Overview

Embark on an unforgettable 7-day photography adventure on the enchanting Madeira Island, a paradise designed by nature for photographers. This tour, crafted with the keen eye of a seasoned photographer, promises to capture the island’s diverse beauty from sunrise to sunset. Our journey begins and ends in Santa Cruz, near the vibrant city of Funchal, but the magic lies in the destinations we explore in between.

We’ll delve into the mystical Fanal forest, visiting twice to maximize our chances of capturing its ethereal beauty. In Santana, the iconic traditional houses offer a picturesque glimpse into Madeira’s rich heritage. Our sunsets will be spectacular from Pico Ruivo, the island’s highest peak, where we’ll have two opportunities to frame the perfect shot. Seixal’s panoramic views and unique swimming pools, alongside the breathtaking seascapes of Porto Moniz, provide endless inspiration. As dawn breaks, we’ll be at Ribeira da Janela, ready to capture the first light over the dramatic coastline, and at Miradouro do Guindaste for another stunning sunrise. Finally, the rugged cliffs and sweeping views at Ponta São Lourenço will be the perfect grand finale to our photographic journey. Join us in discovering the hidden gems of Madeira, where every location tells a story through your lens.

Logistics & Homework

Practical Information

Yellow Fever Vaccination

The most important vaccine to consider for Colombia is Yellow Fever. While it is not always required for entry into the country if you are arriving directly from North America or Europe, it is highly recommended—and often mandatory—if your itinerary includes coastal national parks (such as Tayrona), the Amazon, or other low-altitude regions under 2,300 meters. If this applies to your tour, you must receive the vaccine at least 10 days prior to arrival and carry your physical International Certificate of Vaccination (the yellow card) with you.

Routine and Recommended Immunizations

To ensure a safe and comfortable trip, health authorities generally recommend being up-to-date on standard childhood vaccines, along with a few travel-specific boosters:

Hepatitis A and Typhoid: Highly recommended for all travelers to Colombia to protect against food and water-borne illnesses.
Tetanus: Ensure your booster is up to date (within the last 10 years) before departure.
Malaria: Depending on the specific destinations on your tour (especially low-lying rural or jungle areas), malaria preventative medication may be advised.

When to Consult a Professional

Because vaccine requirements can change and depend heavily on your personal medical history, we recommend scheduling an appointment with a travel clinic or your doctor at least 4 to 6 weeks before your departure. This ensures you have plenty of time to get any required doses and that they are fully effective by the time you land.

Detailed Trip Notes, including practical tips, cultural insights, and a complete packing list will be sent to you 60 days before departure.

Testimonials

What a wonderful Trip !

What a wonderful trip. Tristan is such a lovely person and well organised.

We had a wonderful trip around the Sierra Nevada in Colombia, up to Camarones and even Mompox. We visited so many places and met so many great people and communities.

It was FANTASTIC.

I highly recommand Remote Expeditions and Tristan for any trip you intend to plan

Excellent Travel & Photography Guide

Tristan created a wonderful cultural experience for us over a 10 day visit to Cuba. From a photography perspective, he had researched people and locations to insure the best model, in the most cuban environment in the best light. Although we were focused on photography, he rounded out the tour with opportunities to experience the history (visit to old sugar plantation), the land (visit to a farm with oxen and a hike to waterfall), and the food (experiencing local food and drink in beautiful settings). I would highly recommend Tristan as a guide. We are already planning our next trip with him.

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.

Tristan Quevilly

In 2024, I immersed myself in Madeira, meticulously exploring the island to scout its most photogenic corners. This tour is uniquely crafted in collaboration with my friend Mathieu, a fellow photographer and travel expert who has lived in Madeira for 5 years. Together, we've combined my fresh scouting insights with his deep, intimate knowledge of the island's hidden gems, best viewpoints, and fantastic local restaurants. Our joint expertise ensures an itinerary rich in photographic opportunities. Fluent in Portuguese from two years living in Brazil, I'm excited to guide you smoothly through Madeira's stunning landscapes and vibrant culture.
