2026 Itineraries

Travel with serious photographers.

Three small-group expeditions a year, each co-led by a working nature photographer published in this journal. Long days, no rushed transfers, and itineraries built entirely around bird activity.

Antarctica & South Georgia
Southern Ocean

Antarctica & South Georgia

Two weeks aboard an expedition vessel through the Drake Passage to the largest seabird colonies on the planet — half a million king penguins on a single beach.

From Ushuaia we cross the Drake under the wandering albatross, then work south through the Falklands and South Georgia before reaching the Antarctic Peninsula. Daily Zodiac landings, on-deck photography workshops at dawn, and the kind of seabird density that simply cannot be experienced from land.

Kruger & the Zululand Coast

From Kruger's bushveld to the wetlands of iSimangaliso, a transect through one of the richest avifaunas in Africa — 500+ species in twelve days.

Open-vehicle game drives at first light through southern Kruger, then a slow descent into the Lebombo Mountains and out to the Indian Ocean wetlands of iSimangaliso. Dedicated photographic hides, river-mouth boat work, and the chance at lifers in three distinct biomes inside a single trip.
