Hi Folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with a self driving safari in Kenya? I lived there in 1982 and did lots of photography trips in my Landrover, so I'm thinking of traveling to Kenya and rent a Landrover when I get there. This would give me a little more freedom to setup the shots that I want rather than being in a crowded vehicle with 4-5 other photographers. Three weeks will give me enough time to get to the areas of interest to me.
However, I can see a couple of detractors, like not having access to the radio frequencies to 'hear' about finds that the tour operators have made. I'd love to hear from anyone who has gone this route, and any advice you might have. I'm thinking of going to Lake Nakuru, the Masai Mara, Nairobi National Park and possibly the Serengeti.
Thoughts? Advice? Pros and Cons? I'm open to hearing what others have to say.
Cheers,
