Spring/Early Summer Safari.

Autumn Safari
or
Program
or
the Cost
In the South of France Spring comes earlier than the more northern
countries and with the unfortunate advance of global warming
Spring in general is officially coming two weeks ahead of times
gone past .
We have therefore based the opening Photo Safaris to start from the
first main change into Spring to just past the full bloom of the
Lavender fields!
All
shoots start and end on a Thursday and the start/end point for
the tours is Marseilles Airport.
The available dates are:
Spring Early Summer
- Starts Mid April and ends Mid
July
Autumn
- Starts Last week in October and
ends in the Second week in December
Each week is booked on a first come first served basis and
reservations are not complete unless the deposits have been
made.
Non photographic partners
are also very welcome to come and enjoy the place.
To book any of these weeks please request by e-mail for
availability from :

A
few words from Rod
The
Above program has been organised so that you should be
able to benefit from Three distinct areas:
1) Spend the maximum amount of
time shooting great shots yet in comfort.
2) Experience the best of this
part of Provence in a week.
3) Have your taste senses titillated
by the mixture of French and local cuisine.
We have already experienced
everything offered here and personally checked it out
for you. We have thrown away the basic or the poor and
kept only the best available!
This doesn't mean that everything
is 5 star, but we have taken the trouble to find the
little details like where was the best home made ice
cream in a particular area so you could try it. Or if there isn't anything
that we feel acceptable in an area then we have
provided it (.....obviously not the ice cream).
