TENTED ADVENTURES

 
Photo and Filming Adventures

Tailormade Safaris puts together trips into different Southern African areas with a focus on photography and filming. From the hippo encounters in South Luangwa to the interactions with elephants in Mana Pools National Park we know exactly where to be and when, in order to afford our guests the best opportunities to put their photography and filming into practice.

With experienced guides and photographers, we cater and are able to offer a unique opportunity for those looking to capture the moments that the African paradise has to offer on film. We make all the ground arrangements for professional film crews at the same time catering for the semi professional photographers and filmmakers wanting to enjoy, photography and filming in the “Dark Continent”. Tailormade safaris will ensure that you have a knowledgeable specialist for the different footage and shots that you seek.

The new Tailormade Photo Pack
With our experience in organising private guided photographic safaris we realised how with the opportunity they encounter and the skill of either a fellow traveller or their guide, guests get excited and driven to learn more about photography and often wish that them or another person in the party had invested in more appropriate camera equipment before the safari. Some enthusiasts also like to keep track of the distances they travel and record different sightings. There have also been cases of guests missing out on prime opportunities because their camera decides not to function. We have the ultimate solution to these situations. On our private guided safaris, we offer our guests the option to carry a photo pack with the following equipment for use by guests that may be interested. Please advise us at the time of booking if you are interested so we can confirm availability.

Canon EOS 40D Camera Body
Canon 100-400mm F1:4.5-5.6 Image Stabilised lens
Canon 17 -85mm Image Stabilised wide angle lens
Camera cleaning kit
Swarovski/Leica 8 x 32 Binoculars
Garmin GPSmap60c GLOBAL Positioning System
Lightweight Headlamp
Lightweight Bean Bag

*This is a new and exciting idea and we ask that guests look after the equipment as if it were their own in order to ensure that as many guests as possible benefit from it.

If you would like to hire more advanced or different equipment for the duration or part of your safari please do not hesitate to contact us for recommendations.
