Find Your Next Photography Trip

I highly recommend the Southeast Alaska tour for anyone interested in a relaxing, enjoyable, and highly productive nature and wildlife tour. The photo opportunities are varied and present throughout the day. In between photographing a great variety of wildlife, as you motor from anchorage to anchorage you have the opportunity to photography amazing and changing landscape from snow capped mountain to icebergs. My favorite Akari tour of the 5 taken so far.

Seeing Mongolia with Kevin was a dream come true. The photography opportunities were plentiful! It was so much more that I expected. We were able to meet the locals, learn about their culture, and fully experience Mongolia. If you are going to go to Mongolia, go with Kevin. His experience with the country and access to the locals is second to none.

David is a fabulous teacher with a remarkable ability to articulate exactly what he sees when composing a photograph. It’s as if he lends you his eyes for the moment, giving you the clarity and understanding to see the scene in an entirely new way. I learned an incredible amount from him about photographing people and landscapes. Just as importantly, David brought kindness, humor, perspective, and a sense of fun to even the more arduous parts of travel, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. I can’t wait to join other workshops that he leads.

I had no idea walking safaris were even possible in Namibia, and getting to do two of them was easily one of the most exciting, heart-pounding highlights of the trip—I’m so grateful I got to experience it.

Kevin ran a fantastic tour. His knowledge of the area and connections with the locals made for many great photo opportunities and awesome memories.

Elated doesn't even begin to cover it!!! My wife and I recently traveled with Akari Photos Tours in Newfoundland, and the experience exceeded every expectation. James and Mindy went above and beyond to accommodate our needs — and I mean every single day — bending over backwards to make sure we each got what we came for. I'm not a photographer by any stretch, while my wife is, so our needs were pretty different. Didn't matter — James and Mindy made sure we both had multiple opportunities to capture the moment, whether that meant thousands of iPhone shots for me and indelibly burning memories for me, or serious camera work for Rose. They read the room perfectly and adjusted for both of us (and the others on the tour) without missing a beat. Beyond the photography, the views were simply breathtaking — the kind that get burned into your permanent memory for life. There was something deeply satisfying about just sitting quietly and taking it all in. If you're considering a Newfoundland tour, or any other for that matter, do yourself a favor and book with Akari Photos. James and Mindy don't just lead a tour — they crafted and executed perfectly on an unforgettable life changing experience!
