Natural Habitat Adventures 2026 Photo Expeditions Catalog

TAKE YOUR NATURE PHOTOS to the Next Level Dear Traveler, What are the images you dream of making? The epic shots that demand patience, optimal light, a rare wild animal sighting?

This can be the year you bring those images to life!

On a Nat Hab Photo Expedition, you’ll travel with guides who are both expert naturalists and accomplished photographers, skilled at personalized coaching. They know how to track wildlife, read animal behavior, and anticipate those fleeting moments that become unforgettable images.

You’ll be in the company of like-minded travelers, too, who don’t mind waiting in the blind for a bird to take flight, or lingering until the last bit of sunset bathes the peaks in a luminous glow.

On itineraries, meticulously crafted with input from our own Photo Expedition Leaders, go far afield of crowds into remote realms and private reserves where wildlife outnumbers people.

These are journeys for passionate photographers. But what matters is not the cost of your gear or a polished portfolio—it’s all about your desire to capture the essence of nature with your camera.

Whether you’re an avid amateur, accomplished intermediate or seasoned pro, Nat Hab Photo Expeditions are your portal to the most immersive nature photography experiences on the planet.

You'll be proud of the images you bring home. And you’ll travel in a way that sustains the animals and places you celebrate in your photos. We call it “conservation travel”—travel that protects, enlightens and inspires.

I invite you to explore our collection of Photo Expeditions. Together, we’ll create once-in-a-lifetime images.

Our Guides Are

Expert Naturalists & Photography Pros As a photographer on a quest for nextlevel wildlife and landscape images, you need a guide who is a gifted artist and image-making coach. But when your subject is nature, that’s not enough: Your guide must also be a highly trained naturalist with expertise in biology, ecology and wildlife behavior, well-honed tracking skills, and interpretive acumen.

Our peerless Photo Expedition Leaders bring all of this to your adventure, including special access to resources from WWF conservation scientists.

Your guide’s in-depth knowledge of the wild world ensures you’ll be poised to capture those rare and fleeting moments that make for images of a lifetime. And the personalized guidance you’ll receive, whatever your ability level, will enhance your craft from composition to post-production.

Exclusive Itineraries Take You Farther Afield

With Nat Hab, your photo opportunities are anything but conventional. From Zodiac outings in the ice-choked fjords of East Greenland to our mobile camps in the middle of Africa’s Great Migration, our Photo Expeditions provide access to settings and subjects you won’t get with other companies or on your own.

Our itineraries get you deeper into wild places for more original imagery.

And our personal connections—with biologists, Indigenous teachers and renowned local photographers—offer experiences not available to the typical traveler with a camera. With slower pacing and long days in the field to chase the best light, we allow time and patience to pursue the shots you covet. And with plenty of room in our vehicles and extra weight allowances on certain flights, we accommodate more of your gear.

Small Groups

for Intimate Photo Encounters Numbers on our Photo Expeditions are strictly limited, ensuring access to remote places and accommodations off-limits to larger groups, for a deeper immersion in nature. Many trips are guided by two Photo Expedition Leaders or supported by highly qualified local guides. As a result, we can often divide into even smaller groups for unobtrusive wildlife encounters—essential for quiet approaches, extended viewing and coveted close-ups.

In smaller groups, we’re able to be flexible—to linger longer when the alpenglow on Denali is exquisite, or to wait patiently for a Bengal tiger to emerge from the underbrush. With fewer numbers, you’ll also get plenty of tailored guidance for your photography process, from help with camera settings to postproduction techniques during evening editing sessions.

Nat Hab's Exclusive

Camps, Lodges, Ships & Innovations At Nat Hab, we’re committed to bringing our travelers life-transforming encounters with nature. And we set things up so that’s exactly what your photos will convey. We’ve created our own collection of exclusive camps, ecolodges, small expedition ships and nature-viewing locations that get you farther out there, away from crowds and commercial tourism, where silence, wonder and wildlife reign.

Whether you're at one of our secluded African safari camps snapping animals gathered at the waterhole in front of your tent, or capturing a portrait of a giant tortoise at our private camp in the Galapagos, or getting video of the northern lights dancing in the Arctic night sky, on a Nat Hab Photo Expedition, you are totally immersed in nature!

