3 Days Tanzania Photograph Safari to Serengeti Safari

You will have the chance to photograph the famous Big Five and the vast herds of the Great Migration across the golden plains. The central region is particularly good for big cats like leopards and lions resting on granite kopjes. Your guide will position the vehicle to ensure you get the best angles and lighting for your shots.

While more time is always better, 2 nights allow for four major game drives during the golden hours of sunrise and sunset. This timeframe is strategically planned to put you in the right place when the light is most dramatic and animals are most active. Many professional photographers find this duration perfect for a high-intensity shoot of specific species.

Our 4x4 Land Cruisers are modified with beanbags and stable window mounts to support your heavy lenses. Each car features a pop-up roof for 360 degree views and internal charging ports to keep your batteries full throughout the day. We also provide plenty of space so you can easily move your gear around for the perfect angle.

A sunrise balloon flight is a spectacular extra that offers a unique aerial perspective of the savannah and its inhabitants. It is a fantastic way to capture wide-angle landscape shots of the migration from above the clouds. After landing, you will enjoy a champagne breakfast which is also a great candid photo opportunity.

We can alter the daily routes to spend more time in areas known for cheetah hunts or leopard sightings if that is your primary goal. Since the tour is private, you can stay at a single sighting for as long as you need to get the perfect frame. Just discuss your vision with our expert guides at the start of your journey.

The dry season from June to October offers clear skies and excellent visibility for long-distance shots of animals at waterholes. However, the green season from January to March provides lush backgrounds and dramatic storm clouds for moody landscape photography. Both seasons offer unique lighting conditions that will make your portfolio stand out.

We select high-quality tented camps that are located right in the heart of the action to minimize travel time to the best spots. These camps offer solar power for your laptops and cameras so you can review your images every evening. Sleeping close to the wildlife also allows for early departures to catch the very first light of the day.

Our guides are trained to understand the importance of lighting direction and animal behavior to help you anticipate the action. They are patient and will wait for the perfect moment without rushing you to the next sighting. Their deep knowledge of the terrain ensures you spend more time behind the lens and less time searching.

You should bring a telephoto lens of at least 300mm for distant wildlife and a wide angle lens for the breathtaking African landscapes. Extra memory cards and batteries are essential as you will likely take hundreds of photos every day. A dust cover for your camera body is also highly recommended to protect your gear from the fine savannah silt.

All mandatory national park entry fees and government taxes are fully covered in the initial cost of your 3-day adventure. You will not have to deal with any administrative tasks at the gate which gives you more time to focus on your art. We handle all the logistics so your transition into the wilderness is seamless and stress-free.
