Start Early
Wildlife is most active at first light—expect pick-up around 7:00 AM and cooler temperatures for better sightings.

Jeep safaris put you at a respectful distance from large mammals; binoculars or a telephoto lens sharpen sightings and photos.

When visiting Larabanga mosque, dress modestly and ask before photographing people or sacred sites.