Customized Vehicles

for Greater Access & More Comfort The right vehicle plays an important role in a successful nature photo expedition. And we carefully choose the optimal transportation mode for each adventure. Whether you’re photographing polar bears aboard a custom Polar Rover, scouting for wolves in Yellowstone from our North America Safari Cruiser, or capturing a jaguar leaping for a caiman from our river skiff, our vehicles are chosen to grant the best possible access to the shots you seek.

In most cases, smaller vehicles are key, as they get us into more remote places. But we never fill them to capacity, no matter the size. When we're out shooting, everyone gets a window seat and plenty of room for your gear. We also prioritize sustainability, and we’re proud to feature a growing fleet of electric vehicles in multiple destinations.

Experience Is the Luxury

When You're Immersed in Nature When you travel with Nat Hab, the word “luxury” takes on new meaning. While our secluded camps, ecolodges and small ships provide remarkable comfort and amenities, the real luxuries are rare, awe-inducing moments in nature that only a fortunate few will get to photograph.

Capture a whale breaching from your bayfront tent-cabin at Base Camp Greenland, surrounded by raw Arctic wilderness. In the austere alpine of the Indian Himalaya, track elusive snow leopards just beyond our private mountain lodge. At Nat Hab's Alaska Bear Camp, open the glass door of your private cabin to photograph brown bears roaming the beach.

Our accommodations are distinctive in their own right. But the real luxury is how they set you up for the most extraordinary photos you’ll ever pursue!

Conservation Through Exploration Travel with Purpose

Nat Hab is the world’s leading nature travel company. But we’re equally a conservation enterprise. Our mission is conservation through exploration: protecting our planet by inspiring travelers, supporting local communities, and influencing the travel industry through innovative efforts to live more lightly on the Earth.

Conservation travel—including our Photo Expeditions—helps nature and wildlife by encouraging sustainable stewardship of natural habitats. Our dollars provide incomes, education, ranger support, poaching patrols, support for schools and clinics, and hope for the future.

And our partnership with World Wildlife Fund is integral to our mission. Since 2003, Nat Hab and our guests together have given more than $45 million to WWF's work to conserve Earth's most precious and imperiled places.

Learn More: nathab.com/conservation

WWF’s membership travel program is operated by Natural Habitat Adventures (Nat Hab). To date, Nat Hab has provided more than $9 million in support of WWF’s mission and will continue to give 1% of gross sales plus $185,000 annually through 2028.

Empowering Local Communities to Protect Wild Places

Natural Habitat Adventures was launched in 1985, and we soon began taking travelers to see baby harp seals in Quebec. We wanted to show local communities that ecotourism could bring economic sustenance, providing an alternative to hunting the adorable furry “whitecoats.” That model has remained at the heart of our company since. When people find an economic incentive to protect habitats and wildlife, it is a powerful force for conservation.

Human-wildlife conflict is prevalent in many places. Yet when conservationminded scientists, NGOs and ecotourism operators work together with local communities, we can find solutions that protect livelihoods as well as natural resources and wildlife. When you travel on a Nat Hab Photo Expedition, you are part of this success story!

Raising the Bar on

Sustainability

Through Commitment & Innovation Since Nat Hab became the world’s first 100% carbon-neutral travel company in 2007, we have continually tried to shrink our carbon footprint and pursue greater transparency, including the launch of our Carbon Clear Vision program, which breaks down the carbon emissions on every trip.

We’re rolling out a growing electric vehicle fleet, and we are investing in new technology initiatives such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Direct Air Capture. We’ve signed on to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), a global climate action plan aimed at reaching net zero emissions.

We strive to educate our team, travelers, partners and suppliers through our partnership with WWF and in our guide training. Our world still has a long way to go to cut carbon, but it’s an effort we are proud to help lead.

Africa Few places on Earth offer photographers the primal encounters with wildlife you’ll find on our African photo safaris.

Like capturing the golden gaze of a lion, camouflaged in the tawny grass.

