You could photograph anything. ; No restrictions there.

The surprise was as long as I had a strap around my neck or wrist, the camera did not have to be attached to the vest. ; I had heard all kinds of stuff and was prepared to attach my camera to the vest. ; Really, there is no need. ; The rope bridges look worse than they are. ; The only place one would have to worry about dropping a camera into an animal area.

Yep, as you can see I used my usual camera neck strap. ; What is nice is they do take photos of you on the tour. ; Everyone receives a CD with those photos on them plus any photos the guides take of the animals. ; These photos come with a restrictive use license. ; You can not sell them but are free to use them for personal use.

I really want to do this as well, but am a little hesitant on the price. ; Plus bringing a 11 year old may be no good (not sure it she would like the rope bridges anyway) Added to the bucket list anyway.

count me in for april!

Tim, ; I have to see how things are going, and this might be thinking a little too big for my britches at the moment (I do this a LOT), but I might have to try and join you in April for this. ; I have wanted to do this tour since they created it, and seeing some other photos from the tour, makes me want it even more.

Working on a two part review of the Wild Africa Trek this weekend so I should have more photos to post here soon.

 

[PolynesianMedic]

Awesome! ; I can't wait to see them and read all about it.
