Safari Itinerary

Arrive on your international flight to be greeted by our Governors’ Camp driver. You will be transferred to Wilson Airport for your morning or afternoon Governors’ Aviation bush flight to the Masai Mara. Met at the airstrip, you will enjoy a short game drive into Governors’ Private Camp where you are welcomed with a refreshing drink. This is your home for the next 6 nights!

Arise early to ensure you are out on the Mara plains with the sunrise – some of the best images are captured at this hour. Spend a morning out with Paul, finding photographic opportunities and learning how to take that perfect photo. A picnic breakfast on the plains provides you the flexibility to stay as your desire. A delicious lunch awaits you back at camp, followed by a late afternoon of unearthing more photographic opportunities.

Each day you will embark on another journey of learning and perfecting new skills. Each game drive will be personally hosted by Paul, who will provide one-on-one training to each person, guiding their individual photographic needs. Your day-to-day game drives and timings will depend on the activity of the wildlife and photographic opportunities presented.

Your days will be punctuated by delicious meals and a surprise sundowners and bush dinner on one of the evenings. Each night, group review sessions of the day’s captures will help you further hone your skills and learn the theories behind capturing an engaging image.