Or the dust billowing from the hooves of thousands of wildebeest and zebra migrating across the Serengeti. Or getting a portrait of a contemplative silverback surveying his troop of mountain gorillas in the rainforest. To find and document these rare experiences, a small, unobtrusive group is essential, led by a guide who is both an expert naturalist and an accomplished wildlife photographer. Nat Hab's secluded and intimate camps on private reserves provide proximity to abundant animals, far from crowds. And with our Photo Expedition Leaders’ extensive training and tracking skills, you’ll see and photograph much more.

FOCUS ON A PHOTO EXPEDITION LEADER

Abner Simeon Southern Africa

Abner Simeon’s passion for safari guiding was seeded during his childhood growing up at a lodge in Namibia where his father was a chef and his mother a housekeeper. He attended the small primary school on site and spent all his free time exploring the wonders of the bush before moving to the nearest town for high school. On school holidays, he would join his brother, a ranger, on wildlife drives, an experience that pointed him toward his future career. Landing a job at a safari lodge as a handyman, Abner began to cultivate the knowledge and expertise to become a guide, a role that would indulge his love for nature as his vocation. His dream was realized in 2014, when he was sponsored for a guide training course. He went on to earn the highest certification levels while working at many different camps across Namibia. Abner's venture into photography began in 2016, when he began taking photos using his phone.

Encouraged by how frequently his shots were featured in company newsletters, he invested in photography equipment and his passion took off. So did his infectious passion for sharing the importance of conservation, using safari guiding and photography as his tools.

Capture Wondrous Images of One of Earth's Most Amazing Migrations!

Photo Expedition

• Three In-Depth Visits to Two Separate Migration Groves • Expert Coaching for Butterfly Images from Top Guides • Cultural Encounters in Traditional Mountain Villages One of the world’s most wondrous wildlife photography opportunities features one of its tiniest creatures—the delicate monarch butterfly. Each winter, they migrate by the millions to the fir forests of Mexico’s Central Highlands.

At first glance, the trees appear to be blanketed with rusty autumn leaves. Then, as the sun warms them, they take flight—so many we can actually hear the beating of their wings! Photos are extraordinary, from exquisite closeups to orange clouds of fluttering monarchs against the blue sky. With our expert guide, learn to capture amazing images of this moving phenomenon.

FOCUS ON A PHOTO EXPEDITION LEADER

Cassiano "Zapa" Zaparoli Latin America

Raised on his grandparents’ small farm in Brazil, Zapa’s childhood was shaped by the daily rhythms of cattle, crops and capybaras. Steeped in the wild nature of Brazil’s interior—its rivers, vivid green canopies and the calls of macaws and howler monkeys overhead—Zapa spent every possible moment outdoors, hiking through dense forest, paddling tributaries of the Paraguay River, and learning to track wildlife from elders and field guides. Keen to share his passions, he earned a degree in Tourism Administration from the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, near the Pantanal, where his academic studies dovetailed with his lived experience.

Zapa’s career was launched at one of Brazil’s premier ecolodges, guiding travelers through the Pantanal’s seasonally flooded plains and honing his skills in wildlife photography, particularly the pursuit of elusive species like jaguars and giant otters. He has since led nature expeditions throughout South America, documenting his subjects and encounters in more than 35,000 photographs inspired by his deep knowledge of ecology and his keen eye. From the Galapagos to Patagonia to his native Brazil, a Photo Expedition with Zapa will impart expertise and wonder in equal measures.

Europe Our European photography adventures focus on northern climes where nature is bold and dramatic. In Iceland, just below the Arctic Circle, photograph whales and puffins, moss-covered lava fields, iceberg lagoons, thundering waterfalls, and multicolored mountains in the remote Highlands. Even farther out lies Greenland, where we find stunning Arctic photography in the remote eastern fjords from our deluxe wilderness expedition camp near the ice sheet. In Scotland’s rugged Highlands, capture green peaks, glacier-carved glens and Hebrides beaches where white sand meets turquoise sea and silver sky. Look for red deer and pine marten in ancient Caledonian forest. Human history holds evocative subjects, too, from the Callanish Standing Stones to the 13th-century Eilean Donan castle.

