There’s nothing quite like wildlife photography in Botswana. Beyond the usual stops like Chobe NP, we’ll head deeper into Savuti, the Okavango Delta, and other wild places where the experience is raw, untamed, and unforgettable.
This trip is built for photographers who want to immerse themselves in one of the world’s most incredible wilderness areas. Expect close encounters, endless horizons, and the kind of safari moments you’ll never forget.
Yes, it’s 50% camping, it’s dry, it’s outdoors, it’s wild! BUT we’ve also built in time to recharge, relax, and enjoy the calm side of nature. Adventure, comfort, and creativity all in one journey. Welcome to TRVL° Botswana.

TRVL° Trip Style
Adventure Series: The TRVL° Photography Adventure Series pushes beyond the familiar, taking photographers into rugged environments, unpredictable conditions, and wild corners of the world. These trips are built for those who crave challenge and authenticity. Capturing raw, unfiltered stories where comfort takes a back seat to discovery and experience.
This trip does have some challenges. The roads are bumpy and dusty, the heat can be intense and the accommodation is an interesting mix of wild camping, safari lodge, and hotel. However, there is not a lot of actual physical exercise required.
How is the Accommodation?
Camping always comes with its challenges, and this is not intended to be a luxury experience. That said, our camping nights are designed to balance adventure with comfort. Guests will stay in spacious walk-in safari tents equipped with mattresses, while our dedicated team of guides will handle all tent setup, meal preparation, and camp security—including safeguarding against wildlife that may pass nearby.
For this journey, the accommodation breakdown is as follows:
5 Nights Camping
2 Nights Safari Lodge
5 Nights Hotel
Fitness Level 2: There is no major walking or hiking on this trip. The biggest challenge will be the long bumpy (and dusty) drives in open safari vehicles.
