Destinations
“Chasing the perfect picture”
Botswana boasts some of the most diverse wildlife experiences in Africa. Although most the country lies on the Kalahari Desert basin, the waters from Angola makes the destinations here lush and rich with wildlife. Some of the wildlife destinations here include the Okavango Delta, Moremi Game Reserve, Central Kalahari Game Reserve, the Chobe and Makgadikgadi National parks. The country boasts the highest populations of both elephants and African Wild dogs. The activities on offer are just as diverse; from dugout canoe trips, game drives and walking safaris. For keen birders, the Okavango Delta is a great place to search for rarities such as the Pel’s fishing owl.

Zimbabwe & Zambia
From Victoria Falls to the vast open plains of Busanga, this region is blessed with great destinations. South Luangwa is arguably Zambia’s best wildlife viewing destination. The area is renowned for high concentrations of leopard as well as great walking safaris. In Zimbabwe, the iconic Hwange National Park is a photographer’s dream. High concentrations of elephants during the dry season are a major draw. Besides the elephants, the park offers great lion experiences with several prides inhabiting the ancient riverbeds and open plains. This region also offers great opportunities for Sable antelopes; often elusive in other areas. For birders, Zambia also offers opportunities to find Southern crowned cranes.
East Africa
This block encompasses Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda and Uganda. The landscapes quite varied, as are the activities on offer. The Serengeti and the Masai Mara offer incredible wildlife experiences by game drives. The wildebeest migration is truly a spectacle to be experienced. Depending on the time of the year, one could watch this spectacle unfold and even experience the coveted river crossings where large crocodiles line up to hunt the antelopes as they cross. Depending on budget, one could follow the migration from various established camps or on more rustic mobile camps. Rwanda and Uganda offer unparalleled primate experience. Top of the list are the mountain gorillas. These are found in both countries and there are several lodges that will offer the hiking experience to see the gorillas. Besides these, there are several other primates that may not be found elsewhere. These include golden monkeys, various colobus species among others. For keen birders, east Africa is a paradise, with over a thousand species. Some of the more elusive ones include the African Shoebill and the Green-breasted pitta.
