AFRICA DRONE SAFARI

 THE ULTIMATE DRONE COACHING AFRICAN SAFARI ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME EXPERIENCE
2nd Trip: March 29th-April 6th (Including Travel Days)
 

Embark on a life-changing adventure with Drone Pro Academy's exclusive South Africa Safari Expedition! Spend 6 Nights (1 at Airport hotel and 5 at the Lodge) at a private, luxury safari lodge and reserve, exclusively reserved for our group. Nestled in the heart of the African wilderness, this oasis features all the comforts of modern luxury, including a gym, pool, fire pit, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a private chef.

Our days will be filled with exhilarating guided safaris, both at sunrise and sunset, offering prime chances to witness Africa’s Big Five—Wild lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants, and buffalo—up close with no fences :)

 

Between these breathtaking excursions, I'll be there to offer personal coaching and hands-on photography and video workshops. Connect with like-minded adventurers, learn new skills, and capture stunning footage of this incredible land and also relax during this life-changing opportunity.

This is by far the most relaxing expedition that we offer! 

In South Africa, drone flights in national parks are strictly prohibited to protect endangered species like rhinos from poaching.

 

This expedition offers a unique, permitted opportunity to capture stunning drone footage of wildlife in a way that respects their natural environment.

 

Drones will only be flown when animals are calm and undisturbed, prioritizing their comfort and safety.
