Best Places in Africa for Luxury Safari Holidays and Wildlife Photography
Planning a luxury safari holiday where you get the opportunity to capture some amazing wildlife shots? Africa is a photographer’s playground where you can make the most of your safaris while you capture some excellent wildlife shots packed with stunning landscapes, changing light and unique animal behaviour.
My Favourite Places: Muchenje
Botswana has more elephants than anywhere else in the world, and Chobe National Park has more elephants than anywhere else in Botswana, so if you like elephants, there’s only one place to go! I’ve been four times now, and my last three trips were to Muchenje Safari Lodge, which is one of my favourite places for wildlife photography.
Mr Nick Goes to Botswana
What did I see on my trip to Muchenje Safari Lodge in Botswana? Well, not much—apart from leopards, lions, a bateleur eagle and 20 male impalas chasing a single female!
Muchenje...again!
Elephants, leopards, wild dogs, roan and sable antelopes, lions attacking a baby elephant, boat rides, lovely people, another beef Wellington, but problems with my camera and not as many bee-eaters as I’d hoped. That was the story of my second trip to Muchenje Safari Lodge in Botswana—this time in the dry season.
Muchenje
Little bee-eaters, Portakabins, elephants, boat rides, more little bee-eaters, an FA Cup final, lovely people, a lunar eclipse, more elephants and a beef Wellington. That just about sums up my trip to Muchenje Safari Lodge in Botswana!