Photo Expedition

• Master Puffin Shots with Extended Photo Sessions • Capture Stunning Landscapes on a Flightseeing Tour • Photograph Remote Volcanic Highlands by 4x4 Iceland holds so much awe for nature photographers, with geological drama and raw physical beauty on an epic scale.

Offshore, whales ply the fjords and seabirds nest in noisy colonies, including the world’s largest population of Atlantic puffins.

No other Iceland photography adventure offers as in-depth an immersion in this wild wonderland.

FOCUS ON A PHOTO EXPEDITION LEADER

Edward Savage Europe, Canada, Asia

Blame the bears: that’s who Edward Savage credits for his career as a Photo Expedition Leader. Proud to be a long-tenured grizzly bear guide in Canada's Great Bear Rainforest, the many hours he spent with these charismatic animals was the impetus to share even more of the wild world he loves with travelers. Raised on Vancouver Island, where he lives today, Edward never camped until high school, when he signed up for an outdoor education program focused on backpacking and kayaking and fell madly in love with wilderness. A college program in coastal adventure tourism launched him into guiding multi-day nature adventures on land and sea. In the process, he became an expert on Canada’s flora, fauna and ecology, as well as an accomplished wildlife photographer. “Spending months sitting in a small boat on a cloudy day in the pouring rain, trying to photograph grizzly bears against a dark forested background, you learn a thing or two about how to get the most out of your camera equipment," he muses.

With Nat Hab since 2016, Edward leads Photo Expeditions to Churchill, Haida Gwaii, Greenland, Iceland and China, enthusiastically sharing his knowledge and photography prowess.

FOCUS ON A PHOTO EXPEDITION LEADER

Surya Ramachandran Asia

Known for his zeal and inquisitiveness, Surya is a photo safari guide who sends his guests home equally enthused—and with extraordinary images to remember their adventures by. Raised in South India, Surya gave up the engineering career he trained for to follow the stronger call of the wild. With a passion for nature and wildlife, his “jungle journey” began in Satpura National Park and Tiger Reserve at an acclaimed safari lodge.

He excelled as a naturalist guide and wildlife photographer, pioneering Central India’s first walking safari and night drives in the park.

Moving to Kanha National Park, where the focus is more tiger-centric, Surya became a tiger expert while continuing to enhance his knowledge of India’s diverse and rare mammals, birds, reptiles and butterflies. He enjoys revealing the little secrets of the jungle to his guests, and his passion for interpretation led him to write India’s first photographic field guide. As a naturalist, documenting wild species is the most important aim behind Surya's photography. Once the initial record is complete, he likes to experiment with capturing unique moments, predictable behaviors, or simply the play of light on his subject.

The Physical Requirements section on each trip page on our website provides important information regarding the physical expectations for that trip. Please read this information carefully. In order to provide a fulfilling experience for all travelers, we must ensure that you are able to perform the required physical activities for your chosen trip, determined solely at Nat Hab’s discretion.

Certain trips may require that you obtain medical approval before departure, and Nat Hab reserves the right to request additional medical information and/or a physical examination prior to or during your trip as a condition of your participation. Additionally, Nat Hab reserves the right to prohibit you from joining or continuing on a trip if, in our opinion, your physical, emotional or behavioral limitations or actions pose or could pose a threat to your safety or enjoyment, or that of other guests or staff, or to the safety of wildlife. In the event you are not permitted to join a trip or are asked to leave a trip in progress as a result, there will be no refund of any portion of the trip price, used or unused, beyond that listed in our cancellation policy nor will Nat Hab be responsible for additional expenses that you incur.

Your Confirmation Documents & Pre-Departure Briefing Upon booking, you will receive a confirmation email and a link to your customized Adventure Portal, which hosts initial documents, including your invoice, trip forms, air travel information, visa and vaccination requirements (if any), and more. Approximately one to two months prior to departure, you will receive a comprehensive PreDeparture Briefing with details about the trip, destination, history and wildlife of the region, what to pack and how best to prepare. We can send your Pre-Departure Briefing electronically if you indicate this preference, or it can be found on your Adventure Portal.

