Masai Mara Tours – A photographer’s paradise. Come embark on this adventure of a lifetime with me as we go in search of creating awesome frames. Masai Mara is everything – herbivores, carnivores, reptiles, birds, landscapes, and much much more. The light is magical and throws an array of vivid hues for us to get that unique capture.

  • This tour is for anyone who wants an awesome wildlife experience.

  • Someone who just loves to sit back and enjoy the wild without the camera is also most welcome.

  • If you are a beginner in photography or have some experience with the camera, this is the ideal tour for you, as you would be capturing some great action shots, hunt sequences & portraits of the big cats.
