About Peter Geraerdts

I am passionate about Africa and photography. I have been fortunate enough to combine these passions and offer photographic safaris in the South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. I am also a professional Luangwa safari guide. Combining the two means that I can offer a personalized photographic experience like no other. I also own and run Track and Trail Safaris, Track and Trail is a beautiful personalized lodge on the banks of the Luangwa River.

In 2003 I completed my ‘immobilisation’ course in Zimbabwe with a view of helping wounded animals who had become victims of poachers. I am also a member of the HWPO (Honorary Wildlife Police Officers). HWPO officers are non- governmental officers who help out local wildlife authorities with certain conservation projects in their free time.

As a keen photographer, I’m sure you would like to know the equipment I use, so here it goes:

Canon bodies: 5D mark III – 1DX-mark2
Lenses: 24 – 105mm – F4 / 70 -200mm II USM- F2.8 / 200-400mm IS USM F4.0