Trip Cancellation & Refund Policy We understand how disappointing it can be if you are forced to cancel or change your long-anticipated adventure. But we, too, plan far ahead before each departure and continuously send nonrefundable payments to hotels and other suppliers. Therefore, we must strictly adhere to our cancellation and trip change

policy for all travelers. We strongly suggest purchasing travel insurance† to help protect your trip payments in the event you must cancel or otherwise change your plans due to one of the listed covered reasons.

The following are the terms of our cancellation and trip change policy: • All cancellations processed 121 or more calendar days prior to departure will incur a $100 cancellation fee per person. Some trips and extensions have nonrefundable deposits.

Please consult the specific trip page on our website for details.

• Cancellations made 61 to 120 calendar days prior to departure are assessed a cancellation fee of 50% of the entire trip price, including internal air, extensions and extra services such as hotel nights.

• Cancellations made 60 calendar days or less prior to departure are assessed a cancellation fee of 100% of the trip price, including internal air, extensions and extra services such as hotel nights.

• Guests traveling on Adventure Cruises must adhere to the payment requirements, cancellation policies and terms and conditions set by the ship owner/operator.

• Custom-designed trips and extensions require a 25% nonrefundable deposit and follow our standard cancellation and trip change policy unless otherwise stated.

• Deposits for a private booking of a scheduled trip or extension where a guest has reserved the entire or partial departure through our Make It Private program are double the listed individual trip and extension deposit amount and are nonrefundable.

• Our Sailing Antarctica adventure has a different policy. Please call us for details.

All cancellations and trip change requests must be made in writing by mail or by email and received and acknowledged by Nat Hab. Travel insurance purchased through Nat Hab is completely nonrefundable after the 10-day review period.

In the event either Nat Hab or the guest changes, reschedules or rebooks a trip or extension, including custom-designed trips and custom-designed extensions, for any reason, including, but not limited to, force majeure, the cancellation and trip change policy as of the date of the original booking shall remain in full force and effect. For example, for any cancellation or trip change received between 61 to 120 calendar days prior to the departure of the originally booked date, a fee of 50% of the entire trip price, including extensions, will apply for the revised date regardless of the lead time of a cancellation of the revised departure date.

Similarly, cancellations or trip changes received less than 60 calendar days prior to the original departure date shall be assessed a fee of 100% of the trip price, including any extensions,

regardless of the lead time of a cancellation of the revised departure date.

Travel Insurance† To help protect your financial liability, we strongly suggest purchasing travel insurance.

Nat Hab has arranged a plan with Arch Insurance Company designed specifically for our guests. Please see the Traveler Resources page on our website for details. We will include the cost of the Natural Habitat Comprehensive Travel Protection Plan option along with detailed information about coverage on your Adventure Portal. Nat Hab asks for your written confirmation of intent to purchase, or confirmation that you decline to purchase, such travel insurance. All insurance purchased is nonrefundable after the 10-day review period.

Medical evacuation insurance, either purchased through Nat Hab as a part of the Natural Habitat Comprehensive Travel Protection Plan or on its own, or through a third party, is required for some of our trips. Please consult the Dates, Prices & Info section of each individual trip page on our website. †The travel insurance coverage we offer is currently underwritten by Arch Insurance Company, NAIC#11150, and policies are administered by Arch Insurance Solutions Inc. A full description of coverage is available online at naturalhabitat.archinsurancesolutions.com and you may contact Arch Insurance Solutions Inc. at 1-844-872-4163 if you have questions. The travel insurance coverage we offer is subject to change. For the most up-to-date information, visit nathab.com/terms.

Getting to or from a Nat Hab Trip Nat Hab guests are responsible for getting to and from the start and end points of their trip, which includes abiding by all government entry and exit requirements, including those related to COVID-19 and visas, and for arriving by the designated start time on the first day of the trip.

Should guests be delayed for any reason in getting to or departing from a trip, or must leave a trip early, Nat Hab is not liable for any additional costs incurred in joining or leaving the trip (such as costs for accommodations or transportation), nor will guests receive a refund for any missed portion of the trip as a result of late arrival, early departure, quarantine or other illness. Visit nathab.com/health for the most up-to-date health- and safety-related protocols.

Nat Hab’s Travel Desk As an exclusive service for our guests, Nat Hab offers a full-service Travel Desk that is available to assist you in purchasing international (and Alaska) air tickets and certain hotel reservations.

