Expert Guide
With a combination of recent travels in the region, a current artistic practice focused on dramatic landscapes, and a former career as a travel professional, Ingrid Bowen looks forward to accompanying a group of travellers on an art and landscape lovers adventure.
Welcoming Host
Operating in a small group gives us the flexibility to accommodate conditions and the interests of the group.
Small Groups
Your schedule is generous in order to be able to stop, look & explore along the way. Discuss the landscape and cultural points of interest with John.
Generous Schedule
Feel the benefits of being off grid and fully immersed in nature during the camping component.
Get Off The Grid
Most days there will be time to spend on your own project - be it sketching, reading, photography, writing, or just relaxing!
Project Time
Plans may need to adapt due to weather or cultural events.
