Highlights

Photograph wildlife and nature like a pro! Discover our small-group exclusive
photography tours. Over three hours you’ll get unprecedented access to advice
from expert photographers and view Zealandia through a whole new lens.


These tours are for keen beginners, ambitious amateurs, and accomplished
photographers – anyone seeking to capture incredible once-in-a lifetime
moments in nature.


Join Zealandia’s resident photographers on a stroll through the sanctuary to
photograph the very best of New Zealand’s native flora and fauna. Capture
raindrops on fern fronds, light shining through the forest canopy, and the
striking detail and colour of bird feathers.


We will walk at a slow pace, with plenty of time for advice from our resident
photographers and for you to try your best shot. As Zealandia is a wild
environment, every tour will be different. Our photographers will cover
different photography styles depending on what we see on the day. You will
spend time at different locations throughout the sanctuary.


WHAT TO BRING:


  • Sturdy walking shoes
  • Warm clothing layers, sun hat/beanie, waterproof jacket
  • Camera
  • Tripod if you have one
  • Water bottle and snacks
