package, but confirm each one:

  • Your non-resident big game licence, arranged through the outfitter
  • A licensed guide for the length of the hunt
  • Lodging at the lodge or camp
  • Meals while in camp
  • Transport between camp and the hunting area

Often extra

  • Flights to Newfoundland and any charter or float plane to camp
  • Meat handling, cutting, wrapping and shipping or storage
  • Taxidermy, trophy preparation and export paperwork
  • Hotel nights before and after the hunt
  • Tips for guides and camp staff
  • Firearm rental, if you are not bringing your own

Questions to ask every outfitter

  • What exactly is included, and what will I pay on top?
  • What is the guide ratio, and what is the camp like?
  • What is the deposit, and what is the cancellation policy?
  • What happens to the meat, and what does handling cost?
