“I’ll definitely be back for more”

“As a beginner photographer, I was keen to learn more about my camera and photography, and ultimately take better photos. I love going on safari and seeing animals in their natural habitat, so I was excited when a friend recommended Bobby-Jo’s Safari. 

Initially, I was a bit nervous about whether I was good enough for a photographic safari, but that worry disappeared the moment I met Bobby-Jo.
She immediately put me at ease, creating a welcoming and enjoyable experience. We had lessons both in camp and out in the field, where I learnt more about lighting, shutter speed, and camera setup. The whole experience has given me more confidence and allowed me to take some amazing photos that I will treasure forever.
The added bonus is Bobby-Jo’s knowledge of wildlife, so this coupled with the photography made this an unforgettable experience. 
I’ll definitely be back for more and highly recommend it!”
