Patagonia in 2019 has been a wonderful outdoor experience combined with great photography opportunities to me!First, we hiked and camped in the national park, staying near beautiful (yet not overrun!) photo locations, which made shooting at sunrise very enjoyable.Later on in Torres del Paine, we stayed in a hotel from where we could reach various photo spots easily by car and by foot.We were taken great care of by our guides Marco and Jessica, both with regards to our well-being as well as during photography sessions.I had a great and productive time and I’m sure I’ll join again soon for another photography adventure. Thank you!

Being on the tour with Marco was really amazing. He is a very good guide, always ready to help you, whether it is carrying something, lending you some wipes for cleaning your lens, and of of course helping you with photography. Whenever we were at a location he gave us the time and space to do our own shoot, but in the meanwhile he searched for new compositions. And I often heard him shouting, “Luka come over here; there is also a very good spot.” I felt very safe with him. He cares about everyone in his group. And of course he is a really talented photographer with an amazing feeling for composition and light. And the result is you come home with dozens of good photos. I mean really good photos

I chose the Patagonia tour expecting some particular photospots aside the well-known views and I have not been disappointed. An outstanding trip that takes you to breathtaking places and that gives you amazing photo opportunities. Max & Marco were always in a good mood and helpful to the tour participants when needed. It was also inspiring to discuss opinions and approaches since both are extraordinary and experienced landscape photographers. Thank you for the great time!

Having visited the Dolomites in Italy with Max as well as visiting Patagonia through him, I can hand on heart thoroughly recommend Max’ tours. I’m pleased to say that these tours are easily some of the best I’ve ever had the good fortune of attending. This was in large part down to how down-to-Earth and approachable Max and his crew are. We went above and beyond in trying to capture something truly unique during our ventures and I picked up a wealth of information from both trips, all whilst making some real friends for life.

Patagonia is somewhere I have wanted to visit for a long time with my camera and Max/ Marco’s tour certainly lived up to expectations. The first part of the tour was camping, this is the best way to maximise your time in Parque National Los Glaciares so this was a big plus plus it felt like luxury when we had a lodge in Chile. Also in Patagonia you have to expect changeable weather and, while we got to all the prime locations in the best light, it was the scouting, knowledge and experience that also allowed us to get as much as possible out of this tour and manage to find some interesting locations when the weather was not ideal. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Max/ Marco’s tour to anyone with a sense of adventure.

We were absolutely blown away by how beautiful Patagonia was and we got photos that were beyond anything any of us expected. The Porter service carrying our stuff during the hike was a great idea - it helped us to make the hiking much easier and comfortable. The light, the colors, the mountains, the rivers, the interesting trees, shapes, all were like you had walked into a perfect scene that had been crafted for photography. We learned a ton on this trip which far exceeded my expectations!
