Definitely the best way to see and photograph the islands.

I loved that the group was limited to just 7 people — it made it easy to ask questions and get tips from the guide. Every location was stunning, and the itinerary was well-paced. Definitely the best way to see and photograph the islands.

A fantastic way to discover Lofoten if you don’t have a car.

This was more than just a photo tour — it was a cultural and historical experience as well. Eric explained the stories behind each village, and his knowledge of the best angles and light made my pictures stand out. A fantastic way to discover Lofoten if you don’t have a car.

The scenery we visited on this tour was simply magical – Reine, Hamnøy, and Sakrisøy are postcard-perfect.

The scenery we visited on this tour was simply magical – Reine, Hamnøy, and Sakrisøy are postcard-perfect. Even though the weather was a bit moody, it added drama to the photos! The guide was friendly and full of interesting facts. The stop for lunch at Sakrisøy was a nice touch too.
