Client Feedback: Rhodedendrons in bloom in the Annapurna Himalayas

Phil and Patti travelled with us to Nepal in March-April of this year on a lodge-based trek in the Annapurna region – their third such journey with Gane and Marshall! They were kind enough to share with us some of their photos, which really capture the beauty of the Annapurna region at this time of year – a time associated with blue skies and the spectacular rhododendron bloom.

Many thanks to Phil and Patti!

Client Feedback: Tanzania Family Safari VLOG, by Amy and Sofia Daniels

Amy and Sofia Daniels travelled to Tanzania with us in July on a family safari, covering the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire and Lake Manyara.

Whilst there, Amy and Sofia “vlogged” their entire trip, uploading a 4-part series of their travels to youtube. The in-depth videos, which we’re delighted to share on our blog, highlight wonderfully the appeal of northern Tanzania at this time of year, and the experience of a family safari.

Client Feedback: Stunning footage from the Mountains of the Moon

We have some wonderful footage of the Rwenzori Mountains to share, courtesy of seven of our climbers who travelled with us to the “Mountains of the Moon” earlier this summer.

Mahmoud, Ale, Shahid, Jassim, Waleed, Ammar and Zubayr spent 8 days in the Rwenzoris. Heavy rains put a damper on their climb, but didn’t stop them from capturing some beautiful footage of the mountains, which you can view on youtube via the links below:

Client feedback: Wonderful wildlife shots from Uganda, Zambia, Brazil and Botswana!

We’ve had some wonderful photos from our safari-goers over the last month – so wonderful, that we thought they deserved a blog post!

Scroll through the gallery below to see photos of a rare anteater in the Brazilian Pantanal, a gorgeous lioness in a tree, a gorilla with its young, and more – all taken by G&M clients!

 

Client Feedback: Fabulous photos of wild tigers in India

Regular safari-goer Dr Mike Leary-Owhin travelled with us to India in March and returned with some absolutely fabulous photos of tigers in the wild, which we thought we must share.

We’ve picked a few highlights from the photos Mike sent us and included them in the gallery below.

You can view the rest of Mike’s pictures on his Flickr pages. Click here for Tiger photos, and here for other wildlife and landscapes.

Client Feedback: Wonderful Tanzania photo journals

In the past month we’ve been lucky enough to receive two wonderful photo journals from clients who recently travelled with us to Tanzania. We thought we would share them with you.

Wild camping in the Serengeti
Josephine travelled to North Tanzania with her family and friends on one of our very special light mobile safaris. She was kind enough to share with us this wonderful account of her trip, full of her stunning photographs (that’s her cheetah at the top of the page!)

Solo adventure in remote Ruaha and the Selous
Janet explored the opposite end of Tanzania, visiting the southern parks of Selous and Ruaha while her husband climbed Kilimanjaro. Her account really highlights what makes Tanzania’s comparatively little-visited southern parks so special!

Many thanks to Janet and Josephine for their wonderful accounts and photos!

Client Feedback: stunning photos of Kafue NP and South Luangwa Valley in Zambia

Dr Michael Leary-Owhin recently visited the South Luangwa Valley and Kafue National Park in Zambia as part of a private photographic safari organised by Gane and Marshall. A keen photographer, Mike took some exceptional photos which he’s been kind enough to share with us, and which we in turn want to share with you.
