PERU Flower Photography Tour & Workshop

We’ll meet at Lima Airport around 10:00 AM and begin our scenic journey into the Peruvian mountains. After checking in, there will be time to relax before our welcome dinner at a local restaurant.

Day 2 begins with a sunrise shoot from our balcony, using telephoto lenses to capture the snow-covered Andes. We’ll then continue to our mountain lodge, which we’ll have entirely to ourselves. For sunset, we’ll photograph a nearby lake and stream beneath the towering peaks before returning for dinner in our private restaurant.

Day 3 takes us to our “secret garden”—a beautiful valley filled with wildflowers, flowing water and 6,000-metre peaks. With dozens of compositions to discover, everyone will have plenty of space to explore.

Later, we’ll visit several mountain viewpoints. Some peaks rise to almost 6,700 metres, nearly four kilometres above us. We’ll finish at a lower viewpoint for sunset and, if conditions are right, stay to photograph the night sky.

Day 4 begins with a 2.5-kilometre hike, gaining around 300 metres before reaching our sunrise location. A gentle river flows beneath a 6,300-metre peak, surrounded by flowers, trees and reflective pools.

After returning to the lodge, we’ll pack and meet our team of porters. Together, we’ll hike into a remote hidden valley that we’ll have entirely to ourselves, set up camp and photograph sunset beneath the mountains.

Day 5 begins with an incredible sunrise shoot beneath the snow-covered peaks. After breakfast, the porters will pack the tents and carry the camping equipment back down.

We’ll then travel to our next area, check into our hotel and recharge our batteries. Laptops, spare clothing and other non-essential gear can be stored securely here until we return on Day 9.

After an early 1.5-hour drive, we’ll meet our support team of donkey drivers, horses and a private chef. They’ll carry our food, luggage and camping equipment, allowing us to enjoy the hike with a lighter load.

The trek covers 12 kilometres with 750 metres of elevation gain, gradually following a river towards its glacial source. We have the full day, so we can walk comfortably and take plenty of breaks.

Our camp sits at the foot of Paradise Mountain. After arriving, we’ll photograph the surrounding peaks before enjoying dinner in our private dining tent.

These two days are dedicated to photographing Paradise Mountain and its incredible surroundings. Viewpoints are scattered throughout the valley, from easy locations near camp to higher positions around 500 metres above us.

The area offers everything from intimate foregrounds and reflections to huge panoramic views. With plenty of flexibility, we can follow the best light and weather each day.

Our private chef will prepare breakfast, lunch, dinner, coffee, drinks and snacks throughout our stay. Two toilets will also be available near camp.

During the afternoons, we may see Andean condors soaring above the valley. With wingspans reaching 3.3 metres, they are spectacular to watch and photograph.

On Day 9, we’ll pack up camp and hike back to town. Our support team will carry the equipment, while pre-arranged horses will be available for anyone who requested one.

We’ll return to our hotel, collect our stored luggage and enjoy a comfortable final evening together.

On Day 10, we’ll leave early for Lima Airport, taking home unforgettable memories and a collection of photographs from one of the world’s most spectacular mountain regions.
