What’s included in Adventure prices?
EVERYTHING!
Well almost! Just get yourself to our meeting point and we'll take care of the rest. Our workshops are all-inclusive. We handle all your accommodation, gourmet meals, drinks, and expert tuition. All you need to do is sit back and enjoy your photographic adventure! That's what our participants like most about our Adventures. They book the Adventure and we handle the rest.
What fitness level is required?
A good level of fitness is always best to ensure you can participate fully in the workshop and have a fantastic time. If you're unsure, just give us a call and we can discuss it.
We cater for the majority of people who don't want to walk too far or do anything too stressful!
What camera do I need?
A mirrorless camera or digital SLR is ideal. An iPhone, whilst it takes great photos, won't give you flexibility to capture the photos you see here on this website. You don't need to spend thousands on expensive gear to join the adventure we help you get epic photos with the gear you have.
Do I need travel insurance?
Yes. Travel Insurance is compulsory for multi-day tours. This prevents you from financial loss in the case of falling unwell or the like...
What is the difference between a Private room and shared room?
Our private room option is for those who would like a room to themselves during the adventure.
Our shared room option is also called "Twin share" and is for 2 people sharing the same room (separate beds).
You can either request to room with someone you know or simply book in yourself and we can match you with another suitable twin sharer of the same sex. Any questions, call John on 0427004276
Couples: Please let us know if you're a couple and we can arrange a king or queen bed also.
Adventure Payment Details
To secure your place, simply pay a deposit and then we’ll be in touch to customise a payment plan for your needs.
What’s not included?
Not much! Once you arrive on location we joke that you could literally loose your wallet and it wouldn't matter! Expenses outside the workshop fee is generally your personal purchases like souvenirs…
How experienced do I need to be?
None at all, to be honest. The reason you come on a adventure like this is to learn and grow as a photographer, so we'd expect you not to know everything! However, some knowledge of photography is a bonus.
What other equipment should I bring?
Tripod, laptop, clothes and toiletries. You don't need much. A full gear list is included in all itineraries. You can down load this via each workshop page.
We also email more details later to ensure you are as prepared as possible.
What type of accommodation do we stay in?
We always look for the best possible locations for our accommodation and, if possible, book 4-5 star accommodation with great food and coffee (and an extensive wine list! Joking!!).
That said, in some remote locations there's not as many choices. That said, if you have ever toured with us, you know that the accommodation is always amazing.
The accommodation details for each tour can be found by downloading the PDF on each adventure page.
How many guides are on each tour?
Our tours operate with 2 guides to maximise the support and experience we can offer you. This is rare but makes all the difference to your experience.
