During the 14 day wildlife adventure you will have the best opportunity to do a wide variety of wildlife photography. Not only will you have dedicated training sessions on wildlife photography but you will also get the opportunity to take photographs in different regions of Southern Africa, each with its own typography and animals.
The workshop tour starts in the Sabi Sands game reserve which is part of the greater Kruger Park. This area is known for its leopards and you will be able to take some beautiful photographs of them. The second game reserve is in the Karongwe Reserve where they have built 2 water-level hides. You will get the opportunity to capture wildlife across the water in purpose built game hides guaranteeing exceptional photographs of antelope and birds.
The next region is in the Tuli Game reserve in Botswana that is known for their elephants and lions. Again there are purpose built game hides that offer you the opportunity for beautiful wildlife photos.
Although the tour is a workshop to learn how to take beautiful wildlife photos, it is more than that! Training is given in a relaxed atmosphere giving you the time to have fun and enjoy the adventure.
