Landscape Photography FAQs

What can I expect from a landscape photography tour with Penda?

Each tour is a guided, small-group photography experience designed to help you capture the essence of remarkable landscapes. You’ll spend focused time in the field with expert photographers, receive personalized tuition, and explore carefully chosen locations at the best times for light and atmosphere.

Are these tours suitable for photographers of all levels?

Yes. Whether you’re a beginner wanting to understand your camera better or an experienced photographer refining your style, our professional leaders adapt their guidance to your skill level. The emphasis is always on practical learning and creative development.

What destinations can I travel to?

We run our landscape photography tours around the world – from Iceland and Greenland to Namibia and Chile. We select destinations known for their unique light, texture, and form – from dramatic mountain ranges and desert dunes to remote coastlines and vast plains. Each itinerary is built to offer a balance of iconic viewpoints and lesser-known locations ideal for thoughtful, uninterrupted photography.

How much time is spent photographing in the field?

Field time is central to every trip. Expect early mornings, golden hours, and flexible schedules that respond to light and weather. While days can be full, we also build in time to rest, review images, and discuss creative approaches with your guide. Obviously each trip has a different itinerary, which you can find on the individual tour pages. We’re here to advise you on finding the trip that’s right for you!

Who leads the landscape photography tours?

All tours are led by professional photographers with extensive field experience and teaching expertise. They’re passionate about helping you develop both your technical skills and your artistic vision, while sharing insights into composition, light, and storytelling. You can find information on each tour leader on the tour pages. Make sure to join a tour that’s guided by someone you really want to learn from.

What equipment should I bring?

A DSLR or mirrorless camera, a sturdy tripod, and a range of lenses (from wide-angle to telephoto) are recommended. Before each tour, we’ll send a detailed packing list suited to the specific destination – including filters, memory cards, and weather protection gear.

Do I need to be physically fit?

Most tours involve light to moderate walking over natural terrain. We’ll always outline the level of activity required for each destination so you can choose a trip that matches your comfort and fitness level.

What's included in the price of these trips?

Typically, the cost includes accommodation, transport during the tour, most meals, and all photography tuition. International flights and personal expenses are not included. Each trip page provides full details of inclusions and exclusions.

What if I also want to do wildlife photography?

While some of our trips are purely focused on one focus area (landscape or wildlife), some tours offer a mix. For instance, our Namibia Photo Tour and our Madagascar Photo Tour – these combine excellent landscape photography opportunities wildlife and cultural photography.
