I’ve had so many friends go it alone there, ending up on large cumbersome trucks with multiple other folks, and seeing very little, so figured the only way to do it properly and see tigers and be able to photograph them successfully etc was to go with an expert. This all turned out to be true, and the trip exceeded all expectations. Janette has sourced the best guide and driver team in the park, who laughed at me saying at the start that I’d be happy seeing one tiger – they delivered 20 sightings, of 12 different tigers. Amazing!! Still can’t believe my photographs, even as a rank amateur, completely without eye wateringly expensive lenses.
The whole trip was just terrific – the accommodation at the Ranthambhore Regency Hotel perfect – a lovely spot with incredibly kind and accommodating staff who couldn’t do enough for us, Janette totally organised and ever helpful and flexible with all our needs, and having done these trips for so many years now, knowing all the ropes (including all the tigers + their cubs !) which is exactly what you need. I can’t recommend this trip enough – if you really want to fully enjoy the whole tiger experience, you are in the right place ! Many many thanks to Janette, the wonderful Ash and Sajjid. Truly a trip of a lifetime.
The size of three was ideal, as with two instructors it gave time to evaluate that which you had heard and time to become better acquainted with your own camera. I had to hire a lens as I did not have a Macro lens, my wife and son both already had theirs. The ambience was such that I felt that I could always ask the “silly” question without fear of being made to feel silly.
Both instructors were very friendly and patient. The knowledge of both photography techniques and of the animals was outstanding and it seemed that the animals were never stressed. With the lighting controlled for us I managed some really wonderful shots. The lunch provided was ideal, casual, restful and informative. I came away a little bemused with all that I had been told, a little exhausted by concentrating for the day, however I was extremely elated by the photographs I had taken, inspired by the results and we all stated that the day was educational, very practically satisfying and most of all thoroughly enjoyable. A REALLY GOOD DAY.
Even in the wet there were animals to photograph. Janette was very patient when I forgot some basic things like how to change the aperture on my camera, but was equally happy to answer more advanced questions. The groups are small so Janette has plenty of time to help if/when you want help or advice. I would, without reservation recommend Janette’s workshops.
