International Photo Safaris

 

 

 

What is a “Photo Safari”? A photo safari is like any other safari except we move at a more relaxed pace. We stop to smell the roses…and photograph them. People who join photo safaris are NOT professional photographers…they are people who like to take photographs with a range of cameras from point-and-shoot to prosumer SLRs. Some participants want to improve their photography skills with one-to-one help from a professional. Lastly, people who join photo safaris like small, personable groups.

Clock Tower photographers lead outstanding international photo safaris to some of the greatest wildlife and landscape locations worldwide.  We scout the locations, work with expert local guides and offer personalized photography instruction.  Even better, we offer you the opportunity to try out our professional gear!

There are five great reasons to choose a Clock Tower Images led photo safari.

  1. Our people: we are knowledgeable, personable, and experienced. And fun!
  2. Our tours: we have scouted the best locations and we know the right time to be there.
  3. Our accommodation and meals are first class.
  4. We care: our groups are small (generally 6-8), we provide awesome, caring attention .
  5. Our prices: compare our prices/packages with any other photo tour company!

Our photo safaris are reliably fun, educational and full of awesome photographic opportunities. Along the way we provide expert advice on all things photography and tell countless tall tales about the places we’ve been and the things we’ve photographed (note: when we talk of “shooting” things we refer specifically and exclusively to shooting with cameras!).

Chobe & Livingstone (Botswana): Photographic opportunities abound as you enjoy private game drives each morning and private boat cruises each afternoon at Chobe National Park, which has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. Then visit one of the seven wonders of the world, the incredible Victoria Falls!

 

Madagascar: This is a stunning culture and nature tour on a unique island, found just off the east coast of Africa. We visit the best locations and overnight in some of the best accommodation on the island. You will be utterly captivated by the amazing wildlife, the friendly people and the incredible landscapes.

 

Namibia: Your cameras will be busy right from the first day, when we travel from Windhoek to Sossusvlei. Stunning landscapes are populated by ostrich, zebra, gemsbok, kudu, springbok, suricate, huge social weaver’s nests, and various raptors.

This tour will take you to Nyungwe Forest, a birders paradise with 13 species of primates, and to Volcanoes National Park, the most beautiful park in the country with its rich montaine ecosystems. Hike the Virunga Mountains in search of gorillas and explore crater lakes in a traditional canoe.
