Itinerary
Arrive at Pafuri Tented Camps
We will arrive and have a chilled afternoon drive just to set the tone, looking for a few birds and getting to know each other at sun downers.
Exploring Pafuri
We will leave early to start our journey to look for all the specials including roosting Pels Fishing Owls. Will return to the lodge for breakfast and then do an optional drive around the park looking for any birds we can find in the middle of the day. We will then have an afternoon drive that starts early afternoon after high tea and goes into the night where we will try for Three banded Courser and other Night time species.
A day of walking
We will be doing the same as day one. The optional between time will be a short light room editing session to help learn the ropes and get the most out of your images.
