An all-inclusive journey designed for photographers and curious travelers seeking beauty, meaning, and connection.
Acclaimed travel photographer Ron B. Wilson invites a small, thoughtfully curated group of travelers to join him on a rare 12-day photography tour through Bhutan, one of the world’s last truly unspoiled destinations. This is not a rush-through itinerary or a checklist-style tour, but a journey shaped by intention, presence, and story.
The experience begins in Kathmandu, Nepal, where the group will gather and travel together into Bhutan — a country where prayer flags dance on mountaintops, ancient temples cling to cliffs, and daily life unfolds with reverence and grace. From the moment you arrive, Bhutan invites you to slow down, look closer, and engage more deeply with the world around you.
From November 23 to December 4, 2026, participants will explore Bhutan’s breathtaking Himalayan landscapes, sacred monasteries, remote villages, and vibrant cultural festivals. Highlights of the journey include a pilgrimage to the iconic Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang), intimate time in rural communities, and immersive encounters with Bhutanese culture and tradition.
Throughout the journey, travelers will also gain insight into Bhutan’s guiding philosophy of Gross National Happiness — a worldview that places spiritual well-being, community, and balance with nature above material wealth. It’s a perspective that naturally reshapes how one travels, photographs, and ultimately sees the world.
Ron B. Wilson brings more than 30 years of experience as a professional photographer and visual storyteller, having worked across nearly 50 countries. His career spans travel, documentary, portraiture, and humanitarian photography, with long-standing collaborations with organizations such as Photographers Without Borders, First Steps Himalaya, and Beyond the Clouds. His work is grounded in cultural sensitivity, patience, and a deep respect for the people and places he photographs.
A two-time featured speaker at the Xposure International Photography Festival and author of Resilience: Stories and Lessons from an Ardent Photographer, Ron is widely known for his generous, thoughtful teaching style. On this journey, he will guide participants in developing a more intentional photographic practice — one rooted not just in technique, but in listening, observing, and earning the image.
“This journey isn’t just about making great photographs,” says Wilson.
“It’s about slowing down, being fully present, and allowing the beauty and stillness of Bhutan to shape the way you see. In a world that feels increasingly loud and disconnected, Bhutan offers clarity, humility, and profound human connection.”
The tour is open to photographers of all experience levels, from smartphone shooters and enthusiasts to seasoned professionals. Instruction is adaptive and supportive, meeting each participant where they are in their creative journey. The experience is as much about learning how to see as it is about learning how to photograph.
This small-group, all-inclusive experience covers accommodations, in-country transportation, expert local guides, meals, logistics, and curated cultural access, allowing participants to focus fully on the experience rather than the details. Space is intentionally limited to preserve intimacy, flexibility, and meaningful engagement.
For those seeking a photography tour that blends culture, education, service, and soulful travel, this journey through Bhutan offers something rare: a chance to return home not only with compelling images, but with a deeper understanding of place, people, and self.
