Our photo tours

I believe in fateful encounters. Sitting on a mountaintop during a late summer hike in Austria, I wondered if the peaks in the distance could be the famous peaks of the Dolomites. As soon as I opened Facebook, the Dolomites photo tour popped up. I didn't think twice about signing up! Before we left, we received useful tips on equipment, an itemised list of suitcase contents, really thinking of everything (I'll come back to you with a lock of hair). The programme was very well planned, we took all the time we could to visit the spots that had been thrown up by the net earlier. If there was somewhere we couldn't go, we had a plan B with an immediate response! Krisz and Zsolt showed a new perspective with their amazing drone footage, infecting a few members of the team:-) I had never used filters before, but they convinced me of their usefulness. I can't say that I have learned, but I have improved a lot in this field! As photographers, you are true professionals, tour guides with a great sense of humour, understanding and patience! Stay like that forever! The team was excellent, everyone was very helpful! I learned a lot not only about photography, but also about drinking wheat beer, that there IS an app for everything, about the stability of the one-legged alpine cows, and other really useful everyday questions:-) I've been looking at photography courses for a long time, but these few days have confirmed that I don't need one! Thank you for everything, I believe this was not my only experience with you!

It was a great experience to spend 5 days with the BestPhotoTour team! Both the places visited and the organisers exceeded my expectations. We had a great team of people with whom I had a great time not only during the photoshoots but also during the dinners we had together. Krisztián and Zsolt were extremely helpful throughout the trip! We asked them a lot of questions during the shoot, but they were tireless 😊. They took us to places and times that really made you feel like you just had to press the shutter button to get the perfect shot. I learned a lot from them during these 5 days, both technically and practically. I didn't miss a single day of the trip. How could I not, as we were able to photograph sunrises and sunsets in perfect lighting conditions every day! The only thing we missed was star photography, but we'll make up for it next time! Because there will be a next time 😉! Thank you both for the experience of a lifetime (and photos)!

Hello! Let me tell you about the few days we spent together in the Dolomites: I have always wanted to experience the magic of the Dolomites. I have always been fascinated by the pictures taken there. The magic of the Dolomites has always fascinated me. How to be in the right place at the right time? The way the Best Photo Touros do it! We were always in the right place at the right time! I've been taking photos for a relatively long time, but they helped me when I needed it, with the right settings and the right tools! Travel, accommodation, etc.? Everything went like clockwork. All we had to worry about was the photography. We were always there before sunset, before sunrise, in the best possible locations. So by the time the "lights came on" we just had to expose. In addition to the experiences, I wanted to take pictures that I could print out and hang on my wall and be proud to show my family and friends. Some of the pictures will, I hope, be "put on the wall" in international competitions. I will certainly travel with them.

This was not the first time I went to take photos with Bestphototour. I also took part in the tour of Norway, so it’s no coincidence that I chose them again. Why was this trip a huge experience again? Because he had everything he needed. Great organization, maximum attention and of course the venue. I can't imagine a more interesting place than Iceland. It was everything we could expect from nature. The weather from 8 degrees C to 27 degrees, rain, wind, beautiful sunshine, sea, mountain, flowering field, ice, volcano continue? All I can say is, if you’re not afraid of challenges, if you don’t want to be in a hotel, if you’re curious about a fantastic country and want to photograph this, then this is the place for you.

I love to take photos, but nature photography has not been one of my highlights so far. Nonetheless, I stood with great desire for the Icelandic adventure. It may seem commonplace for every photographer to dream of getting here, but this tour exceeded all my expectations, which was due to Zsolt and Krisztián in addition to the wonderful sights. Site selection, organization, flexibility, service, professional support, ideas, patience, all 5 *. As a passenger, I had no choice but to accommodate and try to capture the sight unfolding before us. I think anyone who loves to take photos and really want to focus on photography during a trip should have it with the guys at least once, but beware it can easily be followed by more hikes than I probably have…

This was the first time I had embarked on a photography tour. I saw Zsolt's pictures of Lofoten and then I decided that I should see this too. The preparation of the tour was already great, Zsolt drew our attention to all the important things, what to take with us, what to expect, how long the trip will take, he helped to get the filters, the photo gloves, the heating pads. This careful preparation was typical of the whole trip. We went to well thought out, planned locations, always changing according to the weather. We got to know a beautiful landscape and were able to take photos. I never thought white snow had that much color. It glows in the rising sun, in blue hours all purple sometimes yellow sometimes green, this must be seen and captured. We also received professional help before, during and after photography. There were three of us, so Zsolt had time for everyone and even after dinner he enthusiastically explained the mysteries of photoshop. The week was practically all about photography. It was a very good mood tour that I will always be happy to think back to, I learned a lot and got richer with a wonderful experience.

The photo tour of Lofoten was a challenge for me in many ways. I don’t like winter, and I’m learning digital photography right now. Every minute of the tour was a great experience. With his usual calm precision, Zsolt thought of everything he had organized. And Lofoten is amazing. The color of the water and mountains as well as the lights change every minute due to the rapidly changing weather and the sun moving on the low slopes. Zsolt took us to the best places for photographers - morning-noon-evening - explained the current settings. Sometimes we were so fascinated by photography that we didn’t even notice it was raining in the rain, snow, or ice. And when we ran into our red house by the water, the photoshop course began. I didn't like the winter now either, so next summer we will go to Iceland with Zsolt.

It was a very good decision to join the Best Photo Tour team during the tour in Lofoten, Norway. I can only recommend it to everyone. It was one of the best, most beautiful, most exciting experiences of my life. I learned a lot about photography, Zsolt and Krisztián helped us with their great experience. The community and atmosphere were great too. We visited beautiful places, focusing specifically on the photographer’s attractions. It was an experience of a lifetime, next time I will choose them!

I am very happy to have been a member of the 2021 Icelandic team. What did I like best? It’s hard to articulate, because by the time I describe it, another memory is coming up. Lights, colors, flowery meadows, black sand, green mossy mountains, the light of a working volcano, geysers, glaciers, waterfalls, a magical landscape that changes every kilometer, the weather that changes every ten minutes. When the sun shines and it rains suddenly, the Icelanders are not angry, “because it’s just a wet sunshine” and the photographers say, “so now everything will be nicer…” You would stop every minute to take pictures in a different mood, and if it wasn’t always an option, we folded, “then next year when we return”. The dynamism of our perfect organization and tour leaders - Zsolt and Krisztián - and their fanaticism towards photography captivated our tireless team with a good atmosphere. The 8 days soon flew away.

I think an Icelandic photo tour is on the boots list of almost every nature photographer. The country itself, this beautiful island is impressive for an "average" traveler - well, even for a photographer! With the comprehensive attention and guidance of Krisz and Zsolt, it was easy to prepare, the administration and procurement went smoothly - so all that was left was the excitement before leaving, no worries! In Iceland, too, everything went super, if there was a change / problem, they were already on the solution. It was a special experience that not during the planning, but during our trip, photography was already a functioning - and quite "easily" accessible - volcano, and with that it became a part of our lives! Special thanks to them for understanding my featured passion for this attraction - and hiking together we had a huge experience (and pictures!). We saw so many miracles in 8 days! However, this is not enough - as there are still so many wonderful places on the island, the tour was not enough for half (although more than 1,500 pictures were taken)! We will definitely go back if we have the opportunity!
