The Nature's Light instructors are available for private guiding and tuition, and can create a totally customised photo tour for you. This offers tremendous value and benefits over and above that of our 'normal' workshops and tours. For example:
Through our partnership with the Van De Wiel Travel Group, we have access to competitive accommodation rates, and a full suite of logistics options, allowing us to take you to any destination in the world. We will organise all logistics, transport, accommodation, catering and photographic tuition. All you have to do is relax, enjoy and learn! And take photos, lots of them!
Contact us now to start planning your tailor made photo holiday!
- You get to decide WHERE, to go, WHEN to go, and WHAT you will want to focus on.
- Depending on the size of your group, it may allow for more time available for individual tuition in the field or photo editing.
- As South Africans, enjoying a South African lifestyle which is significantly less expensive than the lifestyle of our European and American colleagues, our daily tuition fees can be comparatively lower than theirs. This allows us to offer the same photographic tour for a lower price, or a better photographic tour for the same price as the tours offered elsewhere.
