Transportation
Depending on the group size, we will use one or two, 9-seater vans to ensure plenty of space for everyone.

Personal Processing Sessions
The guides will demonstrate the latest processing techniques on a laptop connected to the available tv or monitor in the hotel. A photo from one of the participants or from the guide himself will be used. All sessions will be recorded and shared among the group so everyone can watch the classes back once at home.

Which tour is expected to have the best colors?
Both tours take place during the peak of fall/autumn in the Dolomites which means both tours can expect to have the best fall colors.
What lenses shall I bring to the Dolomites ?
We recommend bringing a wide angle (zoom) and a tele-zoom lens. The 20 to 200mm range is essential – while 15 – 20mm and 200 – 300mm is recommended.
During the hiking part we recommend to bring only 2 lenses in order to keep the weight down to a minimum.
Can I bring my drone?
Yes, but only outside the National Parks. There are some drone spots, but the Dolomites are still best captured with a normal camera.
How long are the hikes?
The Dolomites Autumn Tour is easy, with the longest hike being a 40-minute trek to Drei Zinnen. Along this hike, people will be able to stop to shoot the views around them. Depending on the total fitness level of the group, some smaller hikes from the departure point of each morning/evening are optional.
Do I need to bring a laptop for the classes?
No, the guides will connect their own laptop to the projector in the hotel.
What will the weather be like?
The weather in the Dolomites varies each year. Temps can be mild with 10+ degrees Celsius during the day but it is also possible that the temperatures will just reach above freezing. At the beginning of the tour, we’ll inform you about the expected weather so that you can be prepared with the best gear for the trip.
Is there a required experience level?
No, we have photographers from all experience levels participating. Whether you ask how to shoot in manual mode, how to take a panorama or how to master the handheld focus stack technique – the guide will always be happy to help and adopt his teaching to each skill level.
