The 4WD vehicles used by Lagoon Camp are open-roofed as well as open-sided which allows for un-obscured wildlife photography. However, please be aware that when all six guest seats are occupied not everyone will have a 'window' seat. We would therefore recommend a private vehicle and guide for avid photographers as this is a relatively inexpensive addition at Kwando Camps. It also means photographers can dictate the focus of game drives and the time spent at each sighting. - View lodge details

Kwara uses unroofed open-sided vehicles for unobstructed wildlife photography. Hiring a private vehicle and guide here is relatively inexpensive and is highly recommended for keen photographers so you can dictate the focus of the game drives and the length of time spent at each sighting. In addition, the boat trip to the heronry at Xobega offers great opportunities for some close-up shots of storks, herons, egrets, ibis and other bird species. - View lodge details

Zarafa Camp is part owned by the wildlife photographers – Derek & Beverly Joubert – and hence the camp caters particularly well to photographers. Each tent has a Canon D40 digital camera, with 35-135mm and 100-400mm Canon lenses, a backpack, a tripod and memory cards. A computer is available, and guests receive a complementary CD with the images that they took. Serious photographers can also book a private vehicle. - View lodge details

The Jao Flats are one of the most picturesque areas of the Okavango Delta: here you'll find picture-postcard scenery of endless smooth green floodplains, dotted with photogenic little islands sprouting feathery date palms. So for pictures of the Okavango at its best – combined with some stunning wildlife, and a stylish camp – camps don't come much better than Jao. - View lodge details

As with most of the Okavango's camps, Shinde offers the keen photographer endless material on wildlife, big and small. For a stunning example of what's possible, see Dave Lawrence's beautiful photography gallery from a trip that he made with Expert Africa in late 2006. - View lodge details

The safari vehicles at Little Kwara are open-topped and open-sided offering a 180 degree view, ideal for photography. In addition the excursion to the fantastic heronry at Gcodikwe offers great opportunities for some close-up, eye-level shots of all kinds of storks, herons and other bird species from the top deck of the double decker boat. - View lodge details

The game vehicles used by DumaTau are open-sided which makes them particularly suited to wildlife photography. In addition, the guides are excellent at finding a good spot to photograph and positioning the vehicle – I particularly appreciated the fact they found a shady spot – much needed when photographing animals in the sun! - View lodge details

With keen guides who really work hard for game sightings, Lebala's a very good camp for photographers. As an excellent example, see Dave Lawrence's beautiful photography galley from a trip that he made with Expert Africa in late 2006. - View lodge details

Two guides at Savuti (Grant and Kani) are both highly talented photographers in their own right (they were featured in the December / January 2010/11 issue of National Geographic). For keen photographers, being guided by two experts will be a real draw to Savuti. - View lodge details

The game-densities, varied birdlife, fertile soils and text-book examples of Delta environments make Mombo a photographer's paradise. Private vehicles are also available (at additional cost) giving you complete flexibility in where and when you want to go. - View lodge details
