Upcoming Photography Tours

with Robert van Koesveld

As a photography tour leader I work with local tour companies together with very experienced local photographers. We work together to plan the trip after I have personally scouted the best locations and have got a good understanding of the best way to manage the logistics. We plan the itinerary together and then the local operator manages the logistics. Bookings are made by you directly with the operator in the appropriate currency to avoid all the currency risks that might otherwise add to costs and complexity.

In Japan I work with Spark Photography and my friend Daisuke Kondo. Dai and I have explored Japan together over many years and work well together. We have made six winter trips to Hokkaido so far and love being there. It is different every year but always a delight.

In Ladakh I work with Voygr Expeditions who are such skilled operators and passionate photographers.

Behzad Larry really understands the long history of the silk road and is a passionate and skilled photographer. He is a professional photographer, historian, and adventurer. An avid explorer, Behzad specializes in documenting the remote reaches of the world. Through his travel photography he covers wildlife, portraiture, and landscapes in the high Himalayas, Central Asia, and the Tibetan Plateau.

Abdul Rashid is a mountaineer, photographer, and Voygr’s Himalayan expert. Originally from a small village in Nubra Valley by the Indo-Chinese border, he speaks 8 languages. 

In Bhutan I work with Namgay from Illuminating Tours together with his wife Debbie and his fantastic crew. My wife and I first met Namgay many years ago and subsequently travelled Bhutan with him at length researching for our book Bhutan Heartland:Travels in the Land of the Thunder Dragon Fremantle Press. We’ve put our next planned trip on hold while the virus is making travel complicated.
