Londolozi is an extremely unique place as I’m sure everyone who has visited us will agree. There are so many different elements to what makes us unique. Every single day holds so much opportunity around every corner with each guest arriving for something different. As a standalone family business, diversity and experience is at the center of what we do. Some of the greatest opportunities present themselves on each game drive, from the smallest of creatures crawling around on the ground, to the indescribable feeling of watching a pride of lions silently move past your vehicle at dusk, or the graceful beauty of a leopard ascending the trunk of a marula tree.
In today’s world, our guests are looking for choice. Some want to disconnect and lose themselves in the wilderness, whilst others come in search of the Big 5 where photographic technology needs to be right at their fingertips so that they may capture the magic of this incredible place and store its memorable moments in a more tactile form. The detail of a leopard’s whiskers or the light backlighting a lion’s mane can truly help you fall in love with nature.
Visiting Londolozi may be a once-in-a-lifetime bucket list trip for some and to others, like so many of our guests, it may be something they do every year as their ultimate nature fix. With that being said, gone are the days of having to lug large bags of camera equipment around with you, everything you need can simply be pre-ordered and waiting for you on arrival. We want all of our guests to experience this incredible feeling we like to call the “Londolozi effect” a feeling one simply cannot describe and should not miss the opportunity to capture.
The Londolozi photographic studio is where guests are able to have tutored Lightroom sessions with qualified guides, touching up and enhancing photographs taken during your stay with us. It is a special space where both guests and guides can make their images come to life using state-of-the-art iMac computers for the best experience. On top of all this, if an image really stands out, why not print it onto a canvas of whatever size you desire.
Here at Londolozi, you will be guided by our experienced and passionate guides, not just about the wildlife but photography and camera settings too, all while ensuring you are in the best possible position to capture the perfect moment creating memories to last a lifetime. The Londolozi photographic studio is a beautiful, hi-tech onsite facility that is full of camera equipment and post-processing gear for you to try pre-order and try out while you are here.
If it is a Wimberly arm you are looking for or a larger lens to get the shot you have always dreamt of, get in touch with us and we can make these dreams come to life.

After every visit to Londolozi my husband has wonderful photos of our visit. several times he has sought advice from the photography lab! Victoria
I’m very glad your husband has got the advice he needed to get the best photographs to take home. Hopefully lots more to come.
Thanks for the reminder Guy! It can be quite a challenge dragging all the equipment with us! You do have everything we could need, plus renting equipment is a much less costly way to have the best-of-the-best lenses and camera bodies at our disposal! It is also awesome that your team can help us make sure we are on the right track in your photographic studio with your experienced team. Can’t wait to get back to Londolozi for new adventures!
Hello Michael and Terri, I trust you are both keeping well. You are very correct and that’s why we have the photographic studio for anyone to try different lenses and see what suits them best. We look forward to having you both back here soon.
Ready to take the next step with a better lens.
It’s great that Londolozi offers this service so that one doesn’t have that extra heavy luggage to carry on the planes.
The perfect article Guy for guests who desire the wilderness/ wildlife experience, but would also like to capture their memories without carrying bulky camera equipment. Many guests use their smart phones but this offers a reasonable alternative if they don’t own camera equipment. This is just another reason for future safari travelers to consider Londolozi for their stay.
Thank you for the kind words Denise, and you are a repeat guest who has also made use of our photographic studio and captured some incredible moments and memories. Looking forward to your next return. Keep safe and look after your hand
