Her efficient preparations ensured a marvellous introduction to the people and accommodations of India.and allowed us to experience this kaleidoscope. The tiger trip was the icing on the cake. Her selection of guide/naturalist and his driver led to amazing wildlife encounters. Not only tigers but birds and many other animals that inhabit the magical forest of Ranthambore. Her trip is perfectly organised and will inevitably lead to many marvellous moments and interaction with the wildlife .
Booking a full day safari was something she offered and arranged. To spend a day in the park which allowed us to sit with tigers for extended periods and follow them with no other vehicles around was truly special. The hotel is excellent offering both Indian and Western food and a kettle in your room is extremely useful .
I have travelled with many professional photographers and can say that Janette , unlike others, is very approachable and will encourage you and educate you at your own pace and requirements. Equally, if you are an experienced photographer she will allow you to pursue your own creativity offering hints and tips as appropriate based on her many years of experience of visiting and leading tiger trips.
A superb trip. Highly recommended.
It was totally different to my usual ‘safari’ in that we only had a couple sightings of lions and no leopards BUT we found a wonderful group of gorillas ranging from a huge silverback (who walked within 18 inches of me) to tiny babies learning how to climb trees. There is a vast array of wildlife, including rhino, hippo, elephant, giraffe, chimpanzees and other primates, lots of birdlife (including Shoebills!) and so the list goes on.
We had wonderful trips on the rivers both during the day and at sunset. Although Uganda is a fairly basic country, it is a beautiful one, with lakes, mountains and rivers and the scenery blew me away. I would say this was a real adventure with some long drives (well worthwhile). I would add that if you are worried about trekking for the gorillas, I am 69, have a replacement hip and knee and still managed – so don’t let anything hold you back. I am definitely hoping to go again. I have travelled with Janette before but it was my first time meeting Peter – I can only say we had a real laugh and would like to thank “Ellie” and “Chicken” for some of it!
Our small group was of mixed ability which can be quite a challenge but Janette pitched things just right and took the time to ensure that everyone felt comfortable and had the opportunity to get the shots they wanted. The style of the workshop was hands-on and very informal which is great for kinaesthetic learners but Janette was always around to offer advice and tips. One felt that she really wanted everyone to get the very best images that they could.
She has a great sense of humour,is very patient and I gained a lot of confidence from the day as well as some fantastic photos. Lavinia the animal handler was expert at getting the animals in place for good images. The animals are clearly extremely well- cared for and treated with respect. During the day we were able to shoot nine different species so there was plenty of variety and challenges : the Little Owl was being a somewhat easier subject than the Stoat which moved like greased lightning . Overall highly – recommend. I would go back next week if I could.
