Beautiful pictures and nicely detailed TR.
What did you take pics with and how much was the elephant camp per night? (Assuming a pretty penny)
Thank you!
If you click on the hyperlinked pictures you can see all of the camera/photo details. I used a Samsung NX200 that I bought through the deal Dan posted at the end of last year. The camera cost me about $250. I am a complete amateur; it’s the first “professional” camera I have ever used. All of the photos were point-and-shoot shots.
The Elephant Camp costs about $1100/night for a couple. I would never pay that much, and did not pay that much. The hotel was willing to work with me though because I was not eating any of their meals. However, they asked me to keep the price confidential. My suggestion is to just email them directly and ask for a better rate. Because of the Ebola scare, they had many cancelations and are really looking to fill up their rooms. They told me so outright.
Also, for whatever rate they give you, keep in mind that they generously include the following:
(1) Airport Pickup and Drop Off
(2) Driver and Guide to Vic Falls
(3) Zambezi River Cruise
(4) Meet the Elephants
(5) Cheetah Encounter
(6) Somewhat Kosher Breakfast and Drinks
