Good photo safaris fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 7 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Tromsø’s Northern Lights Safari, with expert guides, Arctic camp, photos, bus transport, costs, tips, and honest advice.
“Amazing! Saw the most beautiful northern lights show and had the greatest guide Babang! Thank you Babang for everything!”
Chase Tromsø’s Northern Lights by coach, with heated camp, hot meal, thermal suits, guide photos, Wi-Fi, and toilet facilities.
“It was a very long day but we did get to see the northern lights with great images taken. It was around -15c but everything was easily accessible to help us stay warm on top of our already warm clothes. A meal was provided and so were drinks.”
Review of Dubai’s Hummer desert safari with dune bashing, sunset photos, camel rides, sandboarding, buffet dinner, and live shows.
“Very good activity: the trip, the Hummer, the show, the dinner and especially Faiz, excellent guide.”
Review of Doha’s private night desert safari with dune driving, stargazing, sandboarding, camel rides, tea, and photography.
“Excellent experience! Hawaii was amazing. He took us to the edge and back. He is a skilled photographer and took many amazing pictures that will fuel our memories. Highly recommend.”
Track Arctic foxes, reindeer, and ptarmigans on a small-group photography hike from Longyearbyen with local guides and warm drinks.
“Our guide moved to the area as a high schooler (from northern Norway), and his father is a wildlife photographer and birder, so Ivar knew wildlife and living here. What I appreciated most as the only person over 40 (as in almost 70!), was Ivar’s efforts to keep me in involved in the group (of just 6) lending a subtle hand when needed (I think it scared us both when a gust of Spitzenberg’s famous winds caught me off guard and nearly blew me off my feet!), and taking my phone to grab a shot he saw I wanted but didn’t want to make the group wait for me to…”
Review of Cabo’s open-ocean snorkeling safari, with wildlife, photos, boat views, practical tips, costs, limits, and booking advice.
“What a fantastic experience! We saw and snorkeled out in the open ocean with several types of wild dolphins, which was absolutely magical! They took the Go Pro and filmed it, so all we had to do was enjoy. We had plenty of time to enjoy them, and then we went to Chileno Bay for more snorkeling, this time in the reef. We saw all kinds of fish and even a turtle. The guides were amazing and very knowledgeable. The footage is amazing! If you are going to snorkel, do this trip! It is clearly the best one out there!”
Review of San Pedro de Atacama’s wildlife safari, with flamingos, vicuñas, volcano views, expert guides, photography gear, and practical tips.
“What a great afternoon! We absolutely loved this tour. Our guide Juan was so friendly and knowledgeable (not just about animals, but Chile in general) and taught us so much. He is obviously passionate about what he does and that really shows and makes for a wonderful experience. We saw vicuñas, guanacos, heaps of vizcachas and so many different birds (including flamingos). The scenery was beautiful and we loved seeing everything through the binoculars and telescope provided. We could not recommend this tour more highly! Thank you Juan :)”
