What weโre about
Hello & welcome to UK Photo Tours.
UKPT runs small-group photographic landscape, wildlife, and astrophotography workshops and photo tours, offering personalized tuition in some of the most stunning locations across the UK. (max 5 participants for multi-day trips)
Under UK Photo Tours, we run multi-day tours and workshops, traveling to Englandโs picturesque Lake District, photographing nightscapes in Norfolk, the rugged Jurassic Coast in Dorset, and Scotlandโs incredible Isle of Skye and Glencoe for the breathtaking scenery.
Our wildlife workshops venture to some of the most spectacular wildlife locations in the UK, such as witnessing the birth of Atlantic Grey Seal Pups in Norfolk, charismatic Puffins on the Farne Islands, and the Norfolk Snettisham Spectacular, where over 100,000 wading birds take to the air.
We offer a variety of popular day trips during the year, including:
Stonehenge at sunset
Bodiam Castle
Vintage Airshows
Medieval Jousting
We've operated international tours and workshops since 2014, specializing in the UK but also extending to trips to Iceland and Australia.
UKPT is proud to be supported by Kase filters and clients are able to use a loan set each for the duration of their tour. We're the exclusive UK tour supplier to one of the largest and highest-rated tour companies in the world, Iceland Photo Tours, and we are listed on both VisitScotland and VisitBritain's tourism websites.
A list of our current tours, workshops, and photography vacations can be found here.
Private tours are available.
We look forward to seeing you at one of our events soon.

Scotland Photo Tour - 8 day Isle of Skye & Glencoe, dept lnverness

Join us on our amazing photo tour (limited to just 5 participants) to seize the captivating beauty of Scotland's Highland landscapes!
7-night hotel accommodation & meals included.
Scotland's untamed wilderness has always stirred the adventurous spirit. It's a must-visit for photographers seeking stunning visuals that need to be witnessed in person to be truly appreciated. We'll traverse from the majestic formations of The Isle of Skye to the tranquil charm of Glencoe, uncovering both famed sites and hidden treasures in the splendid Scottish Highlands.
Our eight-day adventure begins in Inverness, with a stop at the picturesque Eileen Donan Castle on our way to the enchanting Isle of Skye. Here, we'll encounter remarkable geological formations such as The Quiraing and the Old Man of Storr that offer a peek into a bygone geological era. Skye is rich with volcanic crags shaped over thousands of years into distinctive forms, presenting countless photo opportunities. We'll also visit famous locations such as the radiant Fairy Pools, the Fairy Glen, and the picturesque Neist Point Lighthouse. Few places offer such a diverse range of spectacular shots to enrich your portfolio or refine your photography skills.
After visiting the Glenfinnan Viaduct to watch the famous "Hogwarts Express" from Harry Potter slowly cross for an iconic shot, we head to Glencoe for three days, where we'll explore the famous valley with its lochs and waterfalls. We'll also travel to visit more stunning castles, such as Kilchurn Castle (aptly situated on Loch Awe) and Castle Stalker, which has been featured in multiple films.

During the day we will visit the powerful Aira Force, the most famous of the Lakesโ waterfalls, falling 70ft below a slate bridge into a rock pool & surrounded by Victorian landscaping.
๐๐๐ฒ ๐ โ Derwent Water
Crow Park will start our day for sunrise looking down Derwent Water with Borrowdale Valley and the surrounding Fells beyond. Nearby is Isthmus Bay where you will find the remains of some concrete jetties looking towards the Cumbrian Mountains. Other options for later in the day are Ashness Jetty or Tewet Tarn.
๐๐๐ฒ ๐ โ Buttermere
This morning we will head for Buttermere and once again put those Kase ND filters to work capturing the famous lone tree with tranquil views across the lake, followed by a short journey up the lake where we will have views of Char Hut and the autumn colors on the mosaic slopes of Haystacks. Later in the day, we will explore the Southern shore of Crummock Water with several composition options of rocks or trees to choose from.
๐๐๐ฒ ๐ โ Great Langdale
Weโll start the day at the River Brathay near Elterwater hoping for a touch of mist at sunrise with a couplet of oak trees and a small copse reflecting in the calm water. Later we will head down the Great Langdale Valley towards Side Pike & Blea Tarn both of which have gorgeous views of the Langdale Pikes.
๐๐๐ฒ 6 - Lowther Castle
Our last full day will see us visit another great location in the morning and our afternoon will be visiting Lowther Castle or a similar attraction.
Day 7 - We'll look at returning to locations suitable for the weather on the day, with the intent of capturing better shots, or images with different conditions.
๐๐๐ฒ 8 โ Return Journey
For our final day in the stunning Lake District, we will begin with a visit to Tewet Tarn, or even Castlerigg Stone Circle for sunrise with views towards Blencathra and Skiddaw fells. We'll then say goodbye to Keswick & journey back to London with full memory cards and many happy memories.