Please note that Nat Hab’s Travel Desk does not book flights within the continental United States or Canada and cannot book flights with airline miles. Please call our office at 800-543-8917 for more details.

Document Requirements & Vaccinations In order to join a Nat Hab trip, you are responsible for obtaining and maintaining all required documents and vaccinations and accepting and following all health and safety protocols, which may be found at nathab.com/ plan-trip. These can include, but are not limited to, valid passports, visas and vaccinations.

Additionally, you are responsible for knowing and meeting the entry and transit requirements of all countries you will be visiting or traveling through in relation to your trip. For current passport and visa requirements, please visit travel.state.gov as well as individual country websites and/or embassies in the countries visited. For up-to-date vaccine information, please visit cdc.gov/travel. For individual country entry requirements, please visit the individual country websites and/or embassies.

Single Travelers We encourage single travelers to join us! If you are traveling on your own, you can request either a single room or a roommate match. Single-room accommodations are subject to a single-room surcharge, which guarantees a private room without a roommate (where available). See individual trip pages on our website for pricing details. In order to keep our single-room surcharges as low as possible, on occasion, single rooms may be smaller than double-occupancy rooms. Single-room accommodations are not available on all trips. Additionally, we cannot always guarantee single accommodations, even after reservations and confirmations have been made.

If you request a roommate match, we will do our best to find a same-sex roommate; however, if we cannot arrange a match, you will not be charged a single-room surcharge. Please consult specific trip pages on our website for details. On all custom-designed trips, 100% of the single-room surcharge will always apply, as there is no opportunity to arrange a roommate match.

Family Travel & Age Limits Nat Hab welcomes families on certain trips and offers select scheduled family departures. On certain trips and most family departures, children 6 years and older are welcome. Due to safety regulations, physical limitations and concerns regarding group dynamics, we do not allow children younger than 6 on our trips. Additionally, some trips, or specific activities within a trip, have higher minimum age requirements. We strongly encourage you to call our office to speak with an Adventure Specialist about the specific requirements of the trip you’re considering so you can make an informed decision about your child’s participation. On all trips, the parent or legal guardian of children under age 18 must sign the Minor Permission Waiver requiring guardians to ensure that children in their care do not place themselves, other guests, staff or wildlife in harm’s way, or jeopardize the enjoyment of the trip for the group as a whole.

Language Policy All of Nat Hab’s trips are conducted in English.

You must have a proficient understanding of the English language in order to fully enjoy all aspects of the adventure and, most importantly, to fully understand all rules and safety instructions provided by the Photo Expedition Leader(s). We are unable to provide translated pre-trip materials or translators during the trip.

Dietary Restrictions & Allergies With ample notice, Nat Hab can generally accommodate common dietary restrictions on most of our trips, such as vegetarian, dairy-free and gluten-free (though it may not be possible to accommodate celiac disease—please ask an Adventure Specialist for more information), though limitations on food variety may exist.

However, given the nature of adventure travel, and the often-remote nature of our trips, Nat Hab cannot guarantee that allergens or items on your restriction list will not be present at restaurants, accommodations or elsewhere during a trip. Ultimately, you must take responsibility for your own health and safety and understand that we cannot guarantee against cross-contamination or airborne transmission of allergens during the trip.

World Wildlife Fund Since 2003, World Wildlife Fund, Inc. (“WWF”), the world’s leading environmental conservation organization, has partnered with Natural Habitat Adventures to provide conservation travel experiences in the planet’s most captivating wild places. WWF selected Nat Hab as its travel partner because of our long-standing commitment to conservation and the high quality of our adventures. To date, Nat Hab has provided more than $9 million in support of WWF’s mission and will continue to give 1% of gross sales plus $185,000 annually through 2028. Further information is available from Nat Hab. WWF does not own, operate or control Natural Habitat Adventures nor any of the companies or individuals that supply goods or services for the travel described in Nat Hab’s printed materials and website, including, without limitations, hotels, restaurants and transportation whether by air, boat, bus, train, automobile or other vehicle. WWF is not liable for any negligent or willful act or failure to act of any such company or individual not within its control.
