Courses are run in association with Africa Photographic Services and are open to novices, keen amateurs, and experienced photographers.

Any make of camera may be used and a survey is sent out prior to each safari to determine specific interests, types of equipment and levels of experience. This is to enable a photographic experience tailored to each guest’s needs.

Nikon and Canon photographic equipment can be rented by prior arrangement and a limited range of accessories, including memory cards, can be purchased at the lodge.

As the course will cover editing photos taken, you are recommended to bring a laptop, notebook or tablet, card readers and sufficient memory cards.

The groups are very small, which means individual attention is guaranteed. All levels of photographer are catered for including in a group of varying abilities.

Dates outside the guaranteed departures can be booked at the same rates with a minimum of 4 paying photographers.

The specialised vehicle can also be booked privately on a daily basis, with or without a professional instructor.
