Out Of Africa Safari

    View: 
You've dreamed of a wildlife Africa safari for years " and now its finally going to happen. You see yourself taking National Geographic camera shots. You wonder how to get a close-up of a lion, the way the professionals do. But did you know that if you visit a game reserve such as Amboseli or Kenya Mara, you most likely wont even get the chance? Its strictly the rule in such places nowadays that no vehicle shall stray from the beaten track.



Now is the time to take a second look at that dinky little camera you've been using for every family vacation. Get that wildlife Africa close-up you've dreamed about without sticking your head in a lions maw or getting trampled by the annual wildebeest migration. A telephoto lens is the perfect answer. (The ideal range for safely shooting wildlife is between 300 mm. to 600 mm.)

Start Small " Stalk A Squirrel

Carrying out a few simple photography exercises and making some modifications before you ever step on the plane can improve your wildlife Africa photography results 100%.

* Carry your camera with you at all times " starting today! You never know when you'll run into a deer (not literally, we hope!). There are probably more species of wildlife in your neighborhood than you've ever realized.

# Get to know those camera buttons the way a blind man can read a book " by finding them with your fingers, not your eyes. Fumbling with buttons is not an option when a herd of wildebeest is thundering by.

# Make a note of any camera task noises (such as zoom or auto focus) that are likely to disturb your subjects. Decide how you are going to get around that before your trip to wildlife Africa.

* Invest in research ahead of time. Read up on your subjects and their habits. Photograph a lion in the safety of your neighborhood zoo.

When You're Going For The Real Thing

# Take a small bean bag, the day of your African big game shoot. (HINT: If you cant find one at your local drug store, try borrowing your granddaughters Beanie Baby.) Bean bags can be real life-savers on safari, helping your camera absorb motion when you are shooting from a jolting vehicle.

# Include panoramic long shots with landmarks and scenery, as well as zooming in for those spectacular close-ups. A single twisted tree or the sweeping plain dwarfing a herd will create atmosphere. This is what will distinguish your photographs with the unmistakable hallmark of wildlife Africa.

* Whats the one animal you want to avoid? You guessed it " the malaria-carrying mosquito. Be sure to wear protective clothing and wield that bug spray. At the very least, don't let a bite from the pesky critters wreck your shot.

Following these few practical tips may set your travel photos miles ahead from the average tourist snapshots. The more practice you get at home in snapping wildlife at a moments notice, the better your chance of getting some truly unique shots of the spectacular and varied wildlife Africa is famous for.

And don't forget to bring a good supply of memory cards!
Out Of Africa Safari
Kenya offers experiences beyond your expectations, and maybe the good part is most visitor's picture poor infrastructure and average accommodation options contrary to the surprises that awaits on arrival.

Well, what really awaits newly weds or planning an African bush wedding is a superb cultural experience that respects and values marriages, wildlife spa resorts with world class service expectations, private honeymoon suites, uncrowned tropical beaches and island. A private yacht, a private charter flight or a chopper can all be easily done.

When requesting for a honeymoon package regardless of the budget and time frame, see to it that the program includes not to be missed breathtaking countryside, landscapes and cultural experience, wildlife safaris, a champagne breakfast balloon safari over the rolling masai Mara game reserve is one unforgettable treat and finally the sandy beach and islands is a must go.

Amazingly, almost all the safari lodges and luxury camps in Kenya will have a specially laid out honeymoon suite and family rooms that remain unoccupied till the next booking. When a couple arrive in any of the game lodges and camps, word goes round and the staff will always make it their business to make the stay the most romantic African experience of your life.

They set out a candle lit dinner or take you out on a lush bush, imagine a white cloth table, silver cutlery, wine, and a five star meal for two set on a view point overlooking the masai mara plains, No big deal, they've done this many times over. To your surprise the camp staff has a way appreciating you and will come round with a cake, wine and flowers singing to celebrate you, you almost feel like it's your weeding day all over. The Masai warrior dances with lit touches is your dinner entertainment. Oh, that's your security too.

The arrangements are so very well co-coordinated the one thing you are not to do is forget your camera.

Facilities in the luxury exclusive tents include butler service, classic elegance with highly polished floors, and crisp linen clad, wooden-framed beds cooled by the rhythm of ceiling fans. Glass walled showers, twin hand basins and a separate flush w.c are en suite with forest views. Some come with a private small swimming pool overlooking the plains and beyond. This will make you feel like just sitting back and enjoying the Africa sounds.

Most units will come with a dramatic backdrop, exceptional standards of service from the warm, treasure-trove of beautiful antiques, books and memorabilia reflecting the ambience of and original 20s and 30s safari setting. A Private verandah and a hammock which sometimes doubles as a private dinning option. Private guided cultural or nature walks are a good way to stretch your legs if you feel you've been over pampered.

On arrival in the capital city of Nairobi it's always good to stay in for a night especially after that long haul flight. Accommodation in Nairobi ranges from 5 star world class hotels to small and private ones. The distance to the nature reserves is usually less that 4 hours and there is always the option of taking the scheduled flights that services almost all the reserves in Kenya.

The coast is where you refresh again, forget your shoes buy a colorful ?Kikoy? and enjoy a peaceful haven away.

Lamu Island is a favorite to many, rent a private catered house or take the self-catering option and buy fresh fish and vegetables from the venders, then lay back the whole day on the roof top deck, make sure you remain there for the sun set its one of the most beautiful site. Swim with dolphins, take a traditional dhow across the channel, scuba dive, visit the old town and get a bargain on the suveniuors and walk.

After your five or six nights in Lamu, you can now fetch your shoes and take a 30 minutes flight to Diani beach. Here the pace is a notch higher. Night life, optional exotic restaurants and maybe a massage will revive back your senses.

Regardless of your budget, the options are all laid out. The two or three weeks vacation is one bunch of treasured memorable experience, rest assured you can never go wrong.
