Photo Tours
Each year Will offers a small selection of guided, photographic safaris. Aimed at all levels of photographer - beginner to professional - with itineraries expertly curated around some of Will's favourite photography destinations.
Introduction
No two guests arrive at a Fortescue photo tour with the same experience, and that's entirely the point - Will has guided everyone from first-time camera holders to official Nikon Creators, and every level in between is not just welcome but encouraged.
The locations are chosen by Will, the timing is chosen by Will, and the groups are kept deliberately small so that the experience feels personal and sightings are quiet and intimate. He leads every tour himself, which means you are not joining a safari and being handed to someone else. You are travelling with Will.
Five years since his first departure, the trips seem to have found an audience. Spaces sell out eighteen months in advance, around seventy-five percent of guests return after their first tour, and a handful make it back two or three times a year.

"A private family safari with a prize-winning wildlife photographer is a remarkable experience...Our family has varying levels of photo experience, and Will offered significant artistic and technical insights to each of us...his knowledge of eastern Africa runs very deep...Best of all, Will mixes a serious professionalism with an easy-going nature. This was easily our best safari yet, and we look forward to doing another with Will.”
"I have been privileged to be guided by some of the best, the joy with which Will presents the natural and cultural world we are visiting is infectious and invigorating! Helpful and kind, passionate and generous, Will ensures we will get great shots, interesting and thought provoking conversations, and a multitude of memories. Will ably assisted the weakest in the family and confidently pushed the strongest further. I couldn’t recommend safaris with him more! I cannot wait for our next adventure together."
"A last minute safari trip to Amboseli National Park in Kenya turned to a trip above and beyond expectation. The super tusk elephant safari was well-coordinated and properly run and if you asked politely, Will will make sure he accommodate your special requests as long as it's reasonable. Right, Will? I enjoyed being with my fellow seasoned photographers, who can photograph in all conditions. It will challenge your photographic skills and inspire you to be a better photographer. I am extremely happy with all the unique experiences I had on this trip and I have photos and videos to prove it."
"I couldn't ask for more of a magically holiday. Thank you so much to Will for planning my family holiday. They did a stella job from start to finish. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a luxury holiday company to explore the worlds untouched."
