This is not your father’s Vietnam. Things have changed, and fast. Vietnam is one of SE Asia’s fastest-growing economies; our visit here will provide plenty of evidence. But there is also lots of history on display in Old Vietnam, with substantial French colonial influence and remnants of the American War everywhere. The Vietnamese people and their culture are what set this stunningly beautiful country apart. Capturing this in photos is what makes this photo tour so special. 

This impressively resilient country will surprise you at every corner. Not only is it physically beautiful, but it’s also historically fascinating, and the people have a charm about them that will leave you with photographs and memories forever.

The Vietnam that is emerging today may well surprise you. It’s found a way to embrace its history while still managing to grow at a pace that is envied all over SE Asia. We will experience the legendary Vietnam hospitality, bear witness to its beautiful people, and breathe in its culture through historical sites and incredible beauty. With 1000-year-old cities that appear both ancient and incredibly modern at the same time, it’s easy to see how this country will become one of the most important places in the region.

What you think you knew about Vietnam will be changed by your journey with us. You will come away with a new belief that Vietnam is a changed country. Join us on this adventure, and see why Vietnam has become THE place to visit in Asia.

This adventure is designed not only to guide you to the most photogenic locations carefully planned for the best light but to aid you in mentally visualizing a scene before capturing the decisive moment. We aim to raise your awareness and spark your creativity so that you not only go home with images to be proud of but use your newfound skills to improve and expand your photographic technique. Apart from the technical aspect of learning your camera settings and capabilities, you will learn how to turn an ordinary image into an extraordinary one by using your creativity. 

In addition, you will become knowledgeable on how to survey the landscape, utilize and approach your environment, photograph people indigenous to the region, and the cultural considerations and challenges of photographing in a foreign country. Our time together will include individual and group discussions, inspiring ideas, and great fun. Join us in Vietnam for the adventure of a lifetime.
