My wife and I were absolutely thrilled with this day tour. Martin, our tour guide, did an outstanding job. He took us to places that we would not have gone on our own. One such place was Skippers Canyon. We would never have driven that ourselves. The scenery was magnificent!
He also showed us photo tips on our smartphones that were very helpful; features we didn't know about.
The tour was money and time well spent. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Thank you, Martin.
Kind regards, Dave and Helen Horner, Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA.

The entire tour was filled with incredible scenery. The highlight was going down Skippers Road. It is a road we would never drive ourselves and it was awesome! Martin, our guide, handled the road really well. Martin also showed us how to take better photos with our smartphones and showed us tips and features we didn't know about. We enjoyed the 5-1/2 hour excursion very much. It was time well spent!

We booked a photo tour of areas that most people wouldn’t go, to capture unique images. We were highly delighted with not only the tour locations but the personalised and engaging explanations of the flora, fauna, local stories and histories en route. Martin, our driver and guide; was excellent tutoring, driving and advising on images. We went off-road into stunning high country which offered excellent picture opportunities, can’t wait to process. Summer was brilliant, would love to return in winter! Highly recommended and would love to repeat with Martin again if back in New Zealand.

Martin Kohn was excellent and lovely guy. I re-learned a lot about photography that I had forgotten and got to see a beautiful area near Queenstown.

I arrived in Queenstown in the morning, and did not want to waste half a day so I booked the half day tour. Turned out to be a great decision! Martin is a phenomenal photographer, and knew the area really well. Learned some cool photography pointers as well! We went to Skippers Canyon which is just an amazing place to see and take photos. The only thing I didn't like about my tour was it was too short!!! If I end up coming back to Queenstown, I will definitely book a full day tour and see the other spots.

Martin was absolutely wonderful! It was so refreshing to be on a photography focused tour where I had the time to get the perfect shot in each location. He was very knowledgable about all areas and types of photography and even helped me understand my own camera better. It was a delightful 5 hours, I got beyond amazing shots, and his border collie was an extra bonus! Cannot recommend this tour enough for both the budding and die-hard photography enthusiast!

This photography tour was great. Martin, my photographer guide, took me to Skippers Canyon on its old mining road, one that is rated as the 7th most dangerous road in the world. But not only is Martin an expert photographer, he is also an excellent driver, so no worries on the road. He knew just where to stop to take the best photos of the spectacular canyon. If your love is taking photos, this tour is for you.
