Our History

Since we opened our hearts to the natural world, photography and adventure has led us to travel through dazzling places, to meet unbeatable creatures and to live moments that will never be erased from our memories.
After continuous years of efforts to register these magical places and their biodiversity, we have felt the need to create a project whose objectives are to reveal, care for and transmit this passion and experiences to others. Thus, in 2016, the dream of Photo Wildlife Tours arises, an initiative with which we intend to arouse the astonishment of those who accompany us to know nature; and, at the same time support various research, education, conservation and sustainable tourism programs.

 

 

Why travel with us?

In addition of being photographers, we are biologists and naturalists with extensive field experience forged over several years. The purpose of a trip is not the fact of seeing the animal and photographing it, but also transmitting knowledge about the characteristics, behavior and importance of each being we observe. You will be amazed by the natural history behind each living being, the result of millions of years of evolution.

In addition, with each trip you contribute to the development of the different conservation programs in which we are involved.

Our destinations

Relax! We also make sure that the accommodations and customer service are impeccable. We search carefully for sites that combine comfort and nature.

Likewise, the tour packages we offer were prepared after experiencing them personally as guests or tourists.

And, of course, what is fundamental for us on each trip, is to take our favorite companion: laughter.
