Update to this review...... when I did my photo book one of my full spreadsheet pages was one of the pictures I took while on the photo guide tour and everyone loved it they said the picture was amazing so again I can't thank Paul and Denali Photo Guides enough! Paul was an exceptionally knowledgeable photographer, willing to share tips and tricks. Took us to lesser known areas, to get shots and help us getter better shots! We even saw two moose, which we were able to photograph from different angles. My husband and I were extremely pleased with our photo journey and would highly recommend. I learned more about my real camera and now my husband learned how to take pics with his phone....and it kills me to say, but he got the better moose shot! We had a fabulous time!

Paul Martin was our guide for this small group tour (3 people) and the experience was excellent. I am thrilled with the photos I was able to capture. Paul knew the best places to take us, and being an incredible photographer, was able to offer lots of useful advice. Not just for pros; one woman came with just her cell phone. I highly recommend this tour company. Our tour was Denali: Colors of Sunset. Fred DeGregorio

Our guide, Tyler, was amazing! He transported our party to several sites for the scenery, or animals, He was thorough, and very patient, in helping us with settings and composition! This was the bar that we based the rest of our excursions on, and very few other trips came close!

Todd the guide is very friendly and easy to work with. We saw moose and plenty of birds! However, the spots he chose were very far from where the birds were perched, even with a long lens, so it was difficult getting good pictures of them. For this issue, I suggest setting up sticks in the pond in advance for the birds to perch on. Photographing the other animals went without issue and, overall, I had a great time!
