Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Tristan — photographer, wanderer, and seeker of stories.

Remote Expeditions was born from years on the road, camera in hand, heart wide open. I believe travel should go beyond checklists — it should inspire, connect, and change us.

Every journey I design is slow, intentional, and crafted with love — with real encounters, soulful photography, and a deep respect for nature and local culture.

Colombia Photography Tour 2026

Top notch photographic experience for enthusiasts of nature, culture, and portraits. Tristan is well connected to the area and the local communities with a specialty in indigenous tribes and less-visited areas. Additionally, he is an excellent teacher and will provide incredibly helpful instruction on exposure, lighting, and composition. Our tour was incredibly well organized and ran on time, with full days of photography. I fully recommend Remote Expeditions for your photographic travels!

You are in good hands with Tristan!

Tristan does an amazing job at putting together a culturally rich experience. He also does a great job at adapting to his clients needs and interests. He responds well to feedback. He is both professional and personable. I feel as though I had the opportunity not only to photograph many different elements of Colombia, but that I truly experienced the country and its culture. Our adventure took us from birding in the mountains outside of Cali, to visiting remote indigenous tribes, to visiting active fishing villages, to learning about local and historical musicians and customs, to beautiful settings in the mountains and along the seashore.

I give Tristan the highest recommendation as a guide for Colombia.

Colombia Birding Tour

I visited Colombia with Tristan of Remote Expeditions and would highly recommend him. He put together a wonderful itinerary with great knowledge of the areas and attention to details to give us a wonderful sampling of the country. He is personally very gentle and fun by nature and you will return home feeling very happy and satisfied. Whatever your special interest is, I’m sure he can make an itinerary to exceed your goals.

Frequently Asked Question

I design small-group and private journeys centred on photography, wildlife, culture, trekking, and slower travel. Most of my work is in Latin America. Some trips have a particular focus; others bring several interests together. The starting point is what you want to experience and the pace at which you want to travel.

For travellers who want time to pay attention. You may love photography, or simply want to explore a place without rushing from one stop to the next. If the people you travel with, the rhythm of the days, and a personal relationship with your guide matter to you, we are likely to have a good conversation.

Yes. A private journey can be designed around your interests, preferred pace, and practical needs. On a small-group departure, the route has a shared plan, but I still make room to respond to the people, light, weather, and encounters along the way. I’ll be clear about which parts can be adapted before you commit.

You can speak directly with me, Tristan, about the journey you are considering. I design the route and draw on local guides and partners where their knowledge matters. Before you book, I’ll explain who will lead your particular departure and who will be with you on the ground.

Explore a journey that interests you, then tell me what you have in mind—even if it is still a loose idea. Where would you like to go? Who would travel with you? What would make the trip feel right? I’ll help you work out whether an existing journey fits or whether a private itinerary makes more sense.
