By request and custom photo tours
 

 Would you like your own private photography tour? If the answer is 'yes', please read on . . .

WHERE TO, AND FOR WHO?
 Whether it be to a destination already listed in my photography tour calendar, or others such as Iceland, Japan, India, Zimbabwe and so on, I can customize any tour to your specifications.
 This service is designed for Camera Clubs, Photographic Societies, or groups of friends or folk preferring to travel alone.

DISCOUNTS
 Customized groups of 4 or more benefit from a discounted rate of 10% based upon our regular trip pricing as per the trips listed under photography tour calendar. For groups of 3 or less, the small group supplements still apply!
Client loyalty discounts of $100 to $200 still apply for all previous clients. Go here for details.
 Is there a 'non-photographer' spouse/significant-other that would like to accompany you? Yes?, then they are welcome to join you and get a 5 to 10% discount on their cost. For more details go here.
 If things aren't clear then feel free to request a quote. Please include details such as the trip location, length of trip, and how many people you expect to make up your group.

ITINERARIES
 Please note that an existing itinerary can be tweaked at no charge, but should you want a completely new itinerary a $250 deposit is required before I put everything together for you.
 The $250 is applied to your total cost if you take the trip, but is non-refundable if you cancel. Please be aware that I do not have the resources to freely assemble itineraries unless you are completely serious about photo travel with Travel Images. To this end a non-refundable $250 deposit is required before proceeding with step two, see below, but is applied to your total cost if you take the trip.

DEPOSITS
'By request' deposits are 50% for any size of group once you have agreed to the quoted rate and the outline of your customized itinerary. Until your deposit has been received your requested dates cannot be reserved. All other terms and conditions apply as outlined here except for credit card/online deposits. There is a 3% credit card fee for US based clients, and 4% for international clients. To avoid the fees you can pay your deposit by check.

HOW TO A EARN FREE TRIP FOR YOURSELF
 This applies to trips of over 7 nights, and a minimum of 6 people including yourself. Discounts per person do not apply if you choose this option.
 Before you round up your friends with a sharp spear, I first need to know to know where you intend to travel, for how long, and how many people do you expect in your group including yourself. Once I have an outline of these basic facts, I can then make a commitment to you in writing.
 If your group number falls short of the size you proposed, we will revert to giving each client a 10% discount plus any other applicable discounts.

YA' JUST GOTTA GET OUT OF TOWN SOON?!
 Please know that I can assemble a custom trip at very short notice. Just ask as I have a 'can do' attitude!

TELL ME ABOUT IT
 Email me if you're interested in having me assemble a personal itinerary. If you wish, I can then make it available to the remainder of my photography clients if you happen to have a small group, or if you request I do so. Generally though, 3 or more participants works best for everyone from an economic standpoint.

THE STEPS . . .

STEP 1:  Send an e-mail with the information below included. With those details I can estimate costs and provide a quote. Nothing is booked at this time, and the trip details provided will constitute of the number of nights for your trip, the overnight locations, and the cost estimate.

In your email please include:
 Your name, address, and phone number
 When?:  Time of year, and a second option
 Where to?:  One destination or several?
 
Existing itinerary?:  If so, which one?
 How long for?:  A few days? 2 weeks? More?
 Number of people in your group?:  Costs decline with each additional traveler
 Your specific interests?:  Landscape? Nature? Urban? Wildlife?
 Preferred pace of trip?:  One night in each spot? More thorough?
 Air fares:  I recommend you book these yourself, though I can do so on request
 Anything else I should know?:  With detailed information I can quote quickly and accurately.

STEP 2:  If you approve of the quote we can then move onto step two which requires an enrollment form and a $250 deposit. To accomplish this I will most likely request a little more detail to finish the step 2 outline. It is also fine to add or subtract days to suit your travel goals and budget at any time, as I will of course, compile the itinerary best suited to your preferences.

STEP 3:  After your 50% deposit is received I will finalize the itinerary and reserve rooms, flights, land transport etcetera.

Important:
o  Please note that I do not have the resources to freely assemble itineraries unless you are completely serious about photo travel with Travel Images. To this end a non-refundable $250 deposit is required before proceeding with step two, but is applied to your total cost if you take the trip.
o  Deposits can be made online here. I also accept credit card payments over the phone or via e-mail. Checks also accepted.
o  Clients are met at the gateway airport closest to the given destination
o  I lead all trips myself except for the larger groups when I will bring along an assistant/s.
o  I welcome requests to change the dates or itinerary etcetera, at any time.

Thank you for considering Travel Images for you photography travel.
