Pangolin Photo Safaris has teamed up with Natural Selection to open the Pangolin Khwai Camp in the Khwai Private Reserve, Botswana, hosting clients from March 2018.
Pangolin will design the guest experience around the needs of modern day photographers and safari enthusiasts.
The camp has seven Meru-style tents, with en-suite facilities. The communal areas of the lodge have been designed with photographers in mind, and feature a dedicated editing and post production area, as well as large screens for presentations and hosted workshops.
Pangolin Khwai Camp will have a maximum of 12 guests at any one time, utilising three game viewers. The reserve allows for off-roading at special sightings, as well as night drives and mokoro excursions. Each of the game viewers will be adapted for photographers with bean bag mounts.
Limiting each vehicle to a maximum of four clients allows for more freedom of movement of the photographer at a sighting.
The camp will be hosted by a resident photography guide, with cameras available for those travelling without their gear.
Pangolin has always had the needs of photographic clients at the forefront of its thoughts, says Toby Jermyn, Co-Owner of Pangolin Photo Safaris. “The potential of this camp to become a world-class photo safari destination is immense.”
“Our clientele are not after the ‘bells and whistles’ of a high-end lodge. They prioritise time in the bush and photographic opportunities over luxury touches,” says Gerhard Swanepoel, Co-Owner of Pangolin.
