Join Mike Wilkes FRPS and myself in Tanzania 2011

25/03/10

Together with my old friend Mike Wilkes FRPS I will be running a 15 night photography trip to Tanzania leaving on February 5th 2011 and returning back to the UK on February 20th. We fly via Amsterdam and there is an option to leave on the 4th and stay overnight in Amsterdam which saves a very early start from the UK on the 5th.

This will be a full on photography trip with 13 action packed days of photography in some of the best game parks in Africa. We will be visiting the Serengeti, Lake Manyara & Tarangire National Parks together with the Ngorongoro Crater and the Ndutu Plains.

Our visit is timed to see the Great Migration which is usually in Ndutu & The Serengeti at this time of the year. We will stay in good quality lodges with some great food and we will also have the services of some of the top driver guides in Tanzania.

The trip will suit all skill levels and Mike and I will be there to help and advise the less experienced. If the numbers allow we will have a seperate teaching truck together with trucks for the more experienced. We will have three or four trucks, all with radios which allows each truck to be independent when on safari. This is very important as each truck can pick and choose where to go and how much time to spend with each subject. It also means that between the trucks we will be able to cover more ground giving us a better chance to find the more exciting subjects.

The price based on sharing a twin room with three to four people per truck is £3,600. Single rooms may be available for an extra £500.

All food and drinking water is included in the price from day 2 to 14 plus breakfast and lunch on day 15. The flights are extra and will be approximately £750. Bar drinks, tips and laundry is not included.
