Photo Expedition Antarctica
WildPhoto Travel has organised six photo expeditions to Antarctica - in 2014, 2016, 2017 (2x), 2019 and 2024. On all these photo expeditions, we have chartered the full ship with 50-70 passengers to optimise the photographic opportunities. We hope in the future to offer more photo expeditions to Antarctica with approximately 70 passengers, which in today's market would be described as a “small” group. Below you can find some information about how a typical WildPhoto Expedition to Antarctica could look like.
The main focus of WildPhoto photography expeditions to Antarctica would be penguins, seabirds, seals, landscapes, and ice. We will schedule longer stops than usual when going ashore to provide participants with enough time to get excellent pictures. We use zodiac boats to get ashore or when searching for wildlife at sea.
