Photography Tour

Maximum of 6 Participants

Join me for a 14-night small group photography tour which will visit several of Iceland’s “greatest hits” as well as some off the beaten path locations. This will include 3 nights on Grimsey Island which is widely regarded as the best place in Iceland to photograph puffins and the best place in the world to photograph puffins in flight.  Bird photography will be a major emphasis of the tour, but there will also be some landscape photo ops, some general sightseeing, and some insights into Icelandic culture along the way courtesy of our excellent Icelandic guide.

Photography will be the driving force behind our activities and schedule, but this trip has also been enjoyed in the past by non-photographers who were interested in birding, hiking, or just nature and the outdoors in general.
