David Metcalf and I are heading back to Alaska for the fifth time as we embark on yet another unforgettable journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Alaska with our Alaska Photo Tour in August 2025.
This exclusive tour is designed for photography enthusiasts who seek to capture the untouched beauty of Alaska’s wilderness, majestic mountains, pristine glaciers, abundant wildlife, and connect with the local friendly Alaskan residents. This photography tour will be suitable for photographers who love to shoot landscapes and wildlife. The tour promises an immersive and educational experience, providing you with extraordinary opportunities to capture awe-inspiring images
John Muir a famous American explorer spent some time in Alaska many years ago and made the comment that in all your travels you should leave Alaska to last because nothing else will compare with its grandeur and beauty.
David Metcalf visited Alaska twice in 1979 and 1981, and fell in love with this mighty land. Having travelled to many countries since, he can fully understand what John Muir was getting at.
- Witness the grandeur of the Alaska Range, including the iconic Denali, the highest peak in North America.
- Capture the ethereal beauty of the Talkeetna and Wrangell Mountain chain known for their snow-capped peaks and dramatic vistas.
- Experience one of the most stunning drives in North America between Palmer and Glenallen, the gateway to the Wrangell – St Elias National Park.
- We will drive from Anchorage to the Kenai peninsula an area of stunning natural beauty.
- At this time of the year it’s possible ( but not guaranteed ) to see the Northern Lights , especially in the Fairbanks area.
