A uncomparable photo adventure

Join this photographic adventure inside a Natural Reserve in the foothills of the Santiaguito Volcano. We will camp at a viewpoint overlooking the most active volcano in Guatemala, surrounded by spectacular scenery!

 

Apart from landscape photography, we will photograph a great variety of wild birds. On two canopy cables you can experience the birds' perspective, soaring through the treetops. At night we go into the forest with a local guide, looking for nocturnal fauna, highlighting the Morelet's Frog.

 

Suitable for all levels, from beginner to advanced!

 Sharing with other passionate photographers will help you take your photography to the next level. To be better prepared, the workshop includes a theoretical preparation by zoom. Don't miss this varied adventure in a dream location.
