Focused Expeditions

Adventure and Outdoors Tours

Focused Expeditions runs tours for people that are passionate about photography, to make sure they get the shot, the right light, the right composition, the right settings on their camera, and, have a beautiful travel experience at the same time. Tours are for all levels of photographers, whether it be people just starting out as amateurs and wanting to be able to learn, right through to the semi pro or the serious amateur.

They’re about being able to get people out to those little places that you just can get to, that are remote and most people don’t go; the beautiful wildlife, the bird life, the fauna, the flora; it’s all about getting out there and finding those little nooks and crannies, and experience what photography is really all about.”
