Fotoetikette

Es ist im Allgemeinen höflich und respektvoll, um Erlaubnis zu bitten, bevor man ein Foto von jemandem macht.

Die meisten Menschen werden wahrscheinlich „Ja“ sagen, aber es ist wichtig, sie mit Respekt zu behandeln und sie nicht zu objektivieren. Wenn Sie versuchen, ein Foto zu machen, insbesondere von jüngeren Menschen, machen diese oft gerne mit und posieren, was es schwierig macht, natürliche Momente der Gambier, die ihren Tag verbringen, einzufangen.

Es gibt jedoch Menschen, die nicht gerne fotografiert werden, und wir sollten ihre Würde und Privatsphäre respektieren.

Ein wichtiger Hinweis ist, dass es „illegal“ ist, Polizisten, Wachen und Regierungsgebäude ohne offiziell genehmigte Erlaubnis zu fotografieren. Machen Sie auf keinen Fall Fotos von Botschaften, Regierungsgebäuden oder Militärangehörigen oder Stützpunkten ohne entsprechende offizielle Genehmigung.

Leben durch eine Linse

Sie müssen kein Profi sein, um etwas Typisches, Schönes oder Lustiges einzufangen. Bei guten Bildern kommt es nicht auf den Preis und die Größe Ihrer Kamera an. Es geht um die Person, die es ausübt.

Wir wissen genau, wann und wohin wir gehen müssen, um Sie dorthin zu bringen, wo die Bilder sind. Probier unser Sonnenaufgang/SonnenaufgangT Reise und schaffe Erinnerungen für ein Leben lang.

Relaxed birding in Gambia
We spent 10 days at Footsteps on a leisurely birding holiday. Lovely setting with plenty of bird life within close proximity and of course whilst relaxing in the grounds, over 150 species seen. A lovely 25 minute easy, flat walk to the beach with a large crocodile observed in the wetland! Food excellent and it was really nice to sit chatting with other guests over the evening meal. A couple of great birding day trips with Lamin Bojang increased our bird count, thankyou! Our Marakissa tour was excellent with a delicious meal at the Marakissa River Camp included. All the staff were extremely kind, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Transfers to and from the airport worked very well for us. If you would like a quiet, restful holiday with full sun and pleasant surroundings this is the place for you.

A perfect stay
Incredible place. Accommodation was as described if not better . Plenty of space , hot shower , fan and mosquito net. Room cleaned daily with fresh towels if needed. The outside areas were perfect for relaxing in , dappled shade amongst the trees and plants. Lots of bird life / wild life around the complex. The food was exemplary, from the fresh breakfast to a great choice for lunch to the table d’hote in the evenings. We did the beach clean , the beach walk in both directions plus plenty of birding in the area. There is lots to explore but it was also lovely just to relax in the grounds. The plunge pool was refreshing when returning from a trip for an immediate cool down. We throughly enjoyed our time here , didn’t want to leave and we are definitely looking at returning and exploring Gambia in more depth including another stay at foot steps of course .

Beautiful sunsets in paradise
Footsteps is a really special place. Bouba and Doudou were very welcoming and friendly and Karamo is a wonderful host - he helped us to find the local places that we wanted to visit. The pool is cool that's for sure and a great highlight of our trip as it is freshwater and not chlorinated. Our room was lovely and the bed was really comfortable. There are so many beautiful birds there and the grounds are lovely and well maintained. I would highly recommend Footsteps.

Great place and perfect sanctuary in south Gambia
TRhis is a great place less than a mile from Gunjur one way and a fabulous empty beach the other way. Footsteps is a perferct snactuary from the heat and the food served for breakfast and dinner really good (they even sell guiness!). Wandering through the forest on the sandy lanes is a great experience and you can organise various trips through the lodge which are great (we especially enjoyed the wildlife and bird spotting trip with Lamin. Would definitely go back in a heartbeat

Great bird photography opportunities
Main goal with my ten nights stay was photographing birds. I ended up with good pictures of around 145 species. The accommodation in the sunbird house was great and spacious and the meals served were delicious. I especially appreciated the barbecue arrangements with dance and drums/kora music on saturdays. The photographing possibilities were very good both guided and on my own by the wetlands locally. I will recommend the kayaking in Tanji as a must-experience highlight.

Holiday of my life!
The holiday of my life! Met all my expectations. Welcoming, friendly, laid-back, relaxing, picturesque, beatiful. Great staff. Good food. Sensible in every way. A perfect match for my long-standing passion for both Gambian culture and birding. Good oportunities to socialise with other guests. Interesting cultural visits by Jeli Yankuba and a djembe group from Gunjur which made us all dance. And not least, birding was incredible. Me and my travel companion registered more than 130 bird species in ten days! A small platform obove the little pool in the centre of Footsteps was a perfect place to photograph beautiful sunbirds, a pygmy kingfisher, weavers and many more. And Footsteps' excellent bird-guide Lamin Bojang took us to other places where we saw owls, spoonbills, pelicans and more. One thing I know for sure: I will be back!

Best ecolodge there is!
This has to be the best lodge in the Gambia. Amazing staff, great food and the last word in comfort. Really impressed by the whole approach to sustainability. Not to mention the incredible wood carver, the weavers (when was the last time you could say I know who grew the cotton, know who spun it, and wove it?), and jeweller. The most relaxing time ever! Thank you David and Linda.

Home from Home
We have visited the Gambia many times and this was our 4th visit to Footsteps. Every time we walk through the gates the place feels like a home from home. David, Linda and their staff keep the lodges and grounds clean and tidy. The food produced by the chefs is always to a high standard and the barbeques with entertainment from the local drummers is always a great evening. Every time we come we make new friends and discover new places to visit. We will be back very soon.

A Gambian Haven!
Can’t stop returning to this Gambian Haven. It was wonderful to return for our 5th visit this year and to be greeted again so warmly by David and his staff. The food as always was delicious, accommodation spotless and every time we come we experience more and varied things about this delightful country and its people, all arranged through Footsteps. We will certainly be back again

A Warm and wonderful stay in the most beautiful environment
Footsteps is a fantastic natural place where David and Linda and their staff welcome you with warmth and care. All praise! Sitting in front of your roundhouse you will see many birds, but you can also take bird walks and walk towards the beach and wetlands from the lodge. The food is delicious and fresh. For us, the shared dinner was an addition. Lots of beautiful stories and encounters. We will definitely come back! recommended!
