What to Expect on Your Sabi Sands Photo Safari
-
Guided Big 5 Game Drives: Photograph all five of Africa’s most iconic species, lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, and buffalo, in their natural habitat. Sabi Sands is renowned for its consistent Big 5 sightings and unparalleled leopard encounters. With expert guides and trackers, your drives are timed around the best light, animal movement, and your specific photographic goals.
-
Small Group Safari Experience: Enjoy private or semi-private vehicles, with no more than six guests per drive. This ensures you have ample space to move, compose, and shoot without obstruction. Your guides are trained in positioning for light and behavior, helping you anticipate key wildlife moments and capture them effectively.
-
Off-Road Access for Intimate Encounters: Sabi Sands allows off-road tracking, bringing you closer to elusive subjects like leopards on the hunt or rhinos on the move. This freedom of movement sets it apart from many national parks and allows for unforgettable close-range photography of predators, herbivores, and more.
-
Exclusive Lodge-Based Access: We partner with select high-end lodges like Savanna or Dulini, located on private concessions within Sabi Sands. These properties provide not only luxurious accommodation, but also direct access to some of the most productive wildlife zones in the region, far from crowds, and fully tailored for photographers.
