ICELAND - a place where fire shakes hands with ice. Don't let the infinite beauty of Iceland escape you, all during the 8-day photo-expedition. Experience the magic of Iceland, where nature writes its own script and therefore often changes it. The "lunar island" in the Atlantic Ocean with a Nordic climate is a real European exotic. The land of fire and ice, green moss and black lava is full of roaring waterfalls, slumbering volcanoes, vast glaciers and erupting geysers - a true photographer's paradise.

​

Why is this tour special? Because we will spend the entire time in the wild interior of Iceland – in places that regular photographers can't reach. Throughout the tour, we will have modified vehicles at our disposal, allowing us to ford rivers and traverse difficult terrain. However, even with these vehicles, we won't be able to get everywhere. We will have to reach some places on foot and sleep in tents. It will always be safe, and you will be guided by two experienced guides the entire time. Therefore, you can be sure that you will take exceptional photos from our hiking photo tour!

​

Why did we choose this particular date for the expedition? June is the time when Iceland is extremely photogenic. It is the period when summer begins, which means landscapes with freshly melted water and vibrant green colors. 

​

We will personally help you capture the best possible images during our photography tour. Two experienced lecturers who know the photographed places very well will be at your disposal the whole time. You can therefore be sure that you will always be in the right place at the right time. In addition, tour leaders will be at your disposal 24/7 during the entire expedition. They will pass on their valuable knowledge, thanks to which they are internationally recognized on the photography scene.

TOUR ITINERARY

DAY 1

(June 23.)

During the first day of our tour, we will pick you up at Keflavik International Airport. Together, we will transfer to our first accommodation, where we will stay for the first night.

Iceland highlands

DAY 2

(June 24.)

During day 2 we will visit the majestic Haifoss waterfall (from canyon side), the surroundings of the lunar lakes Hnausapollur and Ljótipollur, hiden canyon Sigöldugljúfurglacial rivers that look like something from another planet from a bird's-eye view, and other places whose names we will reveal during the photo tour itself. Thanks to this, you will take away exceptional photographs and experiences from this day, which few people have when visiting Iceland!

DAY 3

(June 25.)

On the third day of our expedition, we will visit one of the most fascinating places on earth. A beautiful yet easy trek through the most stunning part of Landmannalaugar awaits us. We will sleep in a camp directly beneath the "rainbow-looking" hills of Landmannalaugar, allowing you to fully enjoy their atmosphere. Of course, we won't miss the hot springs located nearby our camp.

DAYS 4-5

(June 26. - 27.)

During the fourth and fifth days of our expedition, we will explore the most interesting places in Þórsmörk National Park in Iceland's interior. This park is known for its views of moss-covered mountains and numerous intertwined glacial river meanders. During these days, we will once again embark on a few easy hikes to locations where you will take extraordinary photos that look like they are from another planet!

DAYS 6-7

(June 28. - 29.)

We dedicate the sixth and seventh day to exploring one of the most beautiful areas of the interior of Iceland. We will pass the area between Þórsmörk National Park to Lake Langisjór. This area is full of amazing places that we have discovered over the years of exploring Iceland. And we will take you there. We're sure you'll be blown away by them!

DAYS 8-9

(June 30. - July 1.)

We devote the last 2 days of our expedition to discovering interesting compositions in the exceptional Þakgil Canyon. In addition to it, we will also look at some classic places on the south coast. Rich processing lessons await you. On the last day of our expedition, we will transport you to the airport in Keflavík on time, which will end our photo tour.

OUR HAPPY CLIENTS

Vestrahorn_3k.jpg
Great workshop! It was my first group photography tour, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the organization and the relaxed atmosphere within the group. Everything was perfectly prepared, the theoretical presentations, and recordings of the post-processing are excellent. I gained a lot of new skills, and I thought I already knew quite a few things. Thank you very much for a fantastic tour, and I'm sure it won't be the last!
