BOTSWANA:
Ultimate Safari

June 15 to 27, 2026
6 people – 4 places available

Botswana is one of Africa’s last great wilderness sanctuaries.
This trip plunges you into the heart of its most authentic nature, thanks to an itinerant camp that allows us to live as close as possible to the animals, in remote and little-visited areas.

Each day we travel through the spectacular landscapes of the Okavango Delta, endless savannahs and rivers populated by elephants, lions, leopards and hundreds of birds.

An exclusive, small-group experience designed for wildlife photography enthusiasts in search of rare images and strong emotions.

KENYA:
THE black panther

July 27 to August 4 2026
6 people – 6 places available

Welcome to one of Kenya’s most secret places. No hordes of tourists or dozens of 4x4s lined up. Just us, the savannah, and a fascinating quest: that of the mysterious black leopard. This feline, as rare as it is fascinating, blends into the shadows and rarely lets itself be observed… but with patience and a little luck, anything is possible!

And that’s not all. The reserve abounds in other wonders: spotted leopards, majestic elephants crossing the plains, elegant giraffes grazing on the acacias and even a pack of wild dogs that can be spotted on the hunt. Not forgetting the impressive Grevy’s zebras, unique in their fine stripes.

They traveled with me!

During my expeditions, I have the privilege of witnessing the beauty of nature, but unfortunately also its decline due to human activities. My mission is to share my experiences and observations in nature in order to involve people in its conservation.

Being a member of the International League of Conservation Photographers is a real honor for me. ILCP is a collective of international photographers who focus their work on the conservation of nature through documented and inspiring stories, while promoting the ethical practice of photography.

I really appreciated your passion for nature and animals, which you were able to communicate to the group. I learned a lot about the life of the Orangutans thanks to you. What’s more, you were always available to answer my questions and give me photo tips. That’s really nice and appreciated. It helped me to progress in wildlife photography. You’re also always available and adaptable to the people in your group, and very attentive to their requests. I also thought it was great that on several occasions you suggested alternatives or additions to the trip.

All my trips are operated by the highly reputable Objectif-Nature travel agency. For over 30 years, they have been the French specialists in photo travel. Thanks to their logistics, we are lucky enough to be able to photograph wild animals in the best possible conditions.
