Dates, Prices & Info
Payment & Refunds
Trip prices are per person based on double occupancy and are given in U.S. dollars. Please read our Payment & Refund Policy here.
Group Size
We purposely limit our group sizes on all trips, and this is especially so on photography adventures. With our group capped at just twelve travelers, you’re assured plenty of personalized attention when you need it, as well as space for your equipment. In a small group, we can be nimble, flexible and able to position ourselves to maximize the best photo opportunities, departing early and lingering later in search of the best light and subject matter.
Our Chartered Flights
To minimize long overland drives and complex logistics, we use private flights between key destinations. These flights provide direct access to remote regions, maximizing comfort and time in the field while ensuring a smoother overall travel experience.

Internal air: Private charter flight from Gander to Blanc Sablon (this will be listed separately on our invoicing).
Mandatory Insurance
Since the areas we travel to are remote and wild (that's why we go there!), we require that all guests have, at minimum, medical evacuation insurance for this program. This is for the safety of all guests. We require that your chosen independent insurance plan includes at least $250,000 in medical evacuation coverage.
To protect your investment and to provide peace of mind while you travel, we also strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance. Plans may cover everything from medical treatment to trip cancellations and delays and lost luggage. Please contact our office if you would like more information about the medical evacuation and comprehensive travel insurance policies we offer by calling 800-543-8917.
Getting There & Getting Home
This trip begins in St. John's, Newfoundland, and ends in Deer Lake, Newfoundland. You must arrive at St. John's International Airport no later than 4:00 pm on Day 1 in order to attend the group welcome dinner at The Alt Hotel.
For guests who come in early, recommended hotels will be included in your pre-departure materials.
If you plan to arrive on Day 1, please ensure your flight arrives by the required time so you do not miss the welcome dinner.
You may depart from Deer Lake at any time on the final day.
