During the Africa in Focus 2010 safari, you’ll learn everything you need to know to take professional and moving photographs, while touring some of South Africa and Zimbabwe’s most fascinating and historically- and culturally-rich townships and regions. From the world’s oldest wine estates to bustling Cape Town life, local community projects to Victoria Falls (one of the seven natural wonders of the world), and African safari tours to historical sites, you’ll experience and capture an enchanted world of beauty and cultural diversity through the lens of a camera.

In order to help you better understand the components of Africa in Focus 2010, and become acquainted with Peter Hurley and David J. West, Hills of Africa Travel is hosting a live webinar this Wednesday, March 24 at 9pm – 10pm EDT.

On this call, you’ll learn about the itinerary for this 12 day journey to Africa, ask any questions you may have, and meet Peter Hurley and David J. West.

But before the call, we would like to share with you our reasoning behind why we chose Africa in Focus to take place in South Africa and Zimbabwe:

  • Both countries are rich in natural tourism resources including the people and wildlife of the region, as well as lush and protected landscapes. Our number one priority at Hills of Africa Travel is to ensure that all of these resources remain sustainable and continue to thrive. We only support tourism establishments with the same standards as we have and direct all travel dollars into the best hands.
  • Both countries provide the perfect setting for photographic journalists in the field to document the incredible benefits of eco-tourism efforts and natural resources to the land, people, and wildlife of Africa. During your Africa safari tours, you will have the highly-rewarding opportunity to snap photographs of some of the world’s most fascinating wildlife, and, once we return, you can submit up to three of your photographs to be included in a collection that will become a coffee table book, the proceeds of which will go to the Hills of Africa Foundation.
