custom full or half day photo tours

Welcome to Vancouver Island Photo Tours.  I have been a professional photographer based on Vancouver Island for over 19 years.  I offer private customized tours for photographers and tourists alike that want to explore & create in the difficult to find locations on Vancouver Island.  The service includes myself, our new 2025 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD 4x4 (if around Victoria, our Kia Soul will be used), and bottled water (lunch and snacks are included with full day trips).  I also have a built-in fridge in the Chevy to make your experience more enjoyable (cold water on hot days!).  Pick up and drop off at the Victoria International Airport or BC Ferries terminal at Swartz Bay (Sidney / North Saanich) is also included.

Photo Tours are offered on a full day and half basis with multiple days being accepted.  Second (or third) person travelling on the same trip is half price.  Note, mileage is additional and billed separately and varies depending on where we travel on the Island and current fuel prices.  Vancouver Island can take around 8 hours to drive from top to bottom ... and that is one way!  Additionally, I am ICBC insured and licensed to transport people for adventure tours.  My vehicle is also ICBC safety inspected every 6 months.

Any questions, please email directly.  I am happy to answer your questions.
