These are tours dedicated to enthusiast or professional photographers, who want to discover and photograph the rich fauna of Danube Delta. This program includes 3 days of boat trips plus the two boat transfers from Tulcea to Mila23 and return.
It is a photography tour, with flexible routes according to Danube Delta conditions, weather, water level or any other field information. Also, we can adapt the schedule according to bird flocks spots, the species of birds you would like to photograph or other types of attractions you want to photograph. We can spend more time in one place, track and photograph different birds and/or animals.
We are going with up to 4 people on a boat with 4 double benches (one person per line of seats). Every photographer can shoot on any direction.

Accommodation
Your accommodation for this photo tour is made in double or single rooms (by your request), in one of our exclusive locations in Mila23 Village, Danube Delta. All the guesthouses are 3* rated, have small capacity (7-8 rooms), owned and run by locals, offers authentic local food. All room have en-suite bathrooms.
The boat
This trip is done with an OPEN BOAT, low level side, to be able to shoot almost from the water level.
The boat we are using for this photo tour has been built specifically for this activity. The boat is very stable, it has a lot of room, equipped with 4 benches with backrests and pillows. All tour participants will change places between them during the photo sessions, so each one of you will be seated at a time on the first or last bench.
All photographers will be sitting on the benches facing the direction of travel, with a very high freedom of movement and the field of view unobstructed. The height at which you can take pictures is 40cm above the water; you will look the pelicans straight in the eyes.
The tour
Our photo tours are done at low speed, we will not be chasing birds, we will not race. The guide knows very well what to do when you need to take a picture and will put the boat in a position favorable for everyone. If we encounter bird flocks spots, we will stay anchored or tied to the shore until we exhaust all desired topics; we are not limited to achieving a certain route.
