A collaborative photography journey beyond the safari in Amboseli, Kenya.
Join us for an immersive journey through Kenya’s iconic wildlife landscapes, vibrant cultures, and inspiring conservation initiatives. From photographing elephants beneath Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli to exploring the wildlife of Nairobi National Park, this expedition combines photography, conservation mentorship, citizen science, and cultural exchange.
Learn from Kenyan conservationists and photographers, discover the traditional knowledge of local communities, explore indigenous plants, join guided birding activities, and experience life with Maasai hosts in the Amboseli landscape. In addition, support the TonyWild Foundation to train a group of young storytellers from the Amboseli Community. Guided by the team at TonyWild Foundation, you’ll be invited into a deeply immersive experience that will transform the way you see, listen, and tell stories.
WHAT YOU’LL EXPERIENCE
Participants will:
• Create a powerful story — blending images and words — to add to your professional or personal portfolio and to promote the work of TonyWild Foundation.
• Deepen your ethical storytelling practice, learning how to tell stories with communities, not about them.
• Experience daily life and culture in the heart of the Maasai and Kenyan people.
IMPACT
Wild Kenya goes beyond photography, bringing people together through conservation, culture and shared learning. Participants will strengthen their storytelling skills, learn from Kenyan photographers and conservationists, and explore local knowledge through meaningful cultural exchange and citizen science.
By working with local guides, community hosts and conservation practitioners, the expedition aims to support local livelihoods, celebrate cultural heritage and encourage respectful storytelling. Ultimately, it creates opportunities to connect people with nature and inspire stories that promote appreciation for Kenya’s wildlife, biodiversity and communities.
