Cultural Photography Tours & Trips in Australia/Oceania

Capture sunrise colors shifting across Uluru's sandstone monolith from great viewing spots in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. You'll photograph 100-year-old Magnetic Termite Mounds and cascading Florence Falls within Litchfield National Park's monsoon forest and document UNESCO-listed rock art by Bininj people at Burrungkuy.

Walk alongside The Solitary Island Marine Park Waterways in Red Rock with Gumbaynggirr guides who share traditional songs and native plant uses through cultural storytelling. At Port Macquarie's Koala Hospital you'll see rehabilitation efforts, then check out the Natural Bridge rock arch formed by waterfalls in Springbrook National Park and the 665-meter Sea Cliff Bridge extending over the ocean.

You'll start with a Welcome to Country ceremony at Nyanda Waterhole Reserve near Brisbane, where Aboriginal guides walk you through ancient traditions and let you try bush tucker. Then head north to Cairns to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef's colorful coral—it's 135,135 miles of 3,000 reefs. Back south, check out Melbourne's street art and the Shrine of Remembrance before a private tour of the Sydney Opera House.

You'll photograph ancient Aboriginal rock art at Ubirr in Kakadu National Park and capture 50,000+ glowing bulbs at Uluru's Field of Light on this 15-day cultural photography trip. Shoot the 348-metre Uluru at sunrise and Kata Tjuta's towering domes at Walpa Gorge, then snap wildlife like sea eagles during a Yellow Water cruise.

You'll see the 2,000-year-old Tāne Mahuta kauri tree standing 51 meters tall in Waipoua Forest, then take an Akaroa harbour cruise to spot seals and penguins. Walk through Hobbiton Movie Set in Waikato with 44 furnished Hobbit holes, photograph Milford Sound's waterfalls, and ride the TSS Earnslaw steamship across Lake Wakatipu.
