5 Days Luxury Tanzania Photography Safari Nyerere and Mikumi

Begin the luxury photography journey with a road transfer from Dar es Salaam to Nyerere.

Photograph hippos, crocodiles, elephants along the riverbanks and waterbirds from the water while working with reflections, river scenery and afternoon light. Return to camp in the evening to review images and prepare for the next day's photography.

Around the lakes, work with reflections, waterbirds and wildlife approaching the shoreline. The extended game drive allows more time to observe animal behavior and work with different compositions rather than moving quickly between sightings.
