the journeys...

Our 8 and 5-day photo safaris are mainly aimed at nature and outdoor photography enthusiasts or working professionals.  Along the way, participants will have the opportunity to visit a diversity of unique ecosystems of Northern and Western Argentina, in places located off the usual beaten tracks.  As photographers, we need time to shoot our film and search for the best view points to frame our art. 

Above all, our safaris are about getting you safely and comfortably to the right place, at the correct time of day and to let you stay there for all the necessary time you need to capture the magnificence of nature at its best.

An experienced photographer and a professional ecologist will guide you through the world of both field photography and nature. All destinations will be reached by suitable and secure vehicles, thus keeping climbing, trekking and walking to a minimum. At the end of each day, expect comfortable accommodation provided at different hotels and inns that preserve the colonial architecture of the locations visited.

Within brief distances, we'll take you on routes that cover different ecosystems so you will have the chance to photograph a series of unique geographical backdrops, wildlife, textures, colors, human activity and climatic conditions.  These vary from low rainfall deserts and/or semi deserts on Western and North-Western Argentina to humid mountain grasslands, and extremely dry and cold high-altitude ecosystems of the Andes. Subtropical mountain cloudy forests will not be overlooked, either. Along this path, one can see heaps of cacti, shrubs and ephemeral plants; temperate thorny xerophytic woodland; humid mountain grasslands, where scattered tussock grasses flourish and herbs alternate with granitic outcrops.

Besides the endless great outdoor photography opportunities, we will visit people working hand in hand with nature as part of their daily activities. You can capture images of farmers, dwellers and other people working along irrigated vineyards, wine factories, cattle management, charcoal production, goat and cow breeding, salt extraction, sugar cane plantations, small scale wine factories, vineyards, llama breeding, cattle ranching, pottery, agriculture, hand knitting, and many other typical human activities in all their natural essence.

For a grand finale to our expedition, a selection of the best photographs taken by the participants will be exhibited at an art gallery. While enjoying an elegant cocktail party we will all have the opportunity to share this incredible experience with local guests, invited for the occasion. Each participant will be sent a small personalized photographic book by mail to remember the trip. And of course, loads of pictures will be uploaded to our website for everyone to see.
