Incredible History...
WPA has crafted over 60 tours to Africa since 2004, with more than 300 photographers enjoying the very best service, great accommodation and food, plus very experienced photo guides and local expert guides. Your photography comes first!
BOTSWANA - the adventure ...
Darran has explored this stunning region many times over two decades. This exhilarating tour is your gateway to the stunning wildlife along the Chobe River, a natural treasure! Serving as the border between Namibia and Botswana, the Chobe River immerses you in a vibrant ecosystem. Our luxurious journey combines stays at our lovely lodge in Kasane, Botswana, with game drives and unforgettable moments on the Namibian side, anchored by the majestic Pangolin Voyager.
Just across the river lies Chobe National Park, famed for its remarkable wildlife concentrations. Witness iconic African elephants swimming, powerful lions lounging, and hippos wallowing in the shallows. Glide down the river with your camera, capturing scenes of crocodiles basking and flocks of colourful birds overhead. From majestic fish eagles to vivid kingfishers, keep an eye out for the elusive leopard lounging in acacia trees, along with grazing buffalo nearby.
