Safaris for Photographers
Photography safaris are about time at sightings, not distance covered. These itineraries prioritize light, position, and the patience to wait for the shot.
What to expect
- Private vehicle with no sharing
- Extended time at sightings (no "tick and move")
- Early starts for golden hour light
- Guides who understand photographer needs
Things to consider
- Higher cost due to private vehicle requirement
- Less ground covered per day
- May require longer overall trip duration
