Join us for a photography expedition to the untamed Wild West Coast of Te Wai Pounamu, New Zealand’s South Island. This remote region, framed by the Southern Alps to the east and pristine white beaches pounded by the Southern Ocean to the west, boasts ancient rainforests, serene lakes, and meandering rivers. Here, the raw power of nature is always on display: colossal glaciers carve their way through the landscape, while braided rivers flow swiftly across lush green plains, eventually merging with the sea. Water is a constant presence, and untouched wetlands provide a sanctuary for a diverse array of bird species. Our 3-day private photography tour offers a glimpse into this extraordinary environment. Tailored to accommodate weather conditions, lighting, and your photography expertise, our goal is for you to capture images you’ll proudly showcase. With 2 nights in Fox, we are well-placed to explore the ancient forests, rivers, lakes and the wild coast under the majestic alps.

The name Maniototo, derived from Māori, is said to mean `plains of blood’ and refers to the `flowing’ red tussocks that cover the land. This region inspires Graeme Sydney, painter of some of New Zealand’s most iconic landscapes. Home to tiny towns and locations that once swarmed with settlers, toiling to win riches from this sparse, rugged and graphic landscape. Imposing mountain ranges edge the wide splendour of the Maniototo Plain. Candid skies of brilliant blue dance across the land. A tantalising magenta sunset slides behind flinty, tussock-clad ranges when evening falls. Humble farming settlements are dotted thinly across the plain, huddled on long, straight roads that never end. Isolated they may be, but these are involved, connected communities where people look out for each other. Steeped in nature’s rhythms, locals share an enduring bond with this place. The sweeping silent spaces, the contrasting hues of seasonal changes & the expansive beauty of starry black nights.
