About our Photography Tour
Our Photography Tour is Designed for an outstanding wildlife watching & photography experience.
All our tours operate at an Easy pace that we believe is necessary for good wildlife watching and photography. Thus we give more time at each place, instead of hopping around from place to place. Wildlife in our experience requires time and patience.
Each tour itinerary is simple and needs minimum travel outside the forest. We spend the maximum time possible on safari watching and photographing wildlife.
A tour with us will allow you to explore and know the place and its inhabitants.
Private Guided Tour
All our tours (unless mentioned) are private guided tours with a very tiny group of nature lovers. The average group size is usually 2 or 3 people and not more than 4.
Advantages To Photographers
Beginners or Amateur Photographers can learn a lot in the field from the accompanying wildlife photographer. They can also gain a lot of in-the-field insight and practical tips about wildlife photography and animal behavior.
Professional photographers benefit from the experience of the accompanying photographer about the place and the wildlife. This improves the chances of a great photograph by being in the right place and position.
Best Time For Wildlife
We understand that the Best possible time to watch & photograph wildlife is the early mornings and late evenings when animal activity is at its highest, and the soft golden light creates great images. Hence, we enter the forest as soon as the park gates open in the morning and stay late in the evening before the park gate closes.
Safari Timings vary in each park depending on the seasons and the park officials. The morning safari starts around sunrise or earlier and the afternoon safari ends around sunset.
What To Expect
In the parks, there are two safaris or game drives in each day. One in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Also, we book the best zones/areas of the park to maximize our chances.
This will give plenty of opportunities to watch & photograph a lot of animals in the park.
Who Can Join This Tour?
Any person interested in seeing or photographing wildlife of the park, along with 1 or 2 other like-minded people.
