Are you a photography enthusiast looking for an adventure of a lifetime? Look no further than Tanzania! From the vast plains of the Serengeti to the sparkling waters of Lake Manyara, and from the towering peaks of Kilimanjaro to the bustling markets of Stone Town, Tanzania is a photographer's paradise. Join us on a Tanzania photographic safari and discover the beauty, wildlife, and culture through the lens of your camera.
The country is home to a wide range of iconic species, including the "Big Five" (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros) as well as many other fascinating animals such as giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and hyenas. Tanzania's national parks and reserves offer excellent opportunities for wildlife photography. To capture the best wildlife shots, it is recommended to use a long telephoto lens, and a sturdy tripod, and to be patient and observant while waiting for the perfect moment.
From the vast savannahs of the Serengeti to the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania's landscapes are nothing short of breathtaking. Other popular destinations for landscape photography include the Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Victoria, and Lake Manyara National Park. The country's vibrant and colourful sunsets and sunrises are also popular subjects for landscape photographers. To capture the best landscape shots, it is recommended to visit during the dry season (June to October) when the skies are clear and the light is optimal for photography.
Tanzania is a bird-watching paradise, with over 1,100 species of birds found in the country, making it an ideal destination for bird photographers. The diverse habitats, including forests, savannahs, wetlands, and coastal areas, provide a wide range of bird species for Tanzania photographic Safari. The national parks and reserves are prime bird-watching locations, with the Serengeti, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara being popular destinations for bird photographers.
Tanzania offers some of the best underwater photography opportunities in the world, with its clear waters, diverse marine life, and stunning coral reefs. Zanzibar, Mafia Island, and Pemba Island are popular destinations for underwater photography, with each offering spectacular opportunities to capture the beauty of Tanzania's underwater world. To capture the best underwater shots, it is recommended to use a high-quality underwater camera with a wide-angle lens, to have good buoyancy control, and to follow responsible diving and snorkelling practices.
Tanzania Photographic Safari is led by experienced and knowledgeable guides who understand the needs and requirements of photographers and provide guidance and support to help them capture the best shots. Premier photographic safaris offer luxurious accommodations and services, ensuring that guests can relax and enjoy their photographic adventure in comfort and style. Some of the most popular premier photographic safaris in Tanzania include the Serengeti Photographic Safari, the Ngorongoro Crater Photographic Safari, and the Zanzibar Underwater Photographic Safari.
On the other hand, independent photographic safaris are a great way for photographers to explore Tanzania on their own terms and capture the images that they desire. These safaris offer flexibility and freedom, allowing photographers to create their own itineraries and spend as much time as they need in each location to capture the perfect shots. However, it is essential to have a good understanding of the country, its culture, and the wildlife before embarking on an independent photographic safari.
However, Hiring a local guide or joining a photography workshop can help to ensure that photographers have the necessary support and knowledge to navigate the country and capture the best shots. Our custom Tanzania photographic safari is aimed towards the exact needs and flexible timetable of our guests with a professional photographer in your preferred wilderness in Tanzania.
