BESPOKE PHOTO SAFARIS IN TANZANIA
Experience Tanzania through a photographer’s eyes
I organize bespoke photographic safaris in Tanzania for travellers who want more than a standard itinerary.
These journeys are designed for people who love wildlife, light, landscapes and real moments in nature — with the time, flexibility and calm atmosphere needed to truly enjoy photography.
Whether you are an experienced photographer or simply want to return home with exceptional images and memories, I will help you build the right route, the right rhythm, and the right locations for your goals.
What makes my safaris different
Crowd-free experiences
Every bespoke photographic safari is carefully timed and routed to minimise vehicle density and avoid peak pressure whenever possible—creating quieter, more intimate encounters with wildlife and landscapes.Photography-first approach
This is not a checklist safari. We stay longer at sightings, explore multiple angles, wait for the right light, and focus on behaviour and visual storytelling—allowing your images to develop naturally.Bespoke itineraries
Each journey is designed from the ground up around your interests and photographic goals. From Northern Tanzania—Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Serengeti—to more unusual routes such as Lake Natron, Mkomazi, and remote landscapes, there is no fixed template.
High-quality guiding & logistics
A bespoke safari must feel effortless. Comfort, safety, and reliability are ensured through trusted local partners, professional guiding standards, and well-planned logistics—so you can focus entirely on photography.
Real moments, real nature
Respectful wildlife viewing is fundamental. By allowing animals to behave naturally and avoiding unnecessary pressure, you gain access to authentic moments and the opportunity to capture images with meaning and depth.
Ideal for…
- Wildlife photographers (beginner to advanced)
- Couples and small private groups
- Nature lovers looking for a calmer, premium safari experience
- Travellers who want unique routes beyond the “crowded classics”
- Guests combining safari + beach (e.g., Zanzibar extension)
What you can expect
- A safari paced around light, wildlife behaviour and photography time
- Strong opportunities for elephants, big cats, birds, and iconic landscapes
- Quiet mornings, golden evenings, and unforgettable sightings
- A personalized journey built around your expectations and comfort level
A shared photographic experience
I personally travel with the group, sharing real field experience, photographic evolution, and lessons learned over more than 30 years of African safaris. This exchange happens naturally throughout the journey — in the vehicle, at sightings, and during relaxed moments at the lodge.
