Alaska – Fishing Bears 2027

Photography Tour

You know the images and the situation: Alaska Brown Bears – splashing, catching fish, snorkeling in rivers, running here and running there. It’s action-packed wildlife photography at its best but there’s a gamble – when will the salmon run? Which rivers will they be in? Where are the bears? On this photo tour, we take this gamble out as we stay at a remote lodge in range of over 100 known locations where Salmon run. Each day, we fly in to the most productive spots and move with the bears as they move. At unique locations, away from crowds and time limits, this is an experience like no other!
