点评:We have recently returned home from the 6 day Best of Chobe trip. We embarked on the journey with really high expectations based on what we had read about Pangolin Safaris, then trip itself exceeded our expectations by some way.
The three nights on the Pangolin Voyager houseboat were magical and each morning and afternoon we were straight out onto the Chobe River in the dedicated photo boats. We had some fabulous sightings and photo opportunities and really enjoyed the different feel that our images had from shooting low down on the river.
The three nights at the stunning Pangolin hotel were equally good, we did three land based safaris and three more water based safaris.
Our photo host Janine was outstanding and led our group of seven superbly. She was supportive and encouraging throughout what was a very hot trip (36 - 40 degrees!!). She helped us develop techniques we don't use regularly at home, such as shooting high and low key images and slow speed panning. At the hotel, Janine gave us presentations on different aspects of post production in Lightroom, particularly how to edit our high and low key images successfully.
We were very fortunate that we were part of a fabulous group of people who got on well and really enjoyed what was a very unique experience. All of the staff we met were excellent and provided great service.
Our trip was one of very few we have been on where we can say everything was perfect and I can't thinks of anything constructive to suggest that could improve it further.
翻译:我们最近刚从为期 6 天的乔贝河最佳之旅中返回家中。根据我们读到的关于穿山甲狩猎之旅的信息,我们怀着很高的期望踏上了旅程,但旅程本身却超出了我们的预期。
在穿山甲航海者号游船上度过的三个晚上非常神奇,每天早上和下午我们都乘坐专用摄影船直奔乔贝河。我们看到了一些绝妙的景象和拍照机会,真的很享受在河上低空拍摄时照片的不同感觉。
在令人惊叹的穿山甲酒店度过的三个晚上同样很棒,我们参加了三次陆地狩猎之旅和三次水上狩猎之旅。
我们的摄影主持人 Janine 非常出色,出色地领导了我们七人小组。在非常炎热的旅行中(36-40 度!!),她一直支持和鼓励我们。她帮助我们开发了我们在家里不经常使用的技巧,例如拍摄高调和低调图像以及慢速平移。在酒店,Janine 向我们介绍了 Lightroom 后期制作的不同方面,特别是如何成功编辑我们的高调和低调图像。
我们非常幸运,我们加入了一个很棒的团队,我们相处得很好,真的很享受这次非常独特的体验。我们遇到的所有员工都很出色,提供了优质的服务。
我们的旅行是我们经历过的为数不多的一切都完美的旅行之一,我想不出有什么建设性的建议可以进一步改善它。
