I jumped out of the vehicle to take the head shot but the guide freaked out and screamed black mamba which freaked out my wife. Which meant I had to return to the vehicle!
The snake this size (2m) would most likely be a rock python but the pattern is nothing like that of a rock python. I wish I had gotten the headshot to find out what this was. Even if it was a black mamba if you are more than 2 body length away, there is no danger.
 
Nice series. I agree, the last one is not a black mamba. I guess it's most likely one of the constrictor / python family. Mamba is even-coloured, not blotchy like this one. The mamba is also relatively slim-looking considering its length. This fat-looking snake is very reminiscent of the constrictors.
