Marianne - Mara & Lake Magadi 2025

Every time I arrive in Africa, it feels like coming home. You get the same feeling when you travel with Ingrid. You can enjoy yourself, and you don't have to worry about anything. Everything is taken care of to perfection. 

Ingrid sometimes says: we're going to another camp now, it's rather basic, but it has everything you need. When you arrive at the camp, it turns out that... you have all the luxury you need. That is all you could wish for. 

Thanks to Ingrid's keen eyes and those of her highly motivated drivers, we were able to photograph lions, leopards, and so much more. 

The hide at Lentorre was a brand-new and absolutely amazing experience for me. Like the Maasai warrior who stayed with us in the hide and spotted animals with us, who woke us up to photograph the animals that were drinking at the waterhole and who was amazed when they even saw a caracal and a striped hyena at the waterhole. Breathtaking experience! Beautiful pictures! And the silence among all our photographers was astonishing… 

Like us, Ingrid is also amazed and happy to see so much beauty: a lion cub that is barely a week old, an impala calf that was born two hours ago. There was passion in her every move, in mine, and in the other photographers’ too. I have only one thing to say: Ingrid, once again, it was just fantastic! Thank you for the beautiful pictures, tips, locations, fun, laughter (with the other friends), unforgettable memories. We'll see each other again soon... in our beloved Africa.
