Join Andrew Goodall for an all-new photography adventure in amazing India! This package includes two tours back-to-back, so you can choose to join either tour, or sign up for the whole adventure.
Over 15 days, experience many of India’s most important cultural highlights, along with wildlife safaris in search of an amazing range of species including tigers, leopards, elephants and huge array of bird-life.
Then from January 24, we embark on a journey to the foothills of the Himalayas. Heavy snow-falls in the high mountains at this time of year drive most of the wildlife to lower ground. This gives us a great chance to capture many rare species including the magnificent Snow Leopard!
You will be travelling with three expert guides. Andrew Goodall is a career wildlife photographer and teacher, there to make sure you have all the guidance you need in the photography department. Pierre Duval is the owner of Guiding The Wild (GTW) – an African tour company specialising in amazing nature experiences. Pierre himself is an expert wildlife spotter. Pradeep Singh is a naturalist with local knowledge of the prime wildlife locations.

Your Hosts
PIERRE DUVAL is the owner of multi-award-winning Guiding The Wild (formerly Bushbaby Safaris), specialising in creating unforgettable African adventures for small group tours. Pierre loves to share the wonders of the African continent with his international guests and is both a naturalist and historian. Most importantly (for nature photographers) he is an expert wildlife spotter who will help you capture photo opportunities you would never experience otherwise. In recent years Pierre has spread his wings beyond Africa to explore even more exotic wildlife experiences.
ANDREW GOODALL is a renowned Australian nature photographer and teacher. He has hosted photography tours all over Australia and overseas. As a skilled and encouraging teacher, he is not only a great companion to have on tour – he can also help to ensure the photos you bring home are as unforgettable as the experience itself.
The Great Migration tour in 2019 was the first time Andrew and Pierre worked together; from that adventure a great friendship was born.
